OLED
^^^^
The Evaluation Kit includes an OLED graphics display. Features:
- RiT P14201 series display
- 128 columns by 96 rows
- 4-bit, 16-level gray scale.
- High-contrast (typ. 500:1)
- Excellent brightness (120 cd/m2)
- Fast 10 us response.
The OLED display has a built-in controller IC with synchronous serial and
parallel interfaces (SSD1329). Synchronous serial (SSI) is used on the EVB.
The SSI port is shared with the microSD card slot.
- PC7: OLED display data/control select (D/Cn)
- PA3: OLED display chip select (CSn)
NOTE: Newer versions of the LM3S8962 Evaluation Kit has an OSAM 128x64x4 OLED
display. Some tweaks to drivers/lcd/p14201.c would be required to support that
LCD.
Development Environment
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Either Linux or Cygwin on Windows can be used for the development environment.
The source has been built only using the GNU toolchain (see below). Other
toolchains will likely cause problems. Testing was performed using the Cygwin
environment.
GNU Toolchain Options
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The NuttX make system has been modified to support the multiple toolchain
options including:
1. The CodeSourcery GNU toolchain,
2. The devkitARM GNU toolchain,
3. The NuttX buildroot Toolchain (see below).
All testing has been conducted using the NuttX buildroot toolchain. However,
the make system is setup to default to use the devkitARM toolchain. To use
the CodeSourcery or devkitARM, you simply need to add one of the following
configuration options to your .config (or defconfig) file:
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYW=y : CodeSourcery under Windows
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYL=y : CodeSourcery under Linux
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_DEVKITARM=y : devkitARM under Windows
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT=y : NuttX buildroot under Linux or Cygwin (default)
If you are not using CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT, then you may also have to modify
the PATH in the setenv.h file if your make cannot find the tools.
NOTE: the CodeSourcery (for Windows) and devkitARM are Windows native toolchains.
The CodeSourcey (for Linux) and NuttX buildroot toolchains are Cygwin and/or Linux
native toolchains. There are several limitations to using a Windows based
toolchain in a Cygwin environment. The three biggest are:
1. The Windows toolchain cannot follow Cygwin paths. Path conversions are
performed automatically in the Cygwin makefiles using the 'cygpath' utility
but you might easily find some new path problems. If so, check out 'cygpath -w'
2. Windows toolchains cannot follow Cygwin symbolic links. Many symbolic links
are used in Nuttx (e.g., include/arch). The make system works around these
problems for the Windows tools by copying directories instead of linking them.
But this can also cause some confusion for you: For example, you may edit
a file in a "linked" directory and find that your changes had no effect.
That is because you are building the copy of the file in the "fake" symbolic
directory. If you use a Windows toolchain, you should get in the habit of
making like this:
make clean_context all
An alias in your .bashrc file might make that less painful.
3. Dependencies are not made when using Windows versions of the GCC. This is
because the dependencies are generated using Windows pathes which do not
work with the Cygwin make.
MKDEP = $(TOPDIR)/tools/mknulldeps.sh
NOTE 1: The CodeSourcery toolchain (2009q1) does not work with default optimization
level of -Os (See Make.defs). It will work with -O0, -O1, or -O2, but not with
-Os.
NOTE 2: The devkitARM toolchain includes a version of MSYS make. Make sure that
the paths to Cygwin's /bin and /usr/bin directories appear BEFORE the devkitARM
path or will get the wrong version of make.
IDEs
^^^^
NuttX is built using command-line make. It can be used with an IDE, but some
effort will be required to create the project. Here are a few tip before you
start that effort:
1) Select the toolchain that you will be using in your .config file
2) Start the NuttX build at least one time from the Cygwin command line
before trying to create your project. This is necessary to create
certain auto-generated files and directories that will be needed.
3) Set up include pathes: You will need include/, arch/arm/src/lm,
arch/arm/src/common, arch/arm/src/armv7-m, and sched/.
4) All assembly files need to have the definition option -D __ASSEMBLY__
on the command line.
Startup files will probably cause you some headaches. The NuttX startup file
is arch/arm/src/tiva/tiva_vectors.S.
NuttX EABI "buildroot" Toolchain
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
A GNU GCC-based toolchain is assumed. The files */setenv.sh should
be modified to point to the correct path to the Cortex-M3 GCC toolchain (if
different from the default in your PATH variable).
If you have no Cortex-M3 toolchain, one can be downloaded from the NuttX
Bitbucket download site (https://bitbucket.org/patacongo/nuttx/downloads/buildroot/).
This GNU toolchain builds and executes in the Linux or Cygwin environment.
1. You must have already configured Nuttx in <some-dir>/nuttx.
cd tools
./configure.sh lm3s8962-ek/<sub-dir>
2. Download the latest buildroot package into <some-dir>
3. unpack the buildroot tarball. The resulting directory may
have versioning information on it like buildroot-x.y.z. If so,
rename <some-dir>/buildroot-x.y.z to <some-dir>/buildroot.
