From Open Silicon to Real Hardware: Hands-On RISC-V Development w/ Zephyr and Puppy Microcontroller
summary
Brazil’s Puppy is a PULPissimo-derived RISC‑V microcontroller running up to 100 MHz with crypto and AI acceleration, delivered as open‑source hardware and software on GitHub and integrated with Zephyr + MCUboot and Arduino form factors. Workshop attendees compile and flash Zephyr apps using west, inspect project config and device tree aliases, run a working hello world and a PWM buzzer music demo tied to an active‑low button, and validate an 8 PWMs / drone proof‑of‑concept that actually spins motors.
