configs/pic32mx README
=====================
-This README file discusses the port of NuttX to the PIC32MX board from
-PCB Logic Design Co. This board features the MicroChip PIC32MX460F512L.
-The board is a very simple -- little more than a carrier for the PIC32
-MCU plus voltage regulation, debug interface, and an OTG connector.

+Configuration sub-directories
+-----------------------------
ostest:
This configuration directory, performs a simple OS test using
apps/examples/ostest.
+ NOTES:
+
+ 1. The serial console is on UART1. Therefore, you will need an external
+ RS232 driver or TTL serial-to-USB converter. The UART1 TX and RX
+ pins are available on:
+
+ TX -- Pin 53: U1TX/RF8
+ RX -- Pin 52: U1RX/RF2
+
+ Power for the converter is available from the power point connector:
+
+ GND -- POWER POINT: GND
+ Vcc -- POWER POINT: Vdd (3.3V) -- Or P32_VBUS (+5V)
+ Or +5V from a USB PC port.
+
+ The serial console is configured for 115200 8N1 by default.
+
+ 2. By default, this configuration uses an older Microchip C32 toolchain
+ for Windows (the newer ones seem to be incompatible) and builds under
+ Cygwin (or probably MSYS). That
+ can easily be reconfigured, of course.
+
+ Build Setup:
+ CONFIG_HOST_WINDOWS=y : Builds under Windows
+ CONFIG_WINDOWS_CYGWIN=y : Using Cygwin
+
+ System Type:
+ CONFIG_MIPS32_TOOLCHAIN_MICROCHIPW_LITE=y : Older C32 toolchain
+
nsh:
This configuration directory holds configuration files tht can
be used to support the NuttShell (NSH).

+
+ The serial console is configured for 115200 8N1 by default.
+
+ 2. Support for NSH built-in applications is enabled.
+
+ 3. By default, this configuration uses an older Microchip C32 toolchain
+ for Windows (the newer ones seem to be incompatible) and builds under
+ Cygwin (or probably MSYS). That
+ can easily be reconfigured, of course.
+
+ Build Setup:

+
+ System Type:
+ CONFIG_MIPS32_TOOLCHAIN_MICROCHIPW_LITE=y : Older C32 toolchain
+
+ 4. To enable LCD1602 support:
+
+ Device Drivers:
+ CONFIG_LCD=y : Enable LCD menus
+ CONFIG_LCD_LCD1602=y : Select LCD1602
+
+ Library Routines:
+ CONFIG_LIB_SLCDCODEC=y : Enable the SLCD CODEC
+
+ System Type -> PIC32MX Peripheral Support:
+ CONFIG_PIC32MX_PMP=y : Enable PMP support
+
+ To enable apps/examples/slcd to test the LCD:
+
+ Application Configuration:
+ CONFIG_NSH_ARCHINIT=y : Needed to initialize the SLCD
+ CONFIG_EXAMPLES_SLCD=y : Enable apps/examples/slcd use /dev/lcd1602
+ CONFIG_EXAMPLES_SLCD_DEVNAME="/dev/lcd1602"
+
+ To enable LCD debug output:
+
+ Device Drivers:
+ CONFIG_LCD=y : (Needed to enable LCD debug)
+
+ Build Setup:
+ CONFIG_DEBUG=y : Enable debug features
+ CONFIG_DEBUG_VERBOSE=y : Enable LCD debug
+
+ NOTE: At this point in time, testing of the SLCD is very limited because
+ there is not much in apps/examples/slcd. Certainly there are more bugs
+ to be found. There are also many segment-encoded glyphs in stm32_lcd.c
+ But there is a basically functional driver with a working test setup
+ that can be extended if you want a fully functional SLCD driver.
