Add Adafruit Mynewt Feather BSP #5

Closed microbuilder closed 8 years ago

microbuilder commented 8 years ago

The nRF52 based Mynewt Feather should be added as a custom BSP since there are some differences from the Nordic nRF52-DK currently being used:

mynewtfeather_rev-b

Added initial BSP with bbae6f8a2112fb27c4325446461450e0a93782ff

BLE UART currently only works in one direction from Central to nRF52, probably because HW flow control is being configured in the lower level code, but we only use TXD + RXD on the feather: https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_Mynewt/blob/master/hw/bsp/feather52/src/hal_bsp.c#L23

UART works fine in both direction with Coolterm (OS X), so this may be an issue with minicom as well. Tested with the following command: $ minicom -D /dev/tty.SLAB_USBtoUART

microbuilder commented 8 years ago

To get minicom working without flow control (is there no command line flag for this???):

$ minicom -D /dev/tty.SLAB_USBtoUART

Then:

Press alt + z # Show the help screen
O # cOnfigure Minicom
Select Serial Port Setup
Type F to disable Hardware Flow Control

Select save setup as dfl and hit enter to save the minicom settings as the defaults
