Added support for samc21_xpro; using same openocd target as samd21_xpro #100

Resolve #92 Support for SAMC21

Added a new board file for Microchip SAMC21 XplainedPRO board. The OpenOCD target still points to at91samdXX as I could not find a samcXX specific version and could not see anything specific to SAMD which would prevent it to work on SAMC.
Added SVD file downloaded from the CMSIS ARM website
Updated all the example files for the mbed framework with the new board

This change was tested with a SAMC21 XplainedPRO board. I am new to this so I hope I provided all the required information.

Hi, I see tests with mbed are failing.

I did test the change (build, upload, debug) with a SAMC21 XplainedPRO board, but I am not using any framework (I am importing an AtmeslStart generated framework, but that is another story).

Possible options:

give me some hints of what is being looked up for the mbed framework and I'll see if I can address this as well
keep the board definition, but remove the mbed framework from it (and clean up the examples)
cancel this pull request

Apologies for not having checked this aspect before issuing a pull request

Regards, nico

Hi @zeroisnan ! Thanks for the PR! It looks like this board doesn't support mbed framework, so there is no reason to mention it in the board manifest (you can assign an empty list to the frameworks filed). For the same reason this board shouldn't have been added to the examples. As for openocd target, it should be fine since you correctly specified the chipname field.

The url https://developer.mbed.org/platforms/SAMC21-XPRO/ seems broken as well.

zeroisnan commented 4 years ago

HI @valeros how is the URL used? If it is for information purposes, I could like the page at Microchip https://www.microchip.com/DevelopmentTools/ProductDetails/PartNO/ATSAMC21-XPRO

valeros commented 4 years ago

https://www.microchip.com/DevelopmentTools/ProductDetails/PartNO/ATSAMC21-XPRO is just what we need.

zeroisnan commented 4 years ago

done, let me know if anything else is needed

maxgerhardt commented 4 years ago

@zeroisnan, do you have a PlatformIO example project for the chip, presumably using the ASF or Atmel Start framework?
