countio

Support for edge counting

The countio module contains logic to read and count edge transistions

Warning

This module is not available in some SAMD21 (aka M0) builds. See the Support Matrix for more info.

All classes change hardware state and should be deinitialized when they are no longer needed if the program continues after use. To do so, either call deinit() or use a context manager. See Lifetime and ContextManagers for more info.

class countio.Counter(pin_a)

Counter will keep track of the number of falling edge transistions (pulses) on a given pin

count :int

The current count in terms of pulses.

deinit(self)

Deinitializes the Counter and releases any hardware resources for reuse.

__enter__(self)

No-op used by Context Managers.

__exit__(self)

Automatically deinitializes the hardware when exiting a context. See Lifetime and ContextManagers for more info.

reset(self)

Resets the count back to 0.