4. cd <some-dir>/buildroot
5. cp configs/cortexm3-eabi-defconfig-4.6.3 .config
6. make oldconfig
7. make
8. Edit setenv.h, if necessary, so that the PATH variable includes
the path to the newly built binaries.
See the file configs/README.txt in the buildroot source tree. That has more
details PLUS some special instructions that you will need to follow if you
are building a Cortex-M3 toolchain for Cygwin under Windows.
NOTE: Unfortunately, the 4.6.3 EABI toolchain is not compatible with the
the NXFLAT tools. See the top-level TODO file (under "Binary loaders") for
more information about this problem. If you plan to use NXFLAT, please do not
use the GCC 4.6.3 EABI toochain; instead use the GCC 4.3.3 OABI toolchain.
See instructions below.
NuttX OABI "buildroot" Toolchain
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The older, OABI buildroot toolchain is also available. To use the OABI
toolchain:
1. When building the buildroot toolchain, either (1) modify the cortexm3-eabi-defconfig-4.6.3
configuration to use EABI (using 'make menuconfig'), or (2) use an exising OABI
configuration such as cortexm3-defconfig-4.3.3
2. Modify the Make.defs file to use the OABI conventions:
+CROSSDEV = arm-nuttx-elf-
+ARCHCPUFLAGS = -mtune=cortex-m3 -march=armv7-m -mfloat-abi=soft
+NXFLATLDFLAGS2 = $(NXFLATLDFLAGS1) -T$(TOPDIR)/binfmt/libnxflat/gnu-nxflat-gotoff.ld -no-check-sections
-CROSSDEV = arm-nuttx-eabi-
-ARCHCPUFLAGS = -mcpu=cortex-m3 -mthumb -mfloat-abi=soft
-NXFLATLDFLAGS2 = $(NXFLATLDFLAGS1) -T$(TOPDIR)/binfmt/libnxflat/gnu-nxflat-pcrel.ld -no-check-sections
NXFLAT Toolchain
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If you are *not* using the NuttX buildroot toolchain and you want to use
the NXFLAT tools, then you will still have to build a portion of the buildroot
tools -- just the NXFLAT tools. The buildroot with the NXFLAT tools can
be downloaded from the NuttX Bitbucket download site
(https://bitbucket.org/patacongo/nuttx/downloads/).
This GNU toolchain builds and executes in the Linux or Cygwin environment.
1. You must have already configured Nuttx in <some-dir>/nuttx.
cd tools
./configure.sh lpcxpresso-lpc1768/<sub-dir>
2. Download the latest buildroot package into <some-dir>
3. unpack the buildroot tarball. The resulting directory may
have versioning information on it like buildroot-x.y.z. If so,
rename <some-dir>/buildroot-x.y.z to <some-dir>/buildroot.
4. cd <some-dir>/buildroot
5. cp configs/cortexm3-defconfig-nxflat .config
6. make oldconfig
7. make
8. Edit setenv.h, if necessary, so that the PATH variable includes
the path to the newly builtNXFLAT binaries.
USB Device Controller Functions
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Device Overview
An FT2232 device from Future Technology Devices International Ltd manages
USB-to-serial conversion. The FT2232 is factory configured by Luminary
Micro to implement a JTAG/SWD port (synchronous serial) on channel A and
a Virtual COM Port (VCP) on channel B. This feature allows two simultaneous
communications links between the host computer and the target device using
a single USB cable. Separate Windows drivers for each function are provided
on the Documentation and Software CD.
Debugging with JTAG/SWD
The FT2232 USB device performs JTAG/SWD serial operations under the control
of the debugger or the Luminary Flash Programmer. It also operate as an
In-Circuit Debugger Interface (ICDI), allowing debugging of any external
target board. Debugging modes:

the EVB.
Virtual COM Port
The Virtual COM Port (VCP) allows Windows applications (such as HyperTerminal)
to communicate with UART0 on the LM3S8962 over USB. Once the FT2232 VCP
driver is installed, Windows assigns a COM port number to the VCP channel.
Stellaris LM3S8962 Evaluation Kit Configuration Options
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
CONFIG_ARCH - Identifies the arch/ subdirectory. This should
be set to:
CONFIG_ARCH=arm
CONFIG_ARCH_family - For use in C code:
CONFIG_ARCH_ARM=y
CONFIG_ARCH_architecture - For use in C code:
CONFIG_ARCH_CORTEXM3=y
CONFIG_ARCH_CHIP - Identifies the arch/*/chip subdirectory
CONFIG_ARCH_CHIP=lm
CONFIG_ARCH_CHIP_name - For use in C code to identify the exact
chip:
CONFIG_ARCH_CHIP_LM3S8962
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD - Identifies the configs subdirectory and
hence, the board that supports the particular chip or SoC.
