README
======
This README discusses issues unique to NuttX configurations for the
STM32 Tiny development board.
This board is available from several vendors on the net, and may
be sold under different names. It is based on a STM32 F103C8T6 MCU, and
is (always ?) bundled with a nRF24L01 wireless communication module.

LEDs
====
The STM32Tiny board has only one software controllable LED.
This LED can be used by the board port when CONFIG_ARCH_LEDS option is
enabled.
If enabled the LED is simply turned on when the board boots
succesfully, and is blinking on panic / assertion failed.
PWM
===
The STM32 Tiny has no real on-board PWM devices, but the board can be
configured to output a pulse train using TIM3 CH2 on the GPIO line B.5
(connected to the LED).
Please note that the CONFIG_STM32_TIM3_PARTIAL_REMAP option must be enabled
in this case.
UARTs

Default USART/UART Configuration
--------------------------------
USART1 (RX & TX only) is available through the RS-232 port on the board. A MAX232 chip converts
voltage to RS-232 level. This serial port can be used to flash a firmware using the boot loader
integrated in the MCU.

Timer devices may be used for different purposes. One special purpose is
to generate modulated outputs for such things as motor control. If CONFIG_STM32_TIMn
is defined (as above) then the following may also be defined to indicate that
the timer is intended to be used for pulsed output modulation or ADC conversion.
Note that ADC require two definitions: Not only do you have
to assign the timer (n) for used by the ADC, but then you also have to
configure which ADC (m) it is assigned to.
CONFIG_STM32_TIMn_PWM Reserve timer n for use by PWM, n=1,..,14
CONFIG_STM32_TIMn_ADC Reserve timer n for use by ADC, n=1,..,14
CONFIG_STM32_TIMn_ADCm Reserve timer n to trigger ADCm, n=1,..,14, m=1,..,3
For each timer that is enabled for PWM usage, we need the following additional
configuration settings:
CONFIG_STM32_TIMx_CHANNEL - Specifies the timer output channel {1,..,4}
NOTE: The STM32 timers are each capable of generating different signals on
each of the four channels with different duty cycles. That capability is
not supported by this driver: Only one output channel per timer.
JTAG Enable settings (by default only SW-DP is enabled):
CONFIG_STM32_JTAG_FULL_ENABLE - Enables full SWJ (JTAG-DP + SW-DP)
CONFIG_STM32_JTAG_NOJNTRST_ENABLE - Enables full SWJ (JTAG-DP + SW-DP)
but without JNTRST.
CONFIG_STM32_JTAG_SW_ENABLE - Set JTAG-DP disabled and SW-DP enabled
STM32Tiny specific device driver settings
CONFIG_U[S]ARTn_SERIAL_CONSOLE - selects the USARTn (n=1,2,3)
for the console and ttys0 (default is the USART1).
CONFIG_U[S]ARTn_RXBUFSIZE - Characters are buffered as received.
This specific the size of the receive buffer
CONFIG_U[S]ARTn_TXBUFSIZE - Characters are buffered before
being sent. This specific the size of the transmit buffer
CONFIG_U[S]ARTn_BAUD - The configure BAUD of the UART. Must be
CONFIG_U[S]ARTn_BITS - The number of bits. Must be either 7 or 8.
CONFIG_U[S]ARTn_PARTIY - 0=no parity, 1=odd parity, 2=even parity
CONFIG_U[S]ARTn_2STOP - Two stop bits
STM32Tiny CAN Configuration
CONFIG_CAN - Enables CAN support (one or both of CONFIG_STM32_CAN1 or
CONFIG_STM32_CAN2 must also be defined)
CONFIG_CAN_EXTID - Enables support for the 29-bit extended ID. Default
Standard 11-bit IDs.
CONFIG_CAN_FIFOSIZE - The size of the circular buffer of CAN messages.
Default: 8
CONFIG_CAN_NPENDINGRTR - The size of the list of pending RTR requests.
Default: 4
CONFIG_CAN_LOOPBACK - A CAN driver may or may not support a loopback
mode for testing. The STM32 CAN driver does support loopback mode.
CONFIG_STM32_CAN1_BAUD - CAN1 BAUD rate. Required if CONFIG_STM32_CAN1
is defined.
