Colibri MCU5

Colibri MCU5 is a processor board for the Colibri carrier boards. It uses a Raspberry Pi RP2354A as the MCU.

Programming

The MCU5 comes preloaded with the zeptoforth programming language and environment. This means that you can interactively develop programs, with real-time access to the STM32L475 peripherals, so instead of the Edit-Compile-Flash-Run cycle you get a Edit-Run cycle. And programs can either run from RAM (during development) or from Flash.

C/C++

If Forth is not your cup of tea, the standard SWDIO/SWCLK pins are available on the M.2 connector, as well as BOOT0 + USART1 for effective development environment. We recommend the use of the STM32CubeMX to set up the MCU correctly, and then your favorite IDE for the edit-compile-flash-run cycle.

Zephyr

Zerphyr is an MCU-independent embedded OS, with a very modular approach to software, which fits quite well with the modular support of Streamline and Colibri products.
