Recently launched via Crowd Supply the PX-HER0 Board by Piconomix a low-power ARM Cortex development board that has been specifically built with embedded education in mind, offering a complete package of hardware, software, and documentation. Watch the video below to learn more about the embedded ARM system its features, functionality and possible applications. The PX-HER0 Board is now available via Crowd Supply with prices starting from $42.
“PX-HER0 and its whole ecosystem (open source C library and documentation) are designed to be a hands-on guide to teach people to become embedded pros at their own pace. The ARM Cortex series is THE processor of choice, but it is hard to master with everyone hiding the mechanics under layers of abstraction and poor documentation. We want to reveal how it works with carefully crafted tutorials, examples, and a well structured and documented C library to create that Eureka! moment of enlightenment.”
“Also included in the PX-HER0 ecosystem is the CLI Explorer App (Command Line Interpreter) that creates a “Un*x Shell”-like environment running on the PX-HER0 board so that you can easily experiment with GPIO, PWM, ADC, DAC, I²C, SPI, and 1-Wire using only ANSI/VT100 terminal software. Native support for the PX-HER0 board has been added in Arduino_Core_STM32 version 1.8.0.”
