Wow, thank you so much for your thorough answers! @Nominal Animal: Your answer goes a little beyond the scope of my little problem, but I'll definitively keep it in mind for later polishing of the project-- I want to simply be able to disable the stepper drivers at any time. When I do it while...

Hello, I have a soft-off/emergency switch that, when triggered, should pause a blocking routine (multistepper) immediately. That said, I might miss some basic understanding about interrupts, but here's what I did: In setup(): attachInterrupt(SafeOffPin, offRising, RISING)...

@neurofun A 2k2 resistor definitifely improved the readings. No 100nF capacitors at hand but I ordered some and will add one aswell. Thanks! @MichaelMeissner Thanks for your suggestions, but the bouncing happens without any contact whatsoever. Since this is a limit switch, bouncing during...

Thank you so much, that (almost) did the trick! However, with an open switch, every 20-100 digitalReads will return a 0. Although that could be fixed in software, do you have any recommendations for further reading on that behaviour (or a keyword to search for)? I'd really like to understand how...

Hello, a bit of a simple question, but I can't seem to find a solution-- I have a limit switch (NO) connected to pin 14 of my teensy LC: #define S_limitSwitch 14 // A0. When the switch closes, it connects the pin to ground. The pull up resistor is activated: pinMode(S_limitSwitch...

Thanks, just ordered one! And thank you for the welcome! For quite some time I've been looking for a project where the Nanos that are usually my go-to choice wouldn't be sufficient anymore. Coming from a rather designy-ish oriented Arduino world, it took some time and grubbing through the...

Okay, thanks for the heads up. What would you recommend instead? I wasn‘t planning on going higher than 24V on the input. 32V just seemed save..

Thank you for your advice! There seems to be no need for any 5V lines anymore, so I'll stick to 3.3V entirely. Do you have any recommendations for a reliable regulator? I was looking at the TSR 1-2433 with an output accuracy of ±2 %. From your experience, is that ok?

Thanks for you answer! Ok, I think I was not clear about that. I was talking about the stepper driver logic part being powered by the LC. The motor powering part on the drivers are directly fed by the batteries @24V. The pinout says "3.7 to 5.5V" on VIN, so I guessed 5V would be "save". But if...

Hello, coming from Arduino, this is my first project with a Teensy. I understand that the Teensy LC likes 3.3V on all pins, so all components connected must work at that voltage. The primary power source will be batteries (@24V, needed for stepper motors), a step down converter brings 5V to VIN...