CONFIG_STM32_CAN2_BAUD - CAN1 BAUD rate. Required if CONFIG_STM32_CAN2
is defined.
CONFIG_STM32_CAN_TSEG1 - The number of CAN time quanta in segment 1.
Default: 6
CONFIG_STM32_CAN_TSEG2 - the number of CAN time quanta in segment 2.
Default: 7
CONFIG_STM32_CAN_REGDEBUG - If CONFIG_DEBUG_FEATURES is set, this will generate an
dump of all CAN registers.
STM32Tiny SPI Configuration
CONFIG_STM32_SPI_INTERRUPTS - Select to enable interrupt driven SPI
support. Non-interrupt-driven, poll-waiting is recommended if the
interrupt rate would be to high in the interrupt driven case.
CONFIG_STM32_SPI_DMA - Use DMA to improve SPI transfer performance.
Cannot be used with CONFIG_STM32_SPI_INTERRUPT.
Configurations
==============
Each STM32Tiny configuration is maintained in a sub-directory and
can be selected as follow:
tools/configure.sh STM32Tiny/<subdir>
Where <subdir> is one of the following:
nsh:
---
Configures the NuttShell (nsh) located at apps/examples/nsh. This
configuration enables a console on UART1. Support for
builtin applications is enabled, but in the base configuration no
builtin applications are selected (see NOTES below).
NOTES:
1. This configuration uses the mconf-based configuration tool. To
change this configuration 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. By default, this configuration uses the CodeSourcery toolchain
for Windows and builds under Cygwin (or probably MSYS). That
can easily be reconfigured, of course.
CONFIG_HOST_WINDOWS=y : Builds under Windows
CONFIG_WINDOWS_CYGWIN=y : Using Cygwin
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYW=y : CodeSourcery for Windows
3. This example supports the PWM test (apps/examples/pwm) but this must
be manually enabled by selecting:
CONFIG_PWM=y : Enable the generic PWM infrastructure
CONFIG_STM32_TIM3=y : Enable TIM3
CONFIG_STM32_TIM3_PWM=y : Use TIM3 to generate PWM output
CONFIG_STM32_TIM3_PARTIAL_REMAP=y : Required to have the port B5 as timer PWM output (channel 2)
CONFIG_STM32_TIM3_CHANNEL=2
See also apps/examples/README.txt
Note that the only supported board configuration uses the board LED as PWM output.
Special PWM-only debug options:
CONFIG_DEBUG_PWM_INFO
7. USB Support (CDC/ACM device)
CONFIG_STM32_OTGFS=y : STM32 OTG FS support
CONFIG_USBDEV=y : USB device support must be enabled
CONFIG_CDCACM=y : The CDC/ACM driver must be built
CONFIG_NSH_BUILTIN_APPS=y : NSH built-in application support must be enabled
CONFIG_NSH_ARCHINIT=y : To perform USB initialization
8. Using the USB console.
The STM32Tiny NSH configuration can be set up to use a USB CDC/ACM
(or PL2303) USB console. The normal way that you would configure the
the USB console would be to change the .config file like this:
CONFIG_STM32_OTGFS=y : STM32 OTG FS support
CONFIG_USART2_SERIAL_CONSOLE=n : Disable the USART2 console
CONFIG_DEV_CONSOLE=n : Inhibit use of /dev/console by other logic
CONFIG_USBDEV=y : USB device support must be enabled
CONFIG_CDCACM=y : The CDC/ACM driver must be built
CONFIG_CDCACM_CONSOLE=y : Enable the CDC/ACM USB console.
NOTE: When you first start the USB console, you have hit ENTER a few
times before NSH starts. The logic does this to prevent sending USB data
before there is anything on the host side listening for USB serial input.
9. Here is an alternative USB console configuration. The following
configuration will also create a NSH USB console but this version
will use /dev/console. Instead, it will use the normal /dev/ttyACM0
USB serial device for the console:
CONFIG_STM32_OTGFS=y : STM32 OTG FS support
CONFIG_USART2_SERIAL_CONSOLE=y : Keep the USART2 console
CONFIG_DEV_CONSOLE=y : /dev/console exists (but NSH won't use it)
CONFIG_USBDEV=y : USB device support must be enabled
CONFIG_CDCACM=y : The CDC/ACM driver must be built
CONFIG_CDCACM_CONSOLE=n : Don't use the CDC/ACM USB console.
