Eclipse

One of the Big Tasks in the Eclipse+MC1322x project is that we need to support a JTAG protocol converter. Since the Segger JLink comes with the Freescale DSK this seems like a reasonable choice. (Tho' I might investigate an FTDI-based protocol converter, time permitting.)

I have made significant progress fixing the OpenOCD Jlink code, so that it works with the MC1322x. Since I'm new to the whole ARM world I don't quite know how to submit my patches. I'll post more when I succeed.

As I mentioned in my previous post we are close to getting up on MC1322x with the Eclipse/GNU toolchain.

The project I submitted in the previous post uses the devkitARM GNU-ARM toolchain from http://www.devkitpro.org/ . In the Project->Properties->Setting->Environment you need to set the three environment variable to point to you installation of devkitARM (or whatever gnu-arm toolchain you picked.)

There are a few problems:

So the big news about why I'm restarting this blog is that I've been working on a port of FreeRTOS to the new Freescale MC1322x ARM7 + 802.15.4 radio. This is an awesome part!

The attached file includes two projects in the same folder.

Project 1: An IAR project that will bring up FreeRTOS and SMAC on a Freescale DSK 1322x-SRB. You will see two blinking LEDs: one for task1 and one for task2. Task2 blinks at half the rate of task1.
