Rust Examples for the TI Launchpad™ kit with Sitara™ AM243x™ MCU

This package contains Rust example code for the TI Launchpad™ kit with Sitara™ AM243x™ MCU.

This board features:

• Texas Instruments AM2434 SoC (kit also available with other MCUs)
• Two Gigabit Ethernet interfaces
• 512 Mbit QSPI flash
• CAN Transceiver
• Five LEDs
• Lots of expansion headers
• On-board XDS110 debug probe

The Texas Instruments AM2434 SoC features:

• 4x Arm Cortex-R5F cores @ 800 MHz
  • Arranged as 2x dual-core clusters
  • Each cluster can run lock-step or independently
  • 32 KiB I-cache and 32 KiB D-cache per core
  • 128 KiB of Tightly Coupled Memory per cluster
• 1x Arm Cortex-M4F @ 400 MHz
  • Dedicated 256 KiB SRAM
• 2 MiB of shared SRAM with ECC
• DDR4 SDRAM Interface
• 2x SD/MMC Interfaces
• Three port Gigabit Ethernet switch
• USB 3.0 SuperSpeed Host
• PCI-Express Gen 2.0 1x
• Two "Gigabit Industrial Communication Subsytems"
  • Each has two Gigabit Ethernet MAC interfaces, three RISC processors, RAM, etc

These examples run on the Cortex-R5F at Core 0, Cluster 0.

Loading

Currently probe-rs has experimental Armv7-R support, in this PR. You will also need the YAML file in the root directory of this repo, until such time as it gets added to probe-rs.

$ git clone https://github.com/probe-rs/probe-rs
$ cd probe-rs/probe-rs-tools
$ git checkout armv7r-support
$ cargo install --path .
$ cd ~/am243x-launchpad
