I'm trying to read both an imu and a number of pwm inputs, the imu uses i2c and interrupts and im trying to read 5 pwm inputs with the pulseIn command in a for loop . But the for loop appears to be really slow and makes the imu overflow. If i use th pulseIn with just a single pwm its fine. Can i make the for loop faster and not interfere with my imu readings or do i have to use a different method.
Thanks in advance
