Renesas RA4M1 support #138

Closed KristijanZic closed 9 months ago

KristijanZic commented 9 months ago

Arduino UNO R4 WiFi featuring Renesas RA4M1 chip came out recently. Are you thinking of adding support for it?

Please provide information about the board and main chip.

Please provide information about the board and main chip.

https://store.arduino.cc/pages/uno-r4 says "32-bit Arm® Cortex®-M4" and that is not an AVR-device.

Are you thinking of adding support for it?

Probably an impulsive question and I think it should be refined. @KristijanZic what outcome of this issue, #138, are you aiming for?

Example of a better issue:

Arduino UNO R4 WiFi featuring Renesas RA4M1 chip came out recently. I want to help this project that it gets Rust support. Are you thinking of adding support for it? Should I make here merge requests or better at another git repository?

Yes

Read that as "I don't believe that @KristijanZic wants to help here, neither does have any merge requests pending". I do hope that I will be proven wrong.

Get off your high horse 🤣

@stappersg, please dial it back a bit...

@KristijanZic, as @stappersg wrote, the RA4M1 chip is an ARM microcontroller and thus unsuitable for inclusion in the avr-device crate. It needs to be supported by its own peripheral access crate.

I am not sure if anyone has already started working on Rust support for this chip. At least I haven't heard about it yet... I think you may be best off asking in the Rust Embedded community channels whether anyone already started working on this.

Thank you. I'm new to this so I appreciate the info. I'll ask around in the Rust Embedded or get a different board.
