- Add board.md files for MIMXRT1060_EVK and MIMXRT1064_EVK warning about
their experimental state.
- Add separate deploy_teensy.md and deploy_mimxrt.md files.
The ARCH MIX board exposes the Ethernet Pins at it's connectors. Therefore
the software is configured for using a LAN8720 PHY device. Breakout boards
with the LAN8720 are easily available.
This will be used by https://micropython.org/download/ to generate the
full listing of boards and firmware files.
Optionally supports a board.md for additional customisation of the
download page, as well as deploy.md for flashing instructions.

By moving code to ITCM, like vm, gc, parse, runtime. The change affects
mostly the execution speed of MicroPython code. The speed is increased by
up to a factor of 6, especially for MCU with small cache.
This commit implements 10/100 Mbit Ethernet support in the mimxrt port.
The following boards are configured without ETH network:
- MIMXRT1010_EVK
- Teensy 4.0
The following boards are configured with ETH network:
- MIMXRT1020_EVK
- MIMXRT1050_EVK
- MIMXRT1060_EVK
- MIMXRT1064_EVK
- Teensy 4.1
Ethernet support tested with TEENSY 4.1, MIMRTX1020_EVK and MIMXRT1050_EVK.
Build tested with Teensy 4.0 and MIMXRT1010_EVK to be still working.
Compiles and builds properly for MIMXRT1060_EVK and MIMXRT1064_EVK, but not
tested lacking suitable boards.
Tested functions are:
- ping works bothway
- simple UDP transfer works bothway
- ntptime works
- the ftp server works
- secure socker works
- telnet and webrepl works
The MAC address is 0x02 plus 5 bytes from the manifacturing info field,
which can be considered as unique per device.
Some boards do not wire the RESET and INT pin of the PHY transceiver. For
operation, these are not required. If they are defined, they will be used.
Adds support for SDRAM via `SEMC` peripheral. SDRAM support can be
enabled in the mpconfigboard.mk file by setting `MICROPY_HW_SDRAM_AVAIL`
to `1` and poviding the size of the RAM via `MICROPY_HW_FLASH_SIZE`.
When SDRAM support is enabled the whole SDRAM is currently used used
for MicroPython heap.

- Moves definition of BOARD_FLASH_SIZE and other header files related to
flash configuration into the Makefile.
- Adds board specific clock_config.h.
- Adds board.h, pin_mux.h, and peripherals.h as they are
required by NXP MCU SDK in order to use our own clock_config.h.
- Renames board specific FlexSPI configuration files.
- Updates flash frequency of MIMXRT1020_EVK
- Creates separated flash_config files for QSPI NOR and
QSPI Hyper flash.
- Unifies VFS start address to be @ 1M for 1010 and 1020 boards.
- Unifies 1050EVK boards
- Adds support to both NOR and HyperFlash on boards with
both capabilities.
- Adds automatic FlexRAM initialization to start-up code based on
linker script and NXP HAL.
- Applies code formatting to all files in mimxrt port.
With this change the flash configuration is restructured and
organized. This simplifies the configuration process and
provides a better overview of each board's settings. With the integration
of clock_config.h, board.h, pin_mux.h, and peripherals.h we gain better
control of the settings and clock configurations. Furthermore the
implementation of an explicit FlexRAM setup improves the system
performance and allows for performance tuning.

- Configures `PLL2->PFD0` with **198MHz** as base clock of
`USDHCx` peripheral.
- Adds guards for SDCard related files via `MICROPY_PY_MACHINE_SDCARD`
- Adds creation of pin defines for SDCard to make-pins.py
- Adds new configuration option for SDCard peripheral pinout
to mpconfigport.h
- Adds interrupt handling support instead of polling
- Adds support for `ADMA2` powered data transfer
- Configures SDCard to run in HS (high-speed mode) with **50MHz** only!
SDCard support is optional and requires `USDHC` peripheral.
Thus this driver is not available on `MIMXRT1010_EVK`.
SDCard support is enabled by setting `MICROPY_PY_MACHINE_SDCARD = 1`
in mpconfigboard.mk.

