ChibiOS Free Embedded RTOS

I just got in my hands the Nucleo-F401RE.

I was confused on how you load the code with mbed... until I read that you just drag drop the ".bin" file to the drive that is created upon you connect the board... Cool!

I suppose you could use another compiler and drag and drop the bin file the same ...

I just seen this new Tiva C Series TM4C1294 ... Lots of features for just $19 ...!

Thank you for your working example!

Can I use 3.3v character LCD like this one for this example?

I got some of them (3.3v) by ...

That sounds very interesting, especially that they can work on 5v and the functionality safety. I'll have a look on those too as safety must be assured for motion controllers that operate heavy machinery (1.5HP AC motors!!!)

From what I see from the schematic and the LCD model, the LCD has ILI9341 driver IC or equivalent... Is that correct?

I see 22 available today!!! http://www.digikey.com/product-search/en?vendor=0&keywords=497-13898-ND

Mine is shipped today!

So we can use the PD5 pin for an LCD screen for example without having to physically alter the STM32F4-Discovery board then?

You can, at least it works if you use it as an output: I use PD5 as WR line in 8080 16-bit display (FSMC_NWE).

That's good news. I was wondering how people get FSMC work ...

I restored the Chibistudio from the zip file and it works now with no errors... I guess something was changed that wasn't supposed to.

Thanks

Hi,

I'm new to the STM32 microcontrollers, I'm trying to port my application on a STM32F4-Discovery. I started with the demo applications that come with the Chibi-studio. While trying to build the demo for the STM32F4-Discovery board I get these build errors:
