Subject: RE: [PIC] RE: Xpress PIC16F18446 Evaluation Board Hmm That pin toggling test isn't exactly fair. The digitalWrite() functio= n has a fair amount of overhead to accomplish its task on all the different platforms. Error checking, remapping the logical pin to the chip's physical IO pin (PORTx and bit position), disabling any PWM that mig= ht be on, saving and restoring SREG, disabling interrupts... I think I mad= e my point. ;) The pinToggle() function (macro) appears to be fully optimized for one spec= ific platform. Using direct port manipulation, the Arduino running at 16MH= z can toggle an output pin at 4MHz. -----Original Message----- From: piclist-bounces@mit.edu [mailto:piclist-bounces@mit.edu] On Behalf Of= Vicent Colomar Prats Sent: Friday, July 13, 2018 5:48 AM To: Microcontroller discussion list - Public.