Hyperflash is used by the MIMXRT1050_EVKB, MIMXRT1060_EVK and
MIMXRT1064_EVK boards.
This commit includes:
- add support for Hyperflash
- modify MIMXRT1060_EVK and MIMXRT1064_EVK to change from QSPI to
hyperflash.
- minor incidental changes to other boards so they still build
Note: Erasing a sector on the hyperflash is slow. It takes about a second,
which seems too long, but matches the data sheet.
This avoids the irritation of the PJRC HalfKay loader on Teensy 4.0. Block
0 and 1 are properly erased and the additional formatting in the make
script is not required anymore.
This class supports SPI bus controller mode, with blocking transfers.
SPI device numbers start at 0, to comply with the pinout of the Teensy
boards. With the configured clock frequency the fastest baud rate is
33MHz. For messages longer 16 bytes DMA is used. The class uses the
existing framework with extmod/machine_spi.c.
Extended driver options:
- drive=n with n being between 1 and 6 or PIN.POWER_1 to PIN.POWER_6.
Since the pins used by the SPI are fixed, no Pin settings can be made.
Thus the drive option is added allowing to control ringing and crosstalk
on the connection.
- gap_ns=nnnnn is the time between sent data items in a frame given in ns.
Default is 2 clock cycles.
The implementation uses the LPUARTx devices. Up to 8 UARTs can be used,
given that the pins are accessible. E.g. 8 on Teensy 4.1, 5 on
MIMXRT1020_EVK.
For Tennsy 4.0 and 4.1 the UART numbers are as printed on the pinout 1..N.
The MIMXRT10xx-EVK boards have only one UART named, which gets the number
1. All other UART are assigned to different Pins:
MIMXRT1010-EVK:
D0/D1 UART 1
D6/D7 UART 2
A0/D4 UART 3
MIMXRT1020-EVK:
D0/D1 UART 1
D6/D9 UART 2
D10/D12 UART 3
D14/D15 UART 4
A0/A1 UART 5
MIMXRT1050-EVK, MIMXRT1060-EVK, MIMXRT1064-EVK:
D0/D1 UART 1
D7/D6 UART 2
D8/D9 UART 3
A1/A0 UART 4
This is required since the Teensy Halfkay loader attempts to erase all of
the flash but fails to do so, at least in my tests. Formatting brings it
back to a known state.
This commit adds full support for a filesystem on all boards, with a block
device object mimxrt.Flash() and uos.VfsLfs2 enabled.
Main changes are:
- Refactoring of linker scripts to accomodate reserved area for VFS. VFS
will take up most of the available flash. 1M is reserved for code. 9K is
reserved for flash configuration, interrupts, etc.
- Addition of _boot.py with filesystem init code, called from main.c.
- Definition of the mimxrt module with a Flash class in modmimxrt.[ch].
- Implementation of a flash driver class in mimxrt_flash.c. All flashing
related functions are stored in ITCM RAM.
- Addition of the uos module with filesystem functions.
- Implementation of uos.urandom() for the sake of completeness of the uos
module.
It uses sample code from CircuitPython supplied under MIT license, which
uses the NXP SDK example code.
Done in collaboration with Philipp Ebensberger aka @alphaFred who
contributed the essential part to enable writing to flash while code is
executing, among other things.
- modified pin type from pin_obj_t to machine_pin_obj_t
- created machine_pin.c
- implemented basic version of make-pins.py to genertate pins.c/.h files
automatically; the only alternate function currently supported is GPIO
- added af.csv files for all supported MCUs
- replaced pins.c/pins.h files with pin.csv for all boards
- implemented on/off/high/low/value/init methods
- Implemented IN/OUT/OPEN_DRAIN modes
- modified LDFLAGS for DEBUG build to get usefull .elf file for debugging

This commit implements an LED class with rudimentary parts of a pin C API
to support it. The LED class does not yet support setting an intensity.
This LED class is put in the machine module for the time being, until a
better place is found.
One LED is supported on TEENSY40 and MIMXRT1010_EVK boards.
This is an extremely minimal port to the NXP i.MX RT, in the style of the
SAMD port It's largely based on the TinyUSB mimxrt implementation, using
the NXP SDK. It currently supports the Teensy 4.0 board with a REPL over
the USB-VCP interface.
This commit also adds the NXP SDK submodule (also from TinyUSB) to
lib/nxp_driver.
Note: if you already have the tinyusb submodule initialized recursively you
will need to run the following as the tinyusb sub-submodules have been
rearranged (upstream):
git submodule deinit lib/tinyusb
rm -rf .git/modules/lib/tinyusb
git submodule update --init lib/tinyusb
