RTOS breaks USBDevice on LPC11U24
I can't seem to get the USBDevice library to work alongside RTOS library on an LPC11U24. I'm trying to combine the USBHID demo with the basic RTOS demo, but as soon as I add the USBHID hid(8, 8); line, everything grinds to a halt. No flashing LEDs, nothing. And yet I can run the same code on a KL25Z just fine. Do the RTOS and USBDevice libraries use so much RAM that they can't coexist on an LPC11U24?
#include "mbed.h" #include "rtos.h" #include "USBHID.h" //LED objects DigitalOut led1(LED1); DigitalOut led2(LED2); DigitalOut led3(LED3); //USB objects USBHID hid(8, 8); HID_REPORT send_report; HID_REPORT recv_report; void led1_thread(void const *args) { while (true) { led1 = !led1; Thread::wait(500); } } void led2_thread(void const *args) { while (true) { led2 = !led2; Thread::wait(1000); } } int main() { send_report.length = 8; Thread thread1(led1_thread); Thread thread2(led2_thread); while (true) { //Fill the report for (int i = 0; i < send_report.length; i++) send_report.data[i] = rand() & 0xff; //Send the report hid.send(&send_report); //try to read a msg if(hid.readNB(&recv_report)) { led3 = !led3; for(int i = 0; i < recv_report.length; i++) { printf("%d ", recv_report.data[i]); } printf("\r\n"); } Thread::wait(100); } }

Any update on this? I think I have the same issue on a lpc1768
Yea, I am actually having similar problems as well. I am using the lpc1768 and as soon as I add the mbed-rtos library. It all breaks.
posted by 29 Sep 2014I posted an issue for this problem on github: https://github.com/mbedmicro/mbed/issues/470 But not much response at the minute, can't find the problem myself because I know nothing about USB

Ok, fixed the first problem. Apparently USBHID hangs the system until a USB cable is connected. However, the moment I write to it with SimpleHIDWrite it crashes. Any ideas would be appreciated.
posted by Neil Thiessen 08 Nov 2013Can you elaborate on what you did to get the above example working? I'm running it (except for changing the LED pins) and it is behaving as you describe.
Thanks,

posted by Neil Thiessen 25 Jul 2014Hi Neil, Thanks for the comment. Still no joy. I found the issue you posted about the initial stack pointer being incorrect and verified it is correct in the RTOS source code. I discovered I have the 301 variant which has less memory. I tried changing INITIAL_SP down to 0x10001800 and cutting the number of threads down to 1 but that still didn't work. I've ordered a few of the 401 devices on the off chance that this is the issue. Very strange.
