Not at all. Here is what you are after:

Espruino is a JavaScript interpreter for low-power Microcontrollers. This site is both a support community for Espruino and a place to share what you are working on.

RDY Pin which is something set by the sensor and keeps changing by IQS263 sensor. So MCU can request a I2C communication window when this pin goes down. That is the reason why while loop will not be an infinite.
What my goal is to perform i2c read/write only when this PIN goes gown, that means I have to put some wait and poll the pin until it goes LOW.
I see lots of implementation for this sensor in C/C++ where people set the falling interrupt on RDY pin and perform read/write.
Since Espruino does not support interrupt directly [ here ]and setWatch callback only executes in main loop [ here ], I only see only option to setup the IRQ optionin setWatch and provide native calls to perform communication to sensor.
Am I making things complicated here? Is there a simple approach available?
