|
||
nodes with a choice of connectivity options including WiFi, Bluetooth LE,
|
||
NFC, and sub-GHZ RF at 868 or 915 MHz, as well as a long list of various
|
||

The board supports ARM mbed online compiler, but can also be programmed
|
||
using IDEs such as IAR, Keil, and GCC-based IDEs. STMicro also provides
|
||
HAL libraries and code samples as part of the STM32Cube Package, as well
|
||
as X-CUBE-AWS expansion software to connect to the Amazon Web Services
|
||
(AWS) IoT platform.
|
||
|
||
LEDs and Buttons
|
||
================
|
||
|
||
The black button B1 located on top side is the reset of the STM32L475VGT6.
|
||
|
||
The blue button B1 located top side is available to be used as a digital
|
||
input or as alternate function Wake-up. When the button is depressed the logic state is "0", otherwise the logic state is "1".
|
||
|
||
Two green LEDs (LD1 and LD2), located on the top side are available for the user. To light a LED a high logic state "1" should be written in the corresponding GPIO.
|
||
|
||
Reference Color Name Comment
|
||
B2 blue Wake-up Alternate function Wake-up
|
||
LD1 green LED1 PA5 (alternate with ARD.D13)
|
||
LD2 green LED2 PB14
|
||
|
||
These LEDs are not used by the board port unless CONFIG_ARCH_LEDS is
|
||
defined. In that case, the usage by the board port is defined in
|
||
include/board.h and src/lpc31_leds.c. The LEDs are used to encode
|
||
OS-related events as follows:
|
||
|
||
SYMBOL Meaning LED state
|
||
LED2 LED1
|
||
------------------- ----------------------- -------- --------
|
||
LED_STARTED NuttX has been started OFF OFF
|
||
LED_HEAPALLOCATE Heap has been allocated OFF OFF
|
||
LED_IRQSENABLED Interrupts enabled OFF OFF
|
||
LED_STACKCREATED Idle stack created ON OFF
|
||
LED_INIRQ In an interrupt N/C N/C
|
||
LED_SIGNAL In a signal handler N/C N/C
|
||
LED_ASSERTION An assertion failed N/C N/C
|
||
LED_PANIC The system has crashed N/C Blinking
|
||
LED_IDLE MCU is is sleep mode Not used
|
||
|
||
Thus if LED2 is statically on, NuttX has successfully booted and is,
|
||
apparently, running normmally. If LED1 is flashing at approximately
|
||
2Hz, then a fatal error has been detected and the system has halted.
|
||
|
||
NOTE: That LED2 is not used after completion of booting and may
|
||
be used by other board-specific logic.

Configurations
|
||
==============
|
||
|
||
Information Common to All Configurations
|
||
----------------------------------------
|
||
Each B-L475E-IOT01A configuration is maintained in a sub-directory and
|
||
can be selected as follow:
|
||
|
||
cd tools
|
||
./configure.sh b-l475e-iot01a/<subdir>
|
||
cd -
|
||
|
||
Before building, make sure that:
|
||
|
||
1. The PATH environment variable include the correct path to the
|
||
directory than holds your toolchain binaries.
|
||
2. Make sure that the configuration is set for your build platform
|
||
and that the toolchain is set for the toolchain type you are using.
|
||
|
||
And then build NuttX by simply typing the following. At the conclusion of
|
||
the make, the nuttx binary will reside in an ELF file called, simply,
|
||
nuttx.
|
||
|
||
make oldconfig
|
||
make
|
||
|
||
The <subdir> that is provided above as an argument to the
|
||
tools/configure.sh must be is one of the following.
|
||
|
||
NOTES:
|
||
|
||
1. These configurations use the mconf-based configuration tool. To
|
||
change any of these configurations using that tool, you should:
|
||
|
||
a. Build and install the kconfig-mconf tool. See nuttx/README.txt
|
||
see additional README.txt files in the NuttX tools repository.
|
||
|
||
b. Execute 'make menuconfig' in nuttx/ in order to start the
|
||
reconfiguration process.
|
||
|
||
2. Unless stated otherwise, all configurations generate console
|
||
output on USART1 (i.e., for ST-Link Virtual COM port).
|
||
|
||
3. All of these configurations are set up to build under Windows using the
|
||
"GNU Tools for ARM Embedded Processors" that is maintained by ARM
|
||
(unless stated otherwise in the description of the configuration).
|
||
|
||
https://launchpad.net/gcc-arm-embedded
|
||
|
||
That toolchain selection can easily be reconfigured using
|
||
'make menuconfig'. Here are the relevant current settings:
|
||
|
||
Build Setup:
|
||
CONFIG_HOST_WINDOWS=y : Window environment
|
||
CONFIG_WINDOWS_CYGWIN=y : Cywin under Windows
|
||
|
||
System Type -> Toolchain:
|
||
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_GNU_EABIW=y : GNU ARM EABI toolchain
