Krzysztof Adamski 35b1359a3a rp2: Use 0=Monday datetime convention in RTC.
The RTC in rp2 can store any, even wrong, number as a weekday in RTC.  It
was, however, discussed in #7394 that we would like to unify all ports and
use 0 as Monday, not Sunday in the machine.RTC implementation.

This patch makes sure that the default date set in RTC is adheres to this
convention.  It also fixes the example in quickref to use proper weekday to
avoid confusion.

Installing MicroPython
----------------------
See the corresponding section of tutorial: :ref:`rp2_intro`. It also includes
a troubleshooting subsection.
General board control
---------------------
The MicroPython REPL is on the USB serial port.
Tab-completion is useful to find out what methods an object has.
Paste mode (ctrl-E) is useful to paste a large slab of Python code into
the REPL.
The :mod:`machine` module::
import machine
machine.freq() # get the current frequency of the CPU
machine.freq(240000000) # set the CPU frequency to 240 MHz
The :mod:`rp2` module::
import rp2
Delay and timing
----------------
Use the :mod:`time <utime>` module::
import time
time.sleep(1) # sleep for 1 second
time.sleep_ms(500) # sleep for 500 milliseconds
time.sleep_us(10) # sleep for 10 microseconds
start = time.ticks_ms() # get millisecond counter
delta = time.ticks_diff(time.ticks_ms(), start) # compute time difference
Timers
------
How do they work?
.. _rp2_Pins_and_GPIO:
Pins and GPIO
-------------
Use the :ref:`machine.Pin <machine.Pin>` class::
from machine import Pin
p0 = Pin(0, Pin.OUT) # create output pin on GPIO0
p0.on() # set pin to "on" (high) level
p0.off() # set pin to "off" (low) level
p0.value(1) # set pin to on/high
p2 = Pin(2, Pin.IN) # create input pin on GPIO2
print(p2.value()) # get value, 0 or 1
p4 = Pin(4, Pin.IN, Pin.PULL_UP) # enable internal pull-up resistor
p5 = Pin(5, Pin.OUT, value=1) # set pin high on creation
UART (serial bus)
-----------------
See :ref:`machine.UART <machine.UART>`. ::
from machine import UART
uart1 = UART(1, baudrate=9600, tx=33, rx=32)
uart1.write('hello') # write 5 bytes
uart1.read(5) # read up to 5 bytes
PWM (pulse width modulation)
----------------------------
How does PWM work on the RPi RP2xxx?
Use the ``machine.PWM`` class::
from machine import Pin, PWM
pwm0 = PWM(Pin(0)) # create PWM object from a pin
pwm0.freq() # get current frequency
pwm0.freq(1000) # set frequency
pwm0.duty_u16() # get current duty cycle, range 0-65535
pwm0.duty_u16(200) # set duty cycle, range 0-65535
pwm0.deinit() # turn off PWM on the pin
ADC (analog to digital conversion)
----------------------------------
How does the ADC module work?
Use the :ref:`machine.ADC <machine.ADC>` class::
from machine import ADC
adc = ADC(Pin(32)) # create ADC object on ADC pin
adc.read_u16() # read value, 0-65535 across voltage range 0.0v - 3.3v
Software SPI bus
----------------
Software SPI (using bit-banging) works on all pins, and is accessed via the
:ref:`machine.SoftSPI <machine.SoftSPI>` class::
from machine import Pin, SoftSPI
# construct a SoftSPI bus on the given pins
# polarity is the idle state of SCK
# phase=0 means sample on the first edge of SCK, phase=1 means the second
spi = SoftSPI(baudrate=100000, polarity=1, phase=0, sck=Pin(0), mosi=Pin(2), miso=Pin(4))
spi.init(baudrate=200000) # set the baudrate
spi.read(10) # read 10 bytes on MISO
spi.read(10, 0xff) # read 10 bytes while outputting 0xff on MOSI
buf = bytearray(50) # create a buffer
spi.readinto(buf) # read into the given buffer (reads 50 bytes in this case)
spi.readinto(buf, 0xff) # read into the given buffer and output 0xff on MOSI
spi.write(b'12345') # write 5 bytes on MOSI
buf = bytearray(4) # create a buffer
spi.write_readinto(b'1234', buf) # write to MOSI and read from MISO into the buffer
spi.write_readinto(buf, buf) # write buf to MOSI and read MISO back into buf
.. Warning::
Currently *all* of ``sck``, ``mosi`` and ``miso`` *must* be specified when
initialising Software SPI.
