Template for embassy rp2350 projects

This template is intended as a starting point for writing your own firmware based on the embassy libraries for the rp2350 w/ the CYW43 wireless module (rPi Pico2W)

It includes all of the knurling-rs tooling as showcased in https://github.com/knurling-rs/app-template (defmt, defmt-rtt, panic-probe, flip-link) to make development as easy as possible.

probe-rs in SWD mode is configured as the default runner, so you can run your binary with

this is an in progress port of the much better supported (by upstream libraries) rp2040 embassy template, stuff is broken

cargo run --release

Requirements

• The standard Rust tooling (cargo, rustup) which you can install from https://rustup.rs/

• Toolchain support for the cortex-m33+ processors in the rp2350 (thumbv8m.main-none-eabihf)

• flip-link - this allows you to detect stack-overflows on the first core, which is the only supported target for now.

• A probe-rs compatible probe

• A probe-rs installation or ryan-summers:feature/rp2350-flashing branch of https://github.com/ryan-summers/probe-rs.git installed for probe-rs (currently pending a PR into the probe-rs mainline) or

• the pico-sdk repo and picotool repo built, we currently expect the binary at /opt/picotool

Installation of development dependencies

rustup target install thumbv8m.main-none-eabihf
cargo install flip-link


# Installs the probe-rs tools, including probe-rs run, our recommended default runner
cargo install --locked probe-rs-tools
# or to use a custom git repo (i.e for features not in mainline)
cargo install --git https://github.com/ryan-summers/probe-rs.git --branch feature/rp2350-flashing probe-rs-tools --locked 

If you get the error binary `cargo-embed` already exists during installation of probe-rs, run cargo uninstall cargo-embed to uninstall your older version of cargo-embed before trying again.

Running

For a debug build

cargo run

For a release build

cargo run --release

If you do not specify a DEFMT_LOG level, it will be set to debug. That means println!(""), info!("") and debug!("") statements will be printed. If you wish to override this, you can change it in .cargo/config.toml

[env]
DEFMT_LOG = "off"

You can also set this inline (on Linux/MacOS)

DEFMT_LOG=trace cargo run

Flashing CYW43 WiFI+BT module firmware

If you wish you use the on-board LED or the WiFi/BT module you will need to flash the module firmware.

NOTE: By default firmware is placed at the 3MiB mark in ROM

For WiFi + Bluetooth firmware

./flashwb.sh
