Hi Guillermo,
welcome to RIOT also from my side! Can you maybe provide some more
details on the specific LPCxpresso board you are targeting, especially
on the radio that is included?
For you porting efforts, best keep close to the structure of the ARM
Cortex-M based boards, as these are the newest and cleanest ports that
keep to the intended board/cpu structure. For example the STM discovery
or the iot-lab_M3 boards should give you a solid foundation. Be careful
with the mbed_lpc1768 though, as this port is very rudimentary and does
not fully comply with the structure we intend to use...
Let us know if you need any assistance!
Cheers,
Hauke

Hi people.
New comer to RIOT, working on an LPCxpresso board, got RIOT running at
some extend in the board. Now I'm interested on implementing a driver
for this transceiver, hardware timers, rtc, spi, etc... but don't
really know which APIs should I use.
I have been digging the source, doxygen documentation, mailing list,
issues, etc. and don't have a clear vision of direction the
development efforts are leaning to...
Should I start using the Peripheral drivers APIs? I think the APIs are
some what clean and clear, but I can't seem to find any consumers of
those APIs in the main tree.
If those APIs are going to be the HAL for RIOT I could start using
them and contribute some feedback and testing of hardware independent
drivers with those APIs.
Implementing a good HAL is fundamental to a portable OS, like *BSDs (
I specially like the NetBSD APIs), and for making RIOT a big player in
the IoT.
Could someone orient me in the right direction.
Thanks.
