May 28, 2019 at 6:59 comment added chrisl As I remember the servo library uses Timer1 and Timer 0 is normally used for the Arduino timing functions (delay, millis and siblings). To also use that a slave Arduino to read the rpm might be good. Or a bigger Arduino with more timers
May 27, 2019 at 22:21 comment added Elias Taalab If I use two interrupts will this conflict with arduino code (like if I have three loadcells that I need to read or write a value to a servo ) ?? .. my original post was about using an attiny85 (or atmega328 in arduino pro mini ) to send rpm values to a master arduino that will gather all values and make some dicitions ..
May 27, 2019 at 22:10 comment added chrisl That shouldn't be a problem with the Pro mini, since it has hardware serial and hardware I2C. The ATtiny not, so the Pro mini really would be the better board.
May 27, 2019 at 22:06 comment added Elias Taalab Ok I think using an Arduino pro mini will be cheap enough if I want to use the second method (the two timers method ) and it will be accurate ... What do you think if I want to add i2c or serial to the code ?
