STM32F4 Discovery and Espruino

Some time ago I installed Espruino on the STM32F4 Discovery board.

Here my notes:

sudo aptitude install cmake libusb-1.0-0-dev
git clone https://github.com/texane/stlink.git
cd stlink
cmake .
make
# install into /usr/local/
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig -v

How you should be able to see the STM32F4 Discovery board:

$ sudo st-info --probe

How you should be able to see the STM32F4 Discovery board:

And here a small program which reads out the accelerometer LIS302DL and the most upper LED will be lit up. Be aware that on newer F4 Discovery boards this model has changed to LIS3DSH, which is not compatibel.

function onInit() {
 SPI1.setup({sck: A5, miso:A6, mosi:A7});
 SPI1.send([0x20,0b01000111], E3);
}

var avrx=0.0, avry=0.0;
function getAcc() {
  var accx = SPI1.send([0xA9,0], E3)[1];
  var accy = SPI1.send([0xAB,0], E3)[1];
  if (accx>127) accx-=256;
  if (accy>127) accy-=256;
  avrx = 0.1*accx + 0.9*avrx;
  avry = 0.1*accy + 0.9*avry;
  digitalWrite(LED1, avrx > 32);
  digitalWrite(LED4, avrx < -32);
  digitalWrite(LED2, avry > 32);
  digitalWrite(LED3, avry < -32);
}
onInit();setInterval(getAcc, 10);