Hardware SPI bus
----------------
Hardware SPI is accessed via the :ref:`machine.SPI <machine.SPI>` class and
has the same methods as software SPI above::
from machine import Pin, SPI
spi = SPI(1, 10000000)
spi = SPI(1, 10000000, sck=Pin(14), mosi=Pin(13), miso=Pin(12))
spi = SPI(2, baudrate=80000000, polarity=0, phase=0, bits=8, firstbit=0, sck=Pin(18), mosi=Pin(23), miso=Pin(19))
Software I2C bus
----------------
Software I2C (using bit-banging) works on all output-capable pins, and is
accessed via the :ref:`machine.SoftI2C <machine.SoftI2C>` class::
from machine import Pin, SoftI2C
i2c = SoftI2C(scl=Pin(5), sda=Pin(4), freq=100000)
i2c.scan() # scan for devices
i2c.readfrom(0x3a, 4) # read 4 bytes from device with address 0x3a
i2c.writeto(0x3a, '12') # write '12' to device with address 0x3a
buf = bytearray(10) # create a buffer with 10 bytes
i2c.writeto(0x3a, buf) # write the given buffer to the slave
Hardware I2C bus
----------------
The driver is accessed via the :ref:`machine.I2C <machine.I2C>` class and
has the same methods as software I2C above::
from machine import Pin, I2C
i2c = I2C(0)
i2c = I2C(1, scl=Pin(5), sda=Pin(4), freq=400000)
Real time clock (RTC)
---------------------
See :ref:`machine.RTC <machine.RTC>` ::
from machine import RTC
rtc = RTC()
rtc.datetime((2017, 8, 23, 2, 12, 48, 0, 0)) # set a specific date and time
rtc.datetime() # get date and time
WDT (Watchdog timer)
--------------------
Is there a watchdog timer?
See :ref:`machine.WDT <machine.WDT>`. ::
from machine import WDT
# enable the WDT with a timeout of 5s (1s is the minimum)
wdt = WDT(timeout=5000)
wdt.feed()
Deep-sleep mode
---------------
Is there deep-sleep support for the rp2?
The following code can be used to sleep, wake and check the reset cause::
import machine
# check if the device woke from a deep sleep
if machine.reset_cause() == machine.DEEPSLEEP_RESET:
print('woke from a deep sleep')
# put the device to sleep for 10 seconds
machine.deepsleep(10000)
OneWire driver
--------------
The OneWire driver is implemented in software and works on all pins::
from machine import Pin
import onewire
ow = onewire.OneWire(Pin(12)) # create a OneWire bus on GPIO12
ow.scan() # return a list of devices on the bus
ow.reset() # reset the bus
ow.readbyte() # read a byte
ow.writebyte(0x12) # write a byte on the bus
ow.write('123') # write bytes on the bus
ow.select_rom(b'12345678') # select a specific device by its ROM code
There is a specific driver for DS18S20 and DS18B20 devices::
import time, ds18x20
ds = ds18x20.DS18X20(ow)
roms = ds.scan()
ds.convert_temp()
time.sleep_ms(750)
for rom in roms:
print(ds.read_temp(rom))
Be sure to put a 4.7k pull-up resistor on the data line. Note that
the ``convert_temp()`` method must be called each time you want to
sample the temperature.
NeoPixel and APA106 driver
--------------------------
Use the ``neopixel`` and ``apa106`` modules::
from machine import Pin
from neopixel import NeoPixel
pin = Pin(0, Pin.OUT) # set GPIO0 to output to drive NeoPixels
np = NeoPixel(pin, 8) # create NeoPixel driver on GPIO0 for 8 pixels
np[0] = (255, 255, 255) # set the first pixel to white
np.write() # write data to all pixels
r, g, b = np[0] # get first pixel colour
The APA106 driver extends NeoPixel, but internally uses a different colour order::
from apa106 import APA106
ap = APA106(pin, 8)
r, g, b = ap[0]
APA102 (DotStar) uses a different driver as it has an additional clock pin.
