micropython on PIC32MZ (breakout board)

Post by circuit4u » Tue Sep 27, 2016 2:58 pm

Hi,
Need help to port micropython to PIC32MZ (200MHz MIPS MCU).

In terms of hardware:
There is a minimal bare metal module (with MCU, power, programming port ICSP, and USB connector) at https://www.tindie.com/products/circuit ... out-board/

Or starter kit from Microchip directly http://www.microchip.com/Developmenttoo ... O=Dm320006

In terms of software:
Microchip provides free xc32 compiler (free version has no optimization; should be fine for most tasks), and free IDE. For PIC32MZ, it required a Harmony framework on top, which is difficult for embedded developer at first.

Maybe the GCC toolchain from the LiteBSD project (https://github.com/sergev/LiteBSD/wiki) is worth a look?
