GPIO Control ============ Your OpenMV Cam has between 9 (OpenMV Cam M4) to 10 (OpenMV Cam M7) general purpose I/O pins onboard for talking to the real-world. We're probably going to keep the pin count this low moving into the future to keep the OpenMV Cam tiny. Anyway, there are a few ways to use GPIO pins. As an Input ----------- To use a GPIO pin as an input just do:: import pyb p = pyb.Pin("P0", pyb.Pin.IN) p.value() # Returns 0 or 1. The `pyb.Pin()` constructor creates a pin object which you will use to control the I/O pin on your OpenMV Cam. The string you pass to the OpenMV Cam should be ``P`` and then ``0-8`` for the OpenMV Cam M4 and ``0-9`` for the OpenMV Cam M7. Once you've created the GPIO pin use the `pyb.Pin.value()` method to get the state of the IO pin. Finally, if you need to pull-up or pull-down the IO pin pass `pyb.Pin.PULL_UP` or `pyb.Pin.PULL_DOWN` as additional arguments to `pyb.Pin()` constructor:: p = pyb.Pin("P0", pyb.Pin.IN, pyb.Pin.PULL_UP) As an Output ------------ Now, to use a GPIO pin as an output just do:: import pyb p = pyb.Pin("P0", pyb.Pin.OUT_PP) p.high() # or p.value(1) to make the pin high (3.3V) p.low() # or p.value(0) to make the pin low (0V) It's that easy! However, what if you want to open-drain an output? Just do:: p = pyb.Pin("P0", pyb.Pin.OUT_OD) And now ``pyb.Pin.high()`` will cause the pin to float while ``pyb.Pin.low()`` will pull the pin low. If you need a pull-up resistor on the Pin just add:: p = pyb.Pin("P0", pyb.Pin.OUT_OD, pyb.Pin.PULL_UP) ... to the constructor.