CONFIG_NSH_USBCONSOLE=y : Instead use some other USB device for the console
The particular USB device that is used is:
CONFIG_NSH_USBCONDEV="/dev/ttyACM0"
The advantage of this configuration is only that it is easier to
bet working. This alternative does has some side effects:
- When any other device other than /dev/console is used for a user
interface, linefeeds (\n) will not be expanded to carriage return /
linefeeds (\r\n). You will need to set your terminal program to account
for this.
- /dev/console still exists and still refers to the serial port. So
you can still use certain kinds of debug output (see include/debug.h, all
of the debug output from interrupt handlers will be lost.
- But don't enable USB debug output! Since USB is console is used for
USB debug output and you are using a USB console, there will be
infinite loops and deadlocks: Debug output generates USB debug
output which generatates USB debug output, etc. If you want USB
debug output, you should consider enabling USB trace
(CONFIG_USBDEV_TRACE) and perhaps the USB monitor (CONFIG_USBMONITOR).
See the usbnsh configuration below for more information on configuring
USB trace output and the USB monitor.
usbnsh:
-------
This is another NSH example. If differs from other 'nsh' configurations
in that this configurations uses a USB serial device for console I/O.
NOTES:
1. This configuration uses the mconf-based configuration tool. To
change this configuration 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. By default, this configuration uses the CodeSourcery toolchain
for Windows and builds under Cygwin (or probably MSYS). That
can easily be reconfigured, of course.
CONFIG_HOST_WINDOWS=y : Builds under Windows
CONFIG_WINDOWS_CYGWIN=y : Using Cygwin
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYW=y : CodeSourcery for Windows
3. This configuration does have UART2 output enabled and set up as
the system logging device:
CONFIG_SYSLOG_CHAR=y : Use a character device for system logging
CONFIG_SYSLOG_DEVPATH="/dev/ttyS0" : UART2 will be /dev/ttyS0
However, there is nothing to generate SYLOG output in the default
configuration so nothing should appear on UART2 unless you enable
some debug output or enable the USB monitor.
4. Enabling USB monitor SYSLOG output. If tracing is enabled, the USB
device will save encoded trace output in in-memory buffer; if the
USB monitor is enabled, that trace buffer will be periodically
emptied and dumped to the system loggin device (UART2 in this
configuraion):
CONFIG_USBDEV_TRACE=y : Enable USB trace feature
CONFIG_USBDEV_TRACE_NRECORDS=128 : Buffer 128 records in memory
CONFIG_NSH_USBDEV_TRACE=n : No builtin tracing from NSH
CONFIG_NSH_ARCHINIT=y : Automatically start the USB monitor
CONFIG_USBMONITOR=y : Enable the USB monitor daemon
CONFIG_USBMONITOR_STACKSIZE=2048 : USB monitor daemon stack size
CONFIG_USBMONITOR_PRIORITY=50 : USB monitor daemon priority
CONFIG_USBMONITOR_INTERVAL=2 : Dump trace data every 2 seconds
CONFIG_USBMONITOR_TRACEINIT=y : Enable TRACE output
CONFIG_USBMONITOR_TRACECLASS=y
CONFIG_USBMONITOR_TRACETRANSFERS=y
CONFIG_USBMONITOR_TRACECONTROLLER=y
CONFIG_USBMONITOR_TRACEINTERRUPTS=y
5. By default, this project assumes that you are *NOT* using the DFU
bootloader.
Using the Prolifics PL2303 Emulation
------------------------------------
You could also use the non-standard PL2303 serial device instead of
the standard CDC/ACM serial device by changing:
CONFIG_CDCACM=y : Disable the CDC/ACM serial device class
CONFIG_CDCACM_CONSOLE=y : The CDC/ACM serial device is NOT the console
CONFIG_PL2303=y : The Prolifics PL2303 emulation is enabled
CONFIG_PL2303_CONSOLE=y : The PL2303 serial device is the console
