Today, I have made available a first set of Oberon modules to program the RP2040 using Astrobe for Cortex-M0, v9.0.3. There's also a tool to transmogrify Astrobe '.bin' file to the contents and UF2 format for the RP2040. The library contains as of today: 1) Basics to get off the ground: clocks, rese...

Interesting. Yes, this works, again a) checking the code and b) running a test program. Surprising though. The Astrobe docs about module system say: ADR returns the absolute address of the given variable. Now, that SYSTEM.ADR of a VAR procedure parameter would return the actual address of the argume...

To avoid busy-waiting at a serial output peripheral (USART), I am implementing buffered text output to a terminal. The intention is to use the DMA peripheral on the M0. Among other configuration, the DMA channel expects 1) a memory address of the buffer, and 2) the number of data items to transfer f...
