As it is, the HAL library comes with a tick at every 1 millisecond, like a "millis" in an Arduino library. It is your application's timer, allowing you to plan timed, non-blocking tasks, like in a real-time operating system. But no microsecond delay function provided 😦 . And you know, many initialization procedures or protocols … Continue reading Without microseconds, you’re just an outsider

In the blink of an … LED
I strongly desired to enter 32bit arm microcontroller world with Atmels' SAM-D21 (Cortex-M0+) microcontroller, but the Arduino Zero board came very late and expensive... then Atmel was acquired and... And STM32 it was! In form of the Nucleo board which I see it much over Arduino Zero in terms of features, and four times cheaper!So, … Continue reading In the blink of an … LED
My first Nucleo board
Nucleo L152RE board is a present for my birthday and also my first Cortex-M3 microcontroller ever. A board which must be programmed from the Linux, as is the only operating system I use. And is what I did and... failed! Why I have to start with a failure every time I go to a different … Continue reading My first Nucleo board
