STM32F429 Discovery Linux BSP
|
|
This is the Linux (uClinux) BSP (Board Support Package) and software development environment for the STmicroelectronics STM32F429 Discovery board.
The STM32F429 Discovery board is the first board in the popular line of the low-cost STmicro Discovery boards that provides resources sufficient for running Linux (in its uClinux form) on the STM32. Emcraft believes that Linux is a great OS choice for the advanced STM32F4 devices. We make this BSP available for those who are interested in running Linux on the STM32F4 and would like to evaluate it using the readily available low-cost Discovery board.
This is a software-only product. It does not include the STM32F429 Discovery board. Emcraft does not sell the Discovery board; please purchase it from STmicro or its distributors. This BSP will not run on any Discovery boards other than the STM32F429 Discovery.
