Methods

	Name	Description
	Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Finalize	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetAnalogChannelsCount	Gets the number of analog channels assigned to this device.
	GetAnalogPinForChannel	Gets the pin assigned to the specified channel.
	GetAvailablePrecisionInBitsForChannel	Gets the available precision assigned to the specified channel.
	GetBaudRateBoundary	Gets the maximum and minimum baud rates for a specified COM port.
	GetButtonPins	Gets the pin assigned to a specified button device.
	GetHashCode	Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetI2CPins	Gets the GPIO pin assignments for the I2C device.
	GetLCDMetrics	Gets the size, color-depth, and orientation of the LCD display device.
	GetPinsCount	Gets the pin count for the device associated with this HardwareProvider.
	GetPinsMap	Gets a pin map for the device associated with this HardwareProvider.
	GetPinsUsage	Gets the value from the Cpu..::..PinUsage enumeration that describes the usage of a specified pin.
	GetPWMChannelsCount	Gets the number of PWM channels assigned to the device.
	GetPwmPinForChannel	Gets the pin assigned to the specified channel.
	GetSerialPins	Gets the GPIO pin assignments for the specified communications port (COM port).
	GetSerialPortsCount	Gets the count of serial ports associated with this HardwareProvider.
	GetSpiPins	Gets the GPIO pin assignments for the SPI device.
	GetSpiPortsCount	Gets the number of SPI ports associated with this HardwareProvider.
	GetSupportBaudRates	Gets all the baud rates supported by a specified COM port.
	GetSupportedInterruptModes	Gets the supported interrupt modes for a specified pin.
	GetSupportedResistorModes	Gets the supported resistor modes for a specified pin.
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	IsSupportedBaudRate	Determines whether a specified baud rate is supported by a specified COM port.
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Register	Instantiates a static HardwareProvider that stores information about how the serial communications GPIO pins are used.
	SupportsNonStandardBaudRate	Determines whether a specified COM port supports a non-standard baud rate.
	ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
