Silta - Python to STM32F4 Bridge Project
Python library and STM32F4 Discovery firmware to control the microcontroller's GPIOs and serial interfaces directly from python. This allows for intefacing with external devices quickly without having to write any firmware!
Currently supported interfaces: I2C1, GPIOs (A-E), SPI1, ADCs, DACs, PWM (2 channels)
Future support (hopefully): UART, I2C2-3, SPI2+

DAC
Must be enabled separately, since it disables SPI1 SCK
- PA4 - DAC1
- PA5 - DAC2
PWM
NOTE: PWM is currently locked at 10ms period, mainly for use with servos.
- PE5
- PE6
GPIO
Most other pins in ports A-E should work as GPIOs Notable/useful ones:
- PD12 - Green LED
- PD13 - Orange LED
- PD14 - Red LED
