·146 words·1 min

Introduction #

Last couple of weeks I have been playing with this great board called “Arm Pro Mini” (name that came after the Arduino Pro Mini). This board is a small barebone open source ARM M0 Microcontroller that was designed to help makers take the bold move from the Arduino “world” to the next step into the feared ARM architecture.

Right now I am programming it using the mbed.com platform to program the board and explore this great RTOS dev environment.
