support for RedBearLabs BLENano hardware revision 1.5 #282

Closed ghost closed 7 years ago

ghost commented 9 years ago

Hardware revision 1.5 supports 32kb ram instead of the 16kb supported by 1.0. Does that mean a new board should be added called redBearLabBLENano15 ?

ghost commented 9 years ago

It still doesn't show up on this list https://developer.mbed.org/platforms/?pvend=19 so it probably shouldn't be added until it does. I've asked the RedBearLabs folks about getting it added there.

Hi @jrobeson I think, you needn't add a new board. For now, the best way is to use redBearLabBLENano board with ld-script for 32 kbyte version: https://github.com/mbedmicro/mbed/blob/master/libraries/mbed/targets/cmsis/TARGET_NORDIC/TARGET_MCU_NRF51822/TOOLCHAIN_GCC_ARM/TARGET_MCU_NORDIC_32K/NRF51822.ld

You can use build_flags option in your platformio.ini file:

[env:redBearLabBLENano]
platform = nordicnrf51
framework = mbed
board = redBearLabBLENano
build_flags = -Wl,-Tpath_to_script.ld

Is this acceptable for you?

ghost commented 9 years ago

I don't think that's acceptable for a a user to have to specially configure any released board (unless other people have to do that). do any other boards have to do that? I see multiple versions of teensy for example.

Also the link to the mbed platform page will likely be different than this one.

@jrobeson thanks! Please report us when this board will be added.

ghost commented 9 years ago

I'd submit a PR myself if it's simply adding to the json file, as long as you suggest a name.

valeros commented 9 years ago

It isn't so simple, so it would be better if you notify us when this board will be added.

Why is adding that board so difficult? Should the mbed framework not work with a lot of Cortex-M-based boards?
