FRDM-K22F MBED Support

21 Oct 2014

We are seriously considering moving our microcontroller development to the K22F. We are impressed with the feature set and performance for the cost. We could potentially use mbed to start our development and even leverage the mbed OS, as we could use the services of an RTOS.

It is not clear how one leverages mbed for commercial production unless one has a starting kit/platform and the ability to export to an external tool. For us, the FRDM-K22F board, with an export option to Kinetis Design Studio, may be ideal. However, right now, the mbed support alone is in beta, and we have no idea when an export to KDS option will be available.

How soon might the FRDM-K22F mbed package be in full release, and how soon might it have export support to KDS? If we can vote for priorities, we would wholeheartedly request priority on this, as we want to start working with our new platform as early as next week.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

We have now committed to the K22F for production but I hit a snag with the frdm_rtos program for the K22F. It appears that the K22F is not supported by mbed rtos. Please tell me this isn't true as we are counting on moving forward with mbed-rtos on this platform and I need it working now.

In the works. Check back soon or when this is merged. https://github.com/mbedmicro/mbed/pull/732

Thanks, Sam. I did have some luck with much thanks to Eric for his assistance. I have tried bringing in some other projects that might prove very helpful, but unfortunately I keep getting an error including "device.h" which smells of a device support issue.

I am actually off today but should hit it again on Monday.

Enjoy your weekend!

Device.h errors generally means that the included mbed lib is out of date. Simply right mouse button, update on the mbed lib should fix that. Most libs should run out of the box on the K22F, but there will always be some exceptions (for exampel those directly addressing registers of the target MCU).