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD=lm3s8962-ek (for the Stellaris LM3S8962 Evaluation Kit)
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD_name - For use in C code
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD_LM3S8962EK
CONFIG_ARCH_LOOPSPERMSEC - Must be calibrated for correct operation
of delay loops
CONFIG_ENDIAN_BIG - define if big endian (default is little
endian)
CONFIG_RAM_SIZE - Describes the installed DRAM (SRAM in this case):
CONFIG_RAM_SIZE=0x00010000 (64Kb)
CONFIG_RAM_START - The start address of installed DRAM
CONFIG_RAM_START=0x20000000
CONFIG_ARCH_LEDS - Use LEDs to show state. Unique to boards that
have LEDs
CONFIG_ARCH_INTERRUPTSTACK - This architecture supports an interrupt
stack. If defined, this symbol is the size of the interrupt
stack in bytes. If not defined, the user task stacks will be
used during interrupt handling.
CONFIG_ARCH_STACKDUMP - Do stack dumps after assertions
CONFIG_ARCH_LEDS - Use LEDs to show state. Unique to board architecture.
CONFIG_ARCH_CALIBRATION - Enables some build in instrumentation that
cause a 100 second delay during boot-up. This 100 second delay
serves no purpose other than it allows you to calibratre
CONFIG_ARCH_LOOPSPERMSEC. You simply use a stop watch to measure
the 100 second delay then adjust CONFIG_ARCH_LOOPSPERMSEC until
the delay actually is 100 seconds.
There are configurations for disabling support for interrupts GPIO ports.
GPIOJ must be disabled because it does not exist on the LM3S8962.
Additional interrupt support can be disabled if desired to reduce memory
footprint.
CONFIG_TIVA_GPIOA_IRQS=y
CONFIG_TIVA_GPIOB_IRQS=y
CONFIG_TIVA_GPIOC_IRQS=y
CONFIG_TIVA_GPIOD_IRQS=y
CONFIG_TIVA_GPIOE_IRQS=y
CONFIG_TIVA_GPIOF_IRQS=y
CONFIG_TIVA_GPIOG_IRQS=y
CONFIG_TIVA_GPIOH_IRQS=y
CONFIG_TIVA_GPIOJ_IRQS=n << Always
LM3S8962 specific device driver settings
CONFIG_UARTn_SERIAL_CONSOLE - selects the UARTn for the
console and ttys0 (default is the UART0).
CONFIG_UARTn_RXBUFSIZE - Characters are buffered as received.
This specific the size of the receive buffer
CONFIG_UARTn_TXBUFSIZE - Characters are buffered before
being sent. This specific the size of the transmit buffer
CONFIG_UARTn_BAUD - The configure BAUD of the UART. Must be
CONFIG_UARTn_BITS - The number of bits. Must be either 7 or 8.
CONFIG_UARTn_PARTIY - 0=no parity, 1=odd parity, 2=even parity
CONFIG_UARTn_2STOP - Two stop bits
CONFIG_TIVA_SSI0 - Select to enable support for SSI0
CONFIG_TIVA_SSI1 - Select to enable support for SSI1
CONFIG_SSI_POLLWAIT - Select to disable interrupt driven SSI support.
Poll-waiting is recommended if the interrupt rate would be to
high in the interrupt driven case.
CONFIG_SSI_TXLIMIT - Write this many words to the Tx FIFO before
emptying the Rx FIFO. If the SPI frequency is high and this
value is large, then larger values of this setting may cause
Rx FIFO overrun errors. Default: half of the Tx FIFO size (4).
CONFIG_TIVA_ETHERNET - This must be set (along with CONFIG_NET)
to build the Stellaris Ethernet driver
CONFIG_TIVA_ETHLEDS - Enable to use Ethernet LEDs on the board.
CONFIG_TIVA_BOARDMAC - If the board-specific logic can provide
a MAC address (via tiva_ethernetmac()), then this should be selected.
CONFIG_TIVA_ETHHDUPLEX - Set to force half duplex operation
CONFIG_TIVA_ETHNOAUTOCRC - Set to suppress auto-CRC generation
CONFIG_TIVA_ETHNOPAD - Set to suppress Tx padding

Configurations
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Each Stellaris LM3S8962 Evaluation Kit configuration is maintained in a
sub-directory and can be selected as follow:
cd tools
./configure.sh lm3s8962-ek/<subdir>
cd -
. ./setenv.sh
Where <subdir> is one of the following:
nsh:
Configures the NuttShell (nsh) located at examples/nsh.
NOTES:
1. This configuration uses the mconf-based configuration tool. To
change this 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. This configuration uses Cygwin under Windows with the NuttX buildroot
tool chain. This is eaily change by modifying the following:
CONFIG_HOST_WINDOWS=y
CONFIG_WINDOWS_CYGWIN=y
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT=y
3. The configuration enables both the serial and telnetd NSH interfaces.
4. As it is configured now, you MUST have a network connected. Otherwise,
the NSH prompt will not come up because the Ethernet driver is waiting
for the network to come up. That is probably a bug in the Ethernet
driver behavior!
