Which timer can I use ?

If you want to use a timer in your program it could be good to know which one is already used to avoid any conflict.

Generally speaking, if your Pinguino chip has more than 4 timers try to use Timer 4 and above and you will get no issue.

If your chip only have 4 timers then check this list to know which library use which timer :

=8-bit=


 * millis library uses Timer0
 * servos library uses Timer1
 * pwm    library uses Timer2
 * stepper library uses Timer3
 * dcf77  library uses Timer3

=32-bit=


 * millis library uses Timer1
 * servos library uses Timer2
 * pwm    library uses Timer3
 * stepper library uses Timer4
 * dcf77  library uses Timer1 (likely to change to Timer5 in a near future)
