What Is Ezblock Pi?
Ezblock Pi, with ARM 32-bit Cortex ™ -M3 CPU, is an extension board that plugs directly into a Raspberry Pi. It also extends the pins of Raspberry Pi, adding functions of PWM and ADC. The specifics are as below:
- ARM 32-bit Cortex™-M3 CPU.
- On-board Bluetooth Low-energy(BLE).
- 8 PWM pins(P0-P7)
- 8 ADC pins(A0-A7)
- 10 digital pins(D0-D9)
- SPI and I2C pins
- 1 User LED, 1 reset button and 1 user button.
- On-board 3.3V LDO voltage regulator, capable of supplying electric current up to 1A, and input voltage ranges from 3.6V to 12v.
RST Button Function
Ezblock runs 2 services in the background, Ezblock service and the Ezblock reset service. The Ezblock service automatically runs your program and reads the Bluetooth data to finish the wireless code transformation. Reset service is controlled by the reset button; short press to soft-reset your program and long press to hard-reset the Ezblock service.
