SoftTimers – A collection of software timers to easily compute elapsed time since an event occurred

Introduction

The following article is about my simplest library that I wrote for the arduino: SoftTimers. The SoftTimers arduino library allows one to properly time multiple events and know when each “timer” expires meaning that an action is required.

AnyRtttl arduino library

AnyRtttl – A feature rich arduino library for playing RTTTL melodies

Introduction

The following article is about yet another Arduino library that I have written. AnyRtttl is a feature rich arduino library for playing RTTTL melodies. The library offers much more interesting features than relying on the widely available void play_rtttl(char *p) function. The AnyRtttl is a feature rich library which supports all best RTTTL features.

Arduino-win32Arduino-library

win32Arduino: a win32 library that implements most arduino functions

Introduction

Please note that win32Arduino source code is now moved to GitHub. Source code can be downloaded from the project’s GitHub page.

After implementing many arduino library, I realized that unit testing a library is harder than I though. Most of the time, the library does not even require advanced arduino functionalities and could be tested outside of the arduino platform.

The win32Arduino is a solution to this issue.

Arduino RcReceiverSignal library

RcReceiverSignal: an arduino library for retrieving the RC Transmitter value from an RC Receiver pulse

Introduction

The following arduino library was written to use the findings found during the Mapping RC Transmitter PWM signal to actual transmitter values article. All results were wrapped into a library for ease of use.

The RcReceiverSignal is an arduino library that allows one to read a signal sent from a Remote Controlled (RC) receiver.

Arduino BitReader library

BitReader – An arduino library for reading & writing data as chunks of bits

Introduction

Here is another arduino library that I have written.

As a desktop developer, I am not used to have memory (or even CPU) requirements as most developers will not look at memory consumption as an arduino developer would. Memory & CPU is cheap. If your application is struggling to run on today’s computer, it will run smoothly in 1-2 years.

As most arduino developers have faced, the amount of memory available on embedded devices is pretty limited. Having a way to save bits or our precious memory is interesting.

BitReader is an arduino library that allows one to read or write data as chunks of bits.
