Popularly known as the Blue Pill, the STM32F103C8T6 Minimum System Development Board seems like an excellent gateway drug for getting into ARM Cortex-M3 development.
This is particularly true as it is possible to program it with the familar Arduino IDE.
It is my first look at one of these boards, so I have simple expectations - follow along some of the tutorials on the web/youtube and at least get a simple program running on the board. In the process I’ll learn a bit more about the board’s capabilities and quirks.
As always, all notes, schematics and code are in the Little Electronics & Arduino Projects repo on GitHub
