Sample Projects and Code for Intel Quark D2000 Development Board’s GPIO and PWM Features
Beyond “hello world,” All About Circuits have some working sample projects and code to further explore the Intel Quark D2000 Development Board’s capabilities, with some helpful additional information about the board’s GPIOs. The how-tos are built on a previous installment in the series with additional links to documentation provided by Intel.
In part one of this series, we introduced the new Quark D2000 Microcontroller development board and reviewed some of its many features. In this part, we will get down to programming some of those features.
It is assumed that you have installed the D2000 board software, including the Intel System Studio and have successfully performed an update of the target ROM. Additionally, it is assumed that you have set up a terminal using a USB/serial board and cable and that you have enough familiarity with the Eclipse software to compile and run the “Hello World” example that is included in the software suite.
Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, or even use Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for MakeCode, CircuitPython, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
