[GD32L233C-START Review] + Unboxing and Building a Development Environment [Copy link]

1. Preface

First of all, I would like to thank eeworld and GigaDevice for providing this trial opportunity. I have used GD32F103CBT6 in previous projects , and the development was quite smooth, but power consumption has always been a relatively weak link of GD . Later, an agent came to promote GD 's low-power series, which is the L series. Basically, the projects on hand require low power consumption, so I am more interested in this L series. I happened to encounter this evaluation event and played with this board.

After looking through the manual, I found out that this microcontroller is based on the ARM Cortex -M23 core. Haha, in the past two years, the good ones have been the M33 security core, which is probably used in applications such as smart homes.

2. Unpacking and development environment setup

( 1 ) First, here are some beautiful photos of the board. The layout looks familiar.

A brief introduction to the onboard resources:

1. GD-LINK
2. 2 buttons
3. 4 LED lights
4. A USB to serial port
5. One USB port
6. SWD programming port
7. The rest is the IO port lead

2. Environment Construction

The official example is keil V5 version. I have used F103 chip before. I just need to add pack package. Double click GigaDevice.GD32L23x_DFP_1.0.0.pack and install it.

The routine runs:

no problem.

3. A little advice

1. Since the L series focuses on low power consumption, the low power consumption value should be placed at the beginning to let everyone know how low the power consumption can be.
2. Added power consumption test application to the development board application guide
3. Test interface provided on the development board

4. Development Plan

1. An external LCD screen for display
2. Using ADC to collect PT1000 temperature sensor
3. An external serial port transparent LORA wireless RF module sends data
4. Low power consumption function (tentative)
