PSOC™ Edge port

This port is intended to run on PSOC™ Edge microcontrollers.

Build environment

Install the following tools on your Linux host machine:

  • An ARM cross compiler such as arm-none-eabi-gcc and associated binary utilities and libc. The minimum required version is 14.2.1.

    Download the Infineon MTB GCC package and install it with the command:

     sudo apt install ./mtbgccpackage_14.2.1.265_Linux_x64.deb
    

    Alternatively, you can also install the gcc-arm-none-eabi official package:

     sudo apt-get install gcc-arm-none-eabi libnewlib-arm-none-eabi
    
  • edgeprotecttools. The minimum required version is 1.6.0.

    It can be installed from PyPi via pip:

      sudo pip install edgeprotecttools
    
  • Infineon OpenOCD. Download the latest release manually or via wget. The minimum required version is v5.8.0. For example:

      wget -O openocd.tar.gz https://github.com/Infineon/openocd/releases/download/release-v5.16.1/openocd-5.16.1.4486-linux.tar.gz
    

    And unarchive it in the desired location. For example, in the /opt/openocd dir:

      mkdir -p /opt/openocd
      tar -xzf openocd.tar.gz -C /opt/openocd --strip-components=1
    

Setting up the environment

Make sure that arm-none-eabi-gcc, edgeprotecttools and openocd are added to the system PATH.

Building and running on Linux

Before building the firmware for a given board the MicroPython cross-compiler must be built; it will be used to pre-compile some of the built-in scripts to bytecode. The cross-compiler is built and run on the host machine, using:

make -C mpy-cross

The following build commands should be run from the ports/psoc-edge directory:

Retrieve submodules:

make submodules

Build the firmware:

make BOARD=KIT_PSE84_AI

And flash it to the board:

make deploy

Note

This will also build the firmware if it has not been built yet. Use qdeploy target to avoid rebuilding the firmware.

If you have multiple boards connected, you can specify the serial number of the board to be programmed:

make deploy DEV_SERIAL_NUMBER=123456

Find more information about all the available makefile targets:

make help

Run micropython

Use any serial terminal (e.g. putty, minicom..) and establish a session with your device with 115200 bauds and 8-N-1 configuration.
