Coldfire 5307 5407

Hi,

Is a port to the Coldfire 5307 and/or 5407 in the works or is anyone interested in it?

My company is considering developing a new board based on either the 5307 or 5407. I saw that Bernard Kuhn has ported to the MCF5272 and MFC5282 processors.

I'm willing to give a MFC5307/5407 port a shot but I am sort of a newbie at this so any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Just to know where I'm coming from:

I a previous job I have created embedded Linux systems and toolchains, but my colleague created the hardware design, boot code, kernel port and kernel drivers.

I have written firmware for motorola, avr, pic and arm processors in both assembly and C. I have some knowledge of hardware design (basically needed to write effective firmware)

So as far as I can see my knowledge gap lies in between straight firmware and application systems.

I am eager to learn and if I am able to contribute something useful it would be my pleasure.

Best Regards

Alwin Leerling

Hi Alwin,

You can try using the ports for 547x/548x processors (check the board/freescale/ directory).

Ciao
