Raspberry Pi Showcases Rust On The RP2350 Microcontroller


While C tends to be the go-to launguage for microcontrollers, Raspberry Pi is promoting the prospects of using Rust on their RP2350 microcontroller.

Featured on the Raspberry Pi blog on Friday is a post by embedded developer Jonathan Pallant around his work on Rust programming for the RP2350 microcontroller. With using Rust code there has been success in leveraging the RP2350 for booting in both the Arm Secure and RISC-V modes, SPI / UART / I2C peripheral support, engaging the DMA engine, reading OTP with/without ECC, double-precision co-processor, GPIO interaction, and other features.
