TivaCRustBlink

This repository demonstrates a simple "blinky" application using Rust on the TI TM4C123GXL LaunchPad. It serves as a minimal starting point for embedded Rust development on Tiva C microcontrollers using the TivaCRustWare framework.

Features

Toggles the on-board LED at a fixed interval
Written in no_std Rust
Uses TivaCRustWare bindings for safe access to GPIO peripherals
Fully compatible with the TI TM4C123GXL LaunchPad

Requirements

Rust toolchain with support for embedded development (thumbv7em-none-eabihf)
cargo-binutils, arm-none-eabi-gdb, or openocd tools for flashing/debugging
TivaWare installed and integrated via TivaCRustWare
A TM4C123GXL LaunchPad board

Setup

Clone this repository:

git clone https://github.itap.purdue.edu/wang32/TivaCRustBlink.git
cd TivaCRustBlink

Make sure TivaCRustWare is available and correctly linked as a dependency.
Build the project:
```
cargo build --release
```
Flash the binary to the LaunchPad using your preferred flashing tool (e.g., OpenOCD, arm-none-eabi-gdb).
