Linduino PSM also provides a safe environment for experimentation and confirmation of a design prior to implementation. Linduino PSM provides a mechanism to anyone that needs to learn PMBus, or learn how to write code for PSM devices. The PMBus library stack makes writing reliable PMBus code easy by providing: Linduino PSM is meant to be used for PSM (Power System Management) devices and is a PMBus library plus sketches distributed with the Linduino software. We find it an ideal way to demonstrate and distribute libraries for integrated circuits that have digital interfaces such as Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C) and Serial Peripheral Interface(SPI). This platform is popular because it is easy to use, both the hardware and software are open source, and it can be programmed in C. The software is a simple programming environment based on the AVRGCC compiler.
Linduino is a development platform that consists of an Arduino Uno microcontroller from Atmel and a boot-loader allowing for quick in-circuit firmware updates.
