||
Machine | ||
******* | ||
|
||
.. py:module:: machine | ||
The machine module contains specific functions related to the micro:bit | ||
hardware. Most functions in this module allow to achieve direct and | ||
unrestricted access to and control of hardware blocks on a system (like CPU, | ||
timers, buses, etc.). Used incorrectly, this can lead to malfunction, lockups, | ||
crashes of your board, and in extreme cases, hardware damage. | ||
|
||
|
||
Functions | ||
========= | ||
|
||
.. method:: machine.unique_id() | ||
|
||
Returns a byte string with a unique identifier of a board. It will vary | ||
from one board instance to another. | ||
|
||
|
||
.. method:: machine.reset() | ||
|
||
Resets the device in a manner similar to pushing the external RESET button. | ||
|
||
|
||
.. method:: machine.freq() | ||
|
||
Returns CPU frequency in hertz. | ||
|
||
|
||
.. method:: machine.disable_irq() | ||
|
||
Disable interrupt requests. Returns the previous IRQ state which should be | ||
considered an opaque value. This return value should be passed to the | ||
:func:`machine.enable_irq()` function to restore interrupts to their | ||
original state, before :func:`machine.disable_irq()` was called. | ||
|
||
|
||
.. method:: machine.enable_irq() | ||
|
||
Re-enable interrupt requests. The *state* parameter should be the value | ||
that was returned from the most recent call to the | ||
:func:`machine.disable_irq()` function. | ||
|
||
|
||
.. method:: machine.time_pulse_us(pin, pulse_level, timeout_us=1000000) | ||
|
||
Time a pulse on the given *pin*, and return the duration of the pulse in | ||
microseconds. The *pulse_level* argument should be 0 to time a low pulse or | ||
1 to time a high pulse. | ||
|
||
If the current input value of the pin is different to *pulse_level*, the | ||
function first (*) waits until the pin input becomes equal to | ||
*pulse_level*, then (**) times the duration that the pin is equal to | ||
*pulse_level*. If the pin is already equal to *pulse_level* then timing | ||
starts straight away. | ||
|
||
The function will return -2 if there was timeout waiting for condition | ||
marked (*) above, and -1 if there was timeout during the main measurement, | ||
marked (**) above. The timeout is the same for both cases and given by | ||
*timeout_us* (which is in microseconds). | ||
|
||
|
||
Reading Memory | ||
============== | ||
|
||
The ``machine`` module allows you to read from the device's memory, getting 1 | ||
byte (8 bits; ``mem8``), 2 byte (16 bits; ``mem16``), or 4 byte (32 bits; | ||
``mem32``) words from physical addresses. For example: ``mem8[0x00]`` reads 1 | ||
byte on physical address ``0x00``. This has a number of uses, for example if | ||
you'd like to read data from the nRF51 registers. |

MicroPython | ||
*********** | ||
|
||
.. py:module:: micropython | ||
Access and control MicroPython internals. | ||
|
||
Functions | ||
========= | ||
|
||
.. py:function:: micropython.const(expr) | ||
Used to declare that the expression is a constant so that the compiler can | ||
optimise it. The use of this function should be as follows: | ||
|
||
.. code-block:: python | ||
from micropython import const | ||
CONST_X = const(123) | ||
CONST_Y = const(2 * CONST_X + 1) | ||
Constants declared this way are still accessible as global variables from | ||
outside the module they are declared in. On the other hand, if a constant | ||
begins with an underscore then it is hidden, it is not available as a | ||
global variable, and does not take up any memory during execution. | ||
|
||
|
||
.. py:function:: micropython.opt_level([level]) | ||
If level is given then this function sets the optimisation level for | ||
subsequent compilation of scripts, and returns None. Otherwise it returns | ||
the current optimisation level. | ||
|
||
The optimisation level controls the following compilation features: | ||
|
||
* Assertions: at level 0 assertion statements are enabled and compiled | ||
into the bytecode; at levels 1 and higher assertions are not compiled. | ||
|
||
* Built-in ``__debug__`` variable: at level 0 this variable expands to | ||
True; at levels 1 and higher it expands to False. | ||
|
||
* Source-code line numbers: at levels 0, 1 and 2 source-code line number | ||
are stored along with the bytecode so that exceptions can report the | ||
line number they occurred at; at levels 3 and higher line numbers are | ||
not stored. | ||
|
||
The default optimisation level is usually level 0. | ||
|
||
|
||
.. py:function:: micropython.mem_info([verbose]) | ||
Print information about currently used memory. If the verbose argument is | ||
given then extra information is printed. | ||
|
||
|
||
.. py:function:: micropython.qstr_info([verbose]) | ||
Print information about currently interned strings. If the verbose argument | ||
is given then extra information is printed. | ||
|
||
This includes the number of interned strings and the amount of RAM they | ||
use. In verbose mode it prints out the names of all RAM-interned strings. | ||
|
||
|
||
.. py:function:: micropython.stack_use() | ||
Return an integer representing the current amount of stack that is being | ||
used. The absolute value of this is not particularly useful, rather it | ||
should be used to compute differences in stack usage at different points. | ||
|
||
|
||
.. py:function:: micropython.heap_lock() | ||
.. py:function:: micropython.heap_unlock() | ||
Lock or unlock the heap. When locked no memory allocation can occur and a | ||
``MemoryError`` will be raised if any heap allocation is attempted. | ||
|
||
|
||
.. py:function:: micropython.kbd_intr(chr) | ||
Set the character that will raise a KeyboardInterrupt exception. By default | ||
this is set to 3 during script execution, corresponding to Ctrl-C. Passing | ||
-1 to this function will disable capture of Ctrl-C, and passing 3 will | ||
restore it. | ||
|
||
This function can be used to prevent the capturing of Ctrl-C on the | ||
incoming stream of characters that is usually used for the REPL, in case | ||
that stream is used for other purposes |
