Adafruit ItsyBitsy M4 Express Board Support Crate

This crate provides a type-safe Rust API for working with the Adafruit ItsyBitsy M4 Express board.

Board Features

• Microchip [ATSAMD51G] Cortex-M4 microcontroller @ 120 MHz (32-bit, 3.3V logic and power)
  • 512kB Flash
  • 192kB SRAM
• 2 MB SPI Flash chip

Prerequisites

• Install the cross compile toolchain rustup target add thumbv7em-none-eabihf
• Install cargo-hf2 the hf2 bootloader flasher tool however your platform requires

Uploading an example

Check out the repository for examples:

https://github.com/atsamd-rs/atsamd/tree/master/boards/itsybitsy_m4/examples

• Be in this directory cd boards/itsybitsy_m4
• Put your device in bootloader mode usually by hitting the reset button twice.
• Build and upload in one step $ cargo hf2 --release --example blinky_basic Finished release [optimized + debuginfo] target(s) in 0.19s Searching for a connected device with known vid/pid pair. Trying Ok(Some("Adafruit Industries")) Ok(Some("PyBadge")) Flashing "/Users/User/atsamd/boards/itsybitsy_m4/target/thumbv7em-none-eabihf/release/examples/blinky_basic" Finished in 0.079s $

Note some examples will tell you they need more features enabled $ cargo hf2 --release --example usb_serial error: target `usb_serial` in package `itsybitsy_m4` requires the features: `usb`, `use_uart_debug` Consider enabling them by passing, e.g., `--features="usb use_uart_debug"` Just follow the instructions to add --features like cargo hf2 --release --example usb_serial --features="usb use_uart_debug" Finished release [optimized + debuginfo] target(s) in 0.09s Searching for a connected device with known vid/pid pair.
