Anyone made benchmarks and testings of their own ? Will the fra GCC compiler be able to take full advantage of all the new cool things the STM32 can do ? |
Try this with GCC !! and no uptimizer
the WHILE is a problem with ARM GCC, sorry
while(testcnt<100)
{
testcnt++;
}
testcnt=0;
OK I have to add,
this while test is only a problem if the textcnt variable is defined as unsigned char
and only a problem for some users, I expect it to be GCC version dependent.
The instruction set of the Cortex M3 is not "very different" from the ARM7/ARM9.
The main difference consists in mixing 16 and 32 instructions and this is - of course- well used by GCC.
Now, there are also some minor difference, such as the new "IT" instructions (if then else), and there are fully managed by GCC.
Under RIDE7, a good experience consists in switching the device on a consistent project: from ARM 32-bit to ARM-Thumb, then to STM32 (thumb2). You will see how the code size decreases..
Hi All,
I am new to contactless smart application development.
I am looking at using the micropass platform for the application which would in clude transit loyaltys and payments.
Is a development kit for the micropass platfor available for third party developers?
Hi
Raisonance have developed the Micropass tools, but do not distribute them.
Please contact Inside Contactless for purchasing these tools.
