Kinetis K40X256LQ100 - KwikStik RTC

kwiksay2 — Tue, 25 Feb 2020 10:58:44 GMT

I have a Kinetis Kwikstik K40 development board, that I bought a few years ago, but I see they are still available.

I has the K40x256LQ100 chip on a board with LCD display and Seggar Jlink on board and programs via USB port.

I can get basic program examples to run, Blinky etc, I am using uVision 5.29 with v4 legacy options. The target that I seem to use is MK40N512MD100...???. My question is how to start the on chip RTC. I can display the time and date using ctime, localtime etc and see the time tm struct fields in C program and change them but they don't get updated....?? always read 1 jan 00:00:00 1970 etc....epoch year. What function or settings etc should I be using.??

I can change it to read say 22 May 12:34:56 1998 and it always reads that....doesn't change as time progresses.???

Try https://www.utasker.com/kinetis/KWIKSTIK.html
Code is open source on Github, including KwikStik simulator.

thanks for reply, I had looked at utasker but it seems to be another system possibly for Codewarrior, or is it for any IDE system.???

I am trying to use armKeil uVision as it seems to be the one published on the KwikStik web pages. I had tried MCUxpresso and took it off again when couldn't get it to do anything on KwikStik, but NXP say it doesn't support KwikStik but then they suggest I should download MCUxPresso and port code from other mcu examples...???.

As far as I can see the KwikStik is still available to buy new with the same chip onboard, so does no-one do any software that supports it..????. at least with arm Keil uVision I can program and download some functions and display to LCD on board

- IAR,
- MCUXpresso
- KDS
- CodeWarrior
- S32 Design Studio
- Rowley Crossworks
- CooCox
- Green Hills
- Atollic
- GCC Make file build
- Visual Studio simulation and Visual GDB

Ok, but what is uTasker, is it just a series of bin files. How are you meant to use it...?

Hello, kwiksay2

This is the solution for working with the RTC as we discussed previously on your ticket.

Since the MCUxpresso SDK does not support the board KwikStik-K40 and there are no RTC examples for the K40 MCU wich the Kwikstik board has.

The workaround was to import the SDK example from the TWR-K60D100M SDK. Then download the SDK for the

MK40X256 MCU and create a new project importing the drivers for RTC. Then, reuse the example code for the RTC example of TWR-K60D100M into the project for the Kwikstik MCU.

Have a great day,
Diego
