Projects to begin learning about low-level embedded programming on the STM32 platform The examples are created for the STM32F429-DISC1 Discovery board but should be portable to any other STM32 mcu

• General Embedded systems

  • https://www.coursera.org/learn/introduction-embedded-systems
    • Excellent cource about embedded systems. Not using high level IDE and stuff. In parallel check out the section on understanding ELF.
  • https://www.coursera.org/learn/embedded-software-hardware

• Understanding ELF files and some basic tools to analyze them

  • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xkD2NyRpvI4
    • Requires some microcontroller knowledge
    • Important point to remember is that all peripherals in a processor have an address associated with it, even the GPIO has an address.

    • A couple of lectures of this course are related to elf From Day2P18 to Day2P28
    • Teaches about readelf and hexdump, objdump -d (disassembly)
