Peripheral

Overview

Regarding the peripheral support(such as UART, GPIO, SPI, I2C and etc.) in HummingBird SDK, we didn’t define a device or peripheral layer for different SoCs, so the peripheral drivers are directly tighted with each SoC, and if developer want to use the drivers, they can directly use the driver API defined in each SoC.

Considering this peripheral driver difference in each SoC, if you want to write portable code in HummingBird SDK, you can use include the hbird_sdk_soc.h, then you can write application which only use the resources of RISC-V Core.

If you want to use all the board resources, you can include the hbird_sdk_hal.h, then you can write application for your own board, but the application can only run in the board you provided.

Usage

If you want to learn about what peripheral driver you can use, you can check the hbird_sdk_soc.h of each SoC, and hbird_sdk_hal.h of each board.

For SoC firmware library APIs:

  • You can find the HummingBird SoC firmware library APIs in SoC/hbird/Common/Include

If you just want to use SoC firmware library API, you just need to include hbird_sdk_soc.h, then you can use the all the APIs in that SoC include directory.

For Board related APIs:

  • You can find the HummingBird EVAL Board related APIs in SoC/hbird/Board/hbird_eval/Include

If you just want to use all the APIs of Board and SoC, you just need to include hbird_sdk_hal.h, then you can use the all the APIs in that Board and SoC include directory.
