<h1>Changes to CMSIS version V1.20</h1>
78
 
79
<hr>
80
 
81
<h2>1. Removed CMSIS Middelware packages</h2>
82
<p>
83
  CMSIS Middleware is on hold from ARM side until a agreement between all CMSIS partners is found.
84
</p>
85
 
86
<h2>2. SystemFrequency renamed to SystemCoreClock</h2>
87
<p>
88
  The variable name <strong>SystemCoreClock</strong> is more precise than <strong>SystemFrequency</strong>
89
  because the variable holds the clock value at which the core is running.
90
</p>
91
 
92
<h2>3. Changed startup concept</h2>
93
<p>
94
  The old startup concept (calling SystemInit_ExtMemCtl from startup file and calling SystemInit
95
  from main) has the weakness that it does not work for controllers which need a already
96
  configuerd clock system to configure the external memory controller.
97
</p>
98
 
99
<h3>Changed startup concept</h3>
100
<ul>
101
  <li>
102
    SystemInit() is called from startup file before <strong>premain</strong>.
103
  </li>
104
  <li>
105
    <strong>SystemInit()</strong> configures the clock system and also configures
106
    an existing external memory controller.
107
  </li>
108
  <li>
109
    <strong>SystemInit()</strong> must not use global variables.
110
  </li>
111
  <li>
112
    <strong>SystemCoreClock</strong> is initialized with a correct predefined value.
113
  </li>
114
  <li>
115
    Additional function <strong>void SystemCoreClockUpdate (void)</strong> is provided.<br>
116
   <strong>SystemCoreClockUpdate()</strong> updates the variable <strong>SystemCoreClock</strong>
117
   and must be called whenever the core clock is changed.<br>
118
   <strong>SystemCoreClockUpdate()</strong> evaluates the clock register settings and calculates
119
   the current core clock.
120
  </li>
121
</ul>
122
 
123
 
124
<h2>4. Advanced Debug Functions</h2>
125
<p>
126
  ITM communication channel is only capable for OUT direction. To allow also communication for
127
  IN direction a simple concept is provided.
128
</p>
129
<ul>
130
  <li>
131
    Global variable <strong>volatile int ITM_RxBuffer</strong> used for IN data.
132
  </li>
133
  <li>
134
    Function <strong>int ITM_CheckChar (void)</strong> checks if a new character is available.
135
  </li>
136
  <li>
137
    Function <strong>int ITM_ReceiveChar (void)</strong> retrieves the new character.
138
  </li>
139
</ul>

<h2>5. Core Register Bit Definitions</h2>
147
<p>
148
  Files core_cm3.h and core_cm0.h contain now bit definitions for Core Registers. The name for the
149
  defines correspond with the Cortex-M Technical Reference Manual.
150
</p>
151

<h2>7. DoxyGen Tags</h2>
200

<h2>9. Open Points</h2>
258
<p>
259
  Following points need to be clarified and solved:
260
</p>
261
<ul>
262
  <li>
263
    <p>
264
      Equivalent C and Assembler startup files.
265
    </p>
266
    <p>
267
      Is there a need for having C startup files although assembler startup files are
268
      very efficient and do not need to be changed?
269
    <p/>
270
  </li>
271
  <li>
272
    <p>
273
      Placing of HEAP in external RAM.
274
    </p>
275
    <p>
276
      It must be possible to place HEAP in external RAM if the device supports an
277
      external memory controller.
278
    </p>
279
  </li>
280
  <li>
281
    <p>
282
      Placing of STACK /HEAP.
283
    </p>
284
    <p>
285
      STACK should always be placed at the end of internal RAM.
286
    </p>
287
    <p>
288
      If HEAP is placed in internal RAM than it should be placed after RW ZI section.
289
    </p>
290
  </li>
291
  <li>
292
    <p>
293
      Removing core_cm3.c and core_cm0.c.
294
    </p>
295
    <p>
296
      On a long term the functions in core_cm3.c and core_cm0.c must be replaced with
297
      appropriate compiler intrinsics.
298
    </p>
299
  </li>
300
</ul>
301
