TI STELLARIS CORTEX-M3 BASED MCUs IMPLEMENTATION

This course covers all MCUs belonging to the Stellaris Cortex-M3 family, X00, 1000, 2000, 3000, 5000, 8000 & 9000 SERIES

Objectives

  • This course has 5 main objectives:
    • Describing the hardware implementation and highlighting the pitfalls
    • Describing the ARM Cortex-M3 core architecture
    • Becoming familiar with the CCS or Keil IDE and low level programming.
    • Describing the units which are interconnected to other modules, such as clocking, interrupt controller and DMA controller, because the boot program generally has to modify the setting of these units
    • Describing independent I/O modules and their drivers developed by TI (DriverLib).

  • Note that this course has been designed from the architecture of the most complex STELLARIS device, the LM3S9B96
    • Consequently, a chapter has been designed by Acsys for each possible integrated IP
    • According to the actual reference chosen by the customer, some chapters may be removed.

  • Products and services offered by ACSYS:

  • ACSYS is able to assist the customer by providing consultancies
    • Typical expertises are done during board bringup, hardware schematics review, software debugging, performance tuning.
    • ACSYS has also an expertise in FreeRTOS porting and uIP /LWIP or Interniche stack integration.

A lot of programming examples have been developed by ACSYS to help the attendee to become familiar with the CCS IDE.
