ARM Cortex Bare Metal DIY by Neil Ludban

With hundreds of powerful low cost ARM microprocessor evaluation boards to choose from, and freely available tools like Mbed and FreeRTOS, it's never been easier to get a quick start on that new embedded system project. But as the project grows, eventually something doesn't work and progress comes to a full stop while you dig into the low level details of SDKs, toolchains, vendor drivers, and silicon errata.

This talk will be a sort of roadmap covering the basics from selecting a board and connecting a JTAG debugger, through assembly and C code startup, to writing device driver interrupt handlers and supporting C++. Specific examples will be shown for a work-in-progress project utilizing the FRDM-K64F development board.

WARNING: IF YOU PARK IN THE PARKING LOT ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE BUILDING, YOUR CAR WILL BE TOWED AT YOUR EXPENSE!!!
Instead, park in the North parking lot. This is a recent change in policy.
