platform-apollo3blue

This is an experimental platform to allow the use of SparkFun's Arduino framework in PlatformIO.

How To Use This

As this is experimental, it requires a manual install.

Supported Frameworks and Tools

Platform-apollo3blue now supports the following:

1. Frameworks:
   • Arduino - sparkfun/Arduino_Apollo3
     • Core V1
     • Core V2
   • Ambiq Suit SDK - sparkfun/AmbiqSuiteSDK
2. Tools:
   • Segger JLink with platformio
     • Upload protocol
     • Debugger

To specify which framework and version to use, see below or a more detailed example.

Quick Start

Here we document the quickest way to get started using platform-apollo3blue.

1. Install platform-apollo3blue

$ pio platform install git+https://github.com/nigelb/platform-apollo3blue

2. Select and Install a version of Arduino_Apollo3

The quickest and easiest way to install Arduino_Apollo3 is to create a project and specify the version as a git repo.

$ mkdir new_project
$ cd new_project

And then either:

Core V2

$ pio init -b SparkFun_RedBoard_Artemis_ATP -O"platform_packages=framework-arduinoapollo3@https://github.com/sparkfun/Arduino_Apollo3#v2.2.0"

or:

Core V1

Until the version number is bumped for the core v1 branch, I am maintaining a fork of it here with the required updates.

$ pio init -b SparkFun_RedBoard_Artemis_ATP -O"platform_packages=framework-arduinoapollo3@https://github.com/nigelb/Arduino_Apollo3#v1.2.1_pio"

Manual install of sparkfun/Arduino_Apollo3

If you don't want to use my forked repo, or you want to be able to have concurrent projects that use core v1 and core v2 without having platformio reinstall Arduino_Apollo each time, you can manually install both version of the cores.

See the Manual Installation and Using Multiple Versions of Arduino_Apollo3.
