Rust on Arduino nano 33 BLE

This package is minimal example how to run program written in Rust on Arduino Nano 33 BLE. It uses Nordic nRF52480 processor, but it has different interface to flash new software than examples from nrf-hal.

Compile and flash program to the device

To flash this example package, simply run ./build.sh. You may need to change path to device from /dev/ttyACM0 to something different in build.sh file.

Compile and flash without docker

Using Docker is not strictly necessary and it exists to document what dependecies need to be installed on the system to use this example. You can compile and flash it yourself using following commands:

• cargo build --target thumbv7em-none-eabihf --release
• arm-none-eabi-objcopy -O binary target/thumbv7em-none-eabihf/release/rust-arduino-nano-33-blink target/blink.bin
• arduino-cli upload -v -b arduino:mbed_nano:nano33ble -p /dev/ttyACM0 -i target/blink.bin

Troubleshooting

No device found on TTYACM0

• Check if device is connected with lsusb.
• Check if device is present on different tty, e.g: /dev/ttyACM1 with ls /dev | grep ACM
• Check if you have write permission stty -F /dev/ttyACM0 1200
