Teensy 3.2 - Purple OSH Park Edition

Sold out.

Try the TEENSY 4.0 Instead!

Teensy 3.2 - Purple OSH Park Edition has been discontinued, but the standard (Green) edition has not.  It can still be found through other distributors 

Teensy 3.2 is a direct, 100% compatible replacement for Teensy 3.1. It is fully compatible with all shields and add-on boards made for Teensy 3.1, including the Audio Board and OctoWS2811 Adaptor.  More Memory For Awesome Projects

The circuit boards are manufactured in the USA, and all assembly and testing is performed in the USA.

5 Volt Tolerance on Digital Inputs

Today most new chips use 3.3V signals, but many legacy products output 5 volt digital signals. These can now be directly connected to Teensy 3.2's digital inputs.

All digital pins are 5 volt tolerant on Teensy 3.2. However, the analog-only pins (A10-A14), AREF, Program and Reset are 3.3V only.

12 Bit Analog Output

Teensy 3.2 has a proper analog output. You can always filter PWM, but true analog output responds rapidly. The output is created by the stable reference voltage, so it's doesn't vary if your power supply voltage changes slightly.

 

// Simple DAC sine wave test on Teensy 3.1/3.2

float phase = 0.0;
float twopi = 3.14159 * 2;
elapsedMicros usec = 0;

void setup() {
  analogWriteResolution(12);
}

void loop() {
  float val = sin(phase) * 2000.0 + 2050.0;
  analogWrite(A14, (int)val);
  phase = phase + 0.02;
  if (phase >= twopi) phase = 0;
  while (usec < 500) ; // wait
  usec = usec - 500;
}

Simply use analogWrite() on the A14 pin for true analog output.

Two Analog to Digital Converters

With analogRead(), you can measure many signals, but only 1 at a time. Teensy 3.2 has a second ADC, so you can concurrently measure 2 analog signals. For stereo audio or power monitoring, sampling both left and right, or voltage and current at the same moment is very beneficial.

PJRC is developing an advanced analog read function for Arduino, to make using these new analog input capabilities very easy.

CAN Bus

Controller Area Network is a communication used in automobiles. A new library to support Teensy 3.2's CAN controller is planned.

Pinouts

Teensy 3.2 is meant to be a drop-in replacement for Teensy 3.0. Only 1 pin has different functionality. The reset pin was replaced by A14/DAC, which you can use for true analog output, or as another analog input.  

Pins 3 and 4 gained CAN bus functions.

Pins 6, 9, 15, and 20-21 can still have SPI chip select capability, but the labels were removed to simplify the pinout card. Currently no libraries use the native chip selects. However, a new SPIFIFO library is in development.

 On the back side, 2 pins gained new PWM functionality and 6 pins have new analog input capability. A second I2C port is also added.

Reset Signal

Teensy 3.0 supported both a Program signal, to reboot into bootloader mode, and a traditional Reset signal, for a conventional reboot that restarts your application.

The Reset signal can be found on a new test point on the bottom side of Teensy 3.2.
