Overview

When an I/O controller (Arduino, Microbit, etc.) is programmed with Synthiam firmware compatible with ARC, we refer to it as an EZB. The firmware then allows the EZB I/O controller to use additional capabilities available in ARC. An EZB connects sensors, motors, and peripherals to the computer running ARC.


DIY & Education

Create Custom Firmware

Anyone can use the EZB communication protocol to support a microcontroller or PLC. You can modify existing firmware with new capabilities, or create your own.
