How to increase pinout switching?
Consider this code:
void loop() {
digitalWrite(pinTest, HIGH);
digitalWrite(pinTest, LOW);
}
On an Arduino Mega 2560, running 16MHz (=0.06us), I would expect the width of the pulse to be ...

How do I control the speed of a 2-wire fan with an Arduino and only a potentiometer?
I am trying to vary the speed of a 2-wire fan by using a Arduino Uno and only a potentiometer.
Initially, I assumed that I could go about doing so by using a code that I used for dimming an LED. When ...

How do you deal with balancing the limited storage of Arduino with the decrease in speed if you just print everything as it gets measured?
I am working on a simple data acquisition system based on an Arduino Uno. Each run would ideally collect up to 10k data points (all doubles). Obviously, the Arduino doesn't have the capacity to hold ...

On an esp8266 what is faster, 64-bit math or float math?
I need to do some math with vars from an attitude sensor (acclerometers and gyroscopes) on an esp8266. int32_t math with those vars does not have enough range and the float math operations are ...

Why can't an Arduino/ATmega328 act as an SPI slave at anywhere approaching the maximum speed claimed in the datasheet?
The ATmega328 datasheet claims a maximum SPI slave speed of Fosc/4. For a chip clocked at 20MHz, that would be 5Mbps.
However, my tests show that even with no processing whatsoever in the interrupt (...

Fastest external High Speed ADC?
I am in a situation close to:
Hi-speed external ADC
But with 100,000 ~ 500,000 samples per second, I don't need more.
I only want to detect changes in 2 sensors, so each loop is only an "...

What is the maximum frequency input signal that I can accurately track on a GPIO pin?
This all started with me wanting to use an Arduino to make a tachometer. This is all now working fine, but it got me wondering what the highest frequency digital signal that I could read?
So I built a ...
