Hi, Question as title : I have an existing product that has an ARM Cortex M3 CPU and which I need to retrofit with assymetric crypto to send small amounts of encrypted data. The CPU I am landed with doen't have a crypto module available and cannot be changed so I need a C library that can do assymetric crypto (key exchange etc) and still run, even if slowly) in a restricted mem

Here[1] you will find the vector table of Cortex-M3 core. There are 4 vectors (16 bytes) that are named "Reserved" (plus one more at index 13). Do you think they can be used for custom purposes? The word "Reserved" seems this can't be done. I'd like to use those vectors, that are in the non-volatile Flash memory, to store some data. In my case, I will save the MAC address (6 bytes...

Hi, I'm trying to counter some pulses (2-10usec width) using the LPC1768 Cortex-M3 microcontroller. There are 2 channels on which I have count the pulses on. I have to allow only pulses that are > =2us pulse width (so we cannot simply use the counter function). But it is turning out to be an incredibly difficult feat to achieve this on a 100MHz Cortex-M3. The problem arises when we try to mea

Hi, I am learning ARM Cortex-A8 CPU. In order to write optimized assembly code, I want to know the instruction scheduling. From A8 TRM, it gives the following Table 16-4. I don't know how to use the cycle count, and its relationship with source and destination register. If cycle count is independent, the question is how to use it in scheduling. If cycle count is relevant to the s

I don't know if it is an issue specific to Atmel SAMC21 Cortex-M0+ devices or not. I wrote a simple timer driver: a 32-bits hw counter clocked at 875kHz (14MHz/16) that triggers an interrupt on overflow (every 1h 21'). In the interrupt I increment the 32-bits global variable _ticks_high. The 64-bits number composed by _ticks_high (upper 32-bits) and the hw counter (lower 32-bits) is m...

I need to reproduce a short audio stream with a Cortex-M0+ MCU (it's SAM D21E from Atmel/Microchip). The audio bitstream will be stored in an external SPI Flash memory (I need to manage many short audio streams, so the internal Flash memory is not sufficient). SAMD21 features DAC, SPI and DMA. The audio will not be high-fidelity. 8 bits at 8kHz sampling frequency is enough. I didn't m...

Hi, I am looking for some pointers, links or apps notes. Consider a Cortex M3 based system which has a deep sleep mode whereby CPU core is powered down, but the system RAM retains state (retention RAM). Prior to entering deep sleep, I would like to save "CPU Context" to give me the fastest startup response after a wake event. (I think that on some older ARM CPUs, this was called "dor
