DFR_CVC

Overview

The DFR CVC project provides the code repository for the Dartmouth Formula Racing Central Vehicle Controller. The code is written in C and runs on the CVC's STM32F7 microcontroller (ARM M7 processor).

Development

The current CVC development toolchain has only been validated on Windows OS. It is theoretically possible to use the same toolchain on a Mac or Linux OS.

To set up your development environment:

  1. Install the STM32 System Workbench software: https://www.openstm32.org/Installing%2BSystem%2BWorkbench%2Bfor%2BSTM32%2Bwith%2Binstaller
  2. Clone this repository and save it to your local machine. Github provides instructions for how to do this.
  3. Open the project as a C/C++ project from the System Workbench and build.

To flash the board

The CVC board is flashed using the ST-Link external debugger/programming cable. The Nucleo development boards have on-board debuggers and can be flashed using a micro-USB programming cable.
