Now available: VL53L1X library for Arduino
- 8 June 2020Hello, DarthVader.
You might look at the VL53L1X Time-of-Flight sensor datasheet and the VL53L1X API user manual for details on how the GPIO1 pin can be used for interrupts.
As for counting people, you can see our response here to a similar question on our forum.

Video: Getting Started with the Tic Stepper Motor Controllers
- 6 December 2018Hello.
You can change the period for the Tic's command timeout feature (or disable it) from the "Input and motor settings" tab of the Tic Control Center. This information can be found in the "Error handling" section of the Tic's user's guide.
As for your question, the settings under the "Input and motor settings" tab and "Advanced settings" tab in the Tic Control Center will be saved on the Tic's EEPROM (after clicking the "Apply settings" button), so each time the Tic is reset or power cycled, those settings will persist.
If you have more questions, I recommend posting about it on our forum.

Video: Introducing the Tic Stepper Motor Controllers
- 1 November 2018Yes, you can use libpololu-tic on the Raspberry Pi, but not on the Arduino, since the C library uses USB commands to interface with the Tic. We have a separate library for the Tic designed to work with Arduino products:

- 31 October 2018Hello, Helge.
We do not have any C examples using the library for the Tic. You would need to read the documentation of the library in the include/tic.h file to understand how to use it.

New product: A-Star 32U4 Micro
- 19 June 2018Hello, Anand.
For the ATmega32U4, Serial is reserved for USB communication, so Serial.Write() should transmit the data out of the A-Star's USB interface. If you are trying to send data via the A-Star's UART pins (pins 0 and 1), you should use Serial1. If you continue to have trouble, our forum is a better place for troubleshooting, so please post a detail description of your issue there.

Controlling a Maestro in C using a Raspberry Pi
- 9 May 2018Hello, Lesley B.
Another customer recently shared a blog post with us that contains a breakdown of the code from Shahmir Javaid's blog post. You can find the blog here.
There are also some customer-contributed examples in the "Related Resources" section of the Maestro user's guide with code for using a Raspberry Pi to control a Maestro that you might find helpful.

- 22 January 2018Hello.

Addressable through-hole RGB LEDs are back
- 30 October 2017We do not have those dimensions from the manufacturer, but I expect them to be similar to the many other LEDs out there with this kind of package. I just measured a few of the 5 mm ones, and the leads were approximately 0.5×0.5 mm thick and spaced on a 1.3 mm pitch. The leads of the 8 mm version look to be about the same.
