Interested in using this with other cortex chips. Stumbling blocks? #1

Admittedly, I haven't dug into your repo yet but I have been looking to use a library (like this one) to connect my SDI-12 device (a YSI sensor) with either my Hologram (nee Konekt) Dash device and/or my Particle Electron with your repo. The Konekt Dash uses a Freescale MK22xxxx Cortex M4 chip while the Particle Electron uses an M3 chip. Without knowing the details yet of how your library works, it is the only one I see that doesn't rely on the Arduino implementation of software-serial on AVR chips. Any thoughts? Have you tested on other hardware?

Interesting, I made this to use with the Teensy (mk20dx256, mkl26z64) chips but I don't see why it wouldn't work on those chips you mentioned. The biggest thing probably would be to make sure those chips have the "one wire" serial protocol which I think all the Kinetis chips have. After that you would have to convert the Teensyduino code parts to whatever the environment you use which could take some time.

Let me know if I can help you out, I wouldn't mind porting this to another platform.

I made a comment in a thread on the community site for the board with the kinetis chip. Let's see what they say. https://community.hologram.io/t/porting-interrupt-and-parity-libraries-from-avr/306
