CircuitPython 3.0.2
This is the a bug fix and minor feature release for the 3.x stable series. There are a few important fixes and some additions to busio.UART
. Please check out the 3.0.0 release notes for full details on what's new in 3.0.0.
Changes since 3.0.1
- Adjust neopixel write timings on the M4: On-board NeoPixel stopped working on M4 boards in 3.0.1. Thanks to @jerryneedell for the fix and testing, and @ash0x1b for the issue.
- Handle USB output buffer >255 characters. Thanks @daguitarguy for the issue, initially noticed in the REPL, and thanks @dhalbert for the fix.
- Allocate
PWMOut
timer channels correctly. Previously some TCC timer channels were being incorrectly reused in multiplePWMOut
objects. Thanks @deshipu for the issue and @dhalbert for the fix. - When UART timeout of zero is given, make
UART.read()
return available data. Thanks to @PaulKierstead for the fix. - Re-initialize default
board
busses on soft reset (board.SPI
,board.I2C
,board.UART
). Thanks @dhalbert. - Add
UART.in_waiting
andUART.reset_input_buffer()
, which mirror functionality in PySerial. Thanks @dhalbert, and thanks to @ladyada for the suggestions.
