The STM32 has no problem with MHz level bit flipping. Reading or creating is MHz level is not hard. And the Pi3 has to be about the most well understood and documented machines on Earth. they are ultra-common. The pi still is beat by an Intel desktop PC but the Pi has that GPIO header and you can get at signals. The OS causes unpredictable latency so use the STM32 if that matters. As for compute power if the Pi is not enough you offload from the Pi to the bigger box. But for machine tools the Pi is overkill unless you are doing vision. -- Chris Albertson Redondo Beach, California _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
