Raspberry Pi 2 Model B Bare Metal Reference Design

brettacook
brettacook over 6 years ago

I've been searching the web for the past day and I must just not know where to look.  I can find bare metal examples for the Raspberry Pi (1) and the Raspberry Pi 3, but I have been unable to find any blogs, posts, forums, etc that have references for bare metal examples for the Raspberry Pi 2.

I went so far as to try building the Raspberry Pi reference design I found, but regardless of what I did after building it, I couldn't get my Raspberry Pi 2b to actually boot it.

 

Just in case there's confusion, I'm not looking to boot Linux, but rather to create a simple few lines of code to just flash the LED. If I can do this, I can expand to whatever I want since i'll know how to get the bootloader (in the GPU) to work for me.

 

I'm a NOOB with the Raspberry Pi, but I've been doing embedded systems for a long time.  If there's anyone out there that can point me to the right place, I know I can figure it out.

 

Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions.

    So much changed since then - now we have Circle, a really mature RPi BM framework. Posted about it a /technologies/code_exchange/b/blog/posts/going-bare-metal-on-raspberry-pi-431574917

    I'm not sure if you are aware but the post you made is to content that is five years old. I see by your membership points you are a new member. The anomaly of an old post suddenly looking like there new is a gremlin that continues to haunt the site. I myself have posted to aged out content because it suddenly appeared and it was a topic of interest. Unless you were reviewing old material and thought to post on something, my comments may be unnecessary.
