Re: Interrupt documentation

As a beginner I found dbc's first version clearer. Pythoncoder I sent you a PM so as to keep the thread clear for those who know what they're about. As well as describing the interrupt behaviour can this article mention where it's implemented and documented, for resolving any finer points. Is interr...

Re: Interrupt documentation

I'm new to microcontrollers and was attracted by the prospect of pyboard "enabling anyone to quickly prototype hardware projects". So yes it'll be really helpful to have the generic aspects outlined here in addition to the specifics. As well as raising the issues can you point to solutions that novi...

Re: Android device as UI to pyboard

Nice to learn about the M4's DSP instructions - I had assumed this had to be done in s/w. I'm looking forward to when there's a microPython framework for real-time coding without the GC, clock timers etc. intruding, showing how to do I/O with low jitter and process the results. Other threads suggest...

Re: Android device as UI to pyboard

Great info and search terms, including Dan's pic18_serial_io project, thanks to you both. Suppose I make a virtual serial link from pyboard USB port to RPi USB (i.e. without FTDI interface). AIUI I would program the pyboard to boot in CDC+MSC mode, run a 'main' script to sample sensors on a timer in...

Android device as UI to pyboard

I want a pyboard to handle sensors and servos in a real-time application, but don't want to burden the board with handling the user interface as well. Instead I'd like to use a rooted Android ereader to provide slick buttons and display, and pass data both ways over USB. Has something like this been...
