Hi everyone,
I have an application that was developed back in the 90's on a Motorola 68HC11 8-bit micro controller written in assembly language. I would like to migrate to the STR750F 32-bit ARM micro controller.

Where should I start? From what I understand I will have to convert the assembly code into C.

I was able to get the STR750F board working, built and download the test program (main.c) onto the board, played around with the code a little bit.

Thanks!

Answer to your question was obvious unless you don't want to repeat your efforts coding asm for STR750F. C is good enough :)
If you are looking for some alternatives - write (or find) the virtual machine running on STR750F and able to perform 68HC11 code.
You will (theoretically) have your old 68HC11-code running on new mcu.

Let community know about your choice :) Good luck !
