ARM Programming

Piotr Esden-Tempski has this week launched a new Kickstarter campaign to raise the $10,000 to take the new 1Bitsy and Black Magic Probe into production. The new hardware has been specifically designed to “ demystify ARM programming” say it’s creators.

The open-source ARM Cortex-M4F Development Platform and Black Magic Probe has been designed to provide a Plug & Play JTAG/SWD ARM debugger, more of which can be seen in the promotional video below.

Early bird pledges are now available from just $19 with delivery estimated to take place during February 2017 to certain countries around the world.

This Kickstarter is the release of the new Black Magic Probe V2.1 together with its companion demo platform 1Bitsy V1.0. By backing this project you are enabling us to purchase parts at large enough quantities to bring Black Magic Probe and 1Bitsy to all of you at a lower price. We think the Black Magic Probe is a major improvement to all JTAG debuggers that came before it and we want to invite you to join the user community of this amazing tool. The V2.1 is another step in improving the experience of embedded software development of ARM Cortex-M platforms. We believe this is an essential piece of ARM development and security research hardware. All of your pledges will help us to continue the development of this platform.
