shiftOut() — Maple v0.0.12 Documentation

shiftOut()¶

Shift out a byte of data, one bit at a time.

Library Documentation¶

void shiftOut(uint8 dataPin, uint8 clockPin, uint8 bitOrder, uint8 value)

Shift out a byte of data, one bit at a time.

This function starts at either the most significant or least significant bit in a byte value, and shifts out each byte in order onto a data pin. After each bit is written to the data pin, a separate clock pin is pulsed to indicate that the new bit is available.

Parameters:
Discussion¶

This is a software implementation. There is also a hardware SPI library available which will be faster and consume less CPU cycles than this function.

Note that the dataPin and clockPin must already be configured to OUTPUT mode by a call to pinMode().

Also note that since shiftOut() outputs 1 byte (8 bits) at a time, it requires multiple steps to output values larger than 255.

Examples¶

To use these examples, replace dataPin and clockPin with the numbers of the pins you want to use:

/* MSBFIRST example */

uint16 data = 500;
// shift out high byte
shiftOut(dataPin, clockPin, MSBFIRST, (data >> 8));
// shift out low byte
shiftOut(dataPin, clockPin, MSBFIRST, data);

/* LSBFIRST serial */

data = 500;
// shift out low byte
shiftOut(dataPin, clockPin, LSBFIRST, data);
// shift out high byte
shiftOut(dataPin, clockPin, LSBFIRST, (data >> 8));
Arduino Tutorial Example¶

This Arduino example runs unmodified on the Maple. For accompanying circuit, see the tutorial on controlling a 74HC595 shift register.
