Beginning STM32: Developing with FreeRTOS, libopencm3, and GCC (Maker Innovations Series) - Tapa blanda

Acerca del autor

Warren Gay ​has been an electronics enthusiast since childhood and often dragged discarded TV sets home after school. In high school he learned to program the IBM-1130 and then pursued a career in software development at Ryerson Polytechnical, in Toronto. Since then he has worked professionally for over 30 years, mainly in C/C++, under Unix and Linux. Meanwhile, the love of electronics has never faded since the early creation of his home-brewed Intel 8008 system in the 70's to the present day projects employing the Raspberry Pi. Warren also holds an advanced amateur radio license and was able to work the Mir space station (U2MIR) using packet radio in August 1991. He's authored other books including Sams Teach Yourself Linux in 24 Hours, Linux Socket Programming by Example, and Advanced Unix Programming.

De la contraportada

See how using FreeRTOS and libopencm3 instead of the Arduino software environment will help you develop multi-tasking applications that go beyond Arduino norms. This updated version includes expanded coverage of software setup for Windows 10 and 11, additional TM32 hardware capabilities, including clear explanations of "totem pole outputs" versus "open drain outputs," and a new section on project showcasing an interrupt-driven approach for processing USART data.

Each chapter contains clear explanations of the STM32 hardware capabilities to help get you started with the device, including GPIO and several other ST Microelectronics peripherals like USB and CAN bus controller. You’ll learn how to download and set up the libopencm3 + FreeRTOS development environment, using GCC. With everything set up, you’ll leverage FreeRTOS to create tasks, queues, and mutexes. You’ll also learn to work with the I2C bus to add GPIO using the PCF8574 chip. And how to create PWM output for RC control using hardware timers.
