Hi,
I'm new to Coldfire and recently accuired a M52259DEMO dev board.
Coming from a MICROCHIP 8-bit background, where can I start? I did following the GETTING STARTED pdf that came with the M52259DEMO dev board. Its nice to see an application, but where can I start learning the environment? How do I setup register?
For example, the Coldfire comes with the MQX RTOS, how does one use the micro without the MQX...like only flashing a led?
If you can suggest any tutorials, books etc ?
Thanks,
Eben

Hello Eben,
First, welcome to the 32 bits world!!!
You can fin all you need on Freescale web site, but I suggest you some link like :
- The MCF5225x Reference Manual
For The MQX RTOS, you can find documentation in "C:\Program Files\Freescale\Freescale MQX 3.1\doc" folder.
Useful informations about CodeWarrior are here : "C:\Program Files\Freescale\CodeWarrior for ColdFire V7.1\Help\PDF"
I recommend MSL_C_Reference.pdf, Targeting_ColdFire.pdf, and the excellent ColdFire_Build_Tools_Reference.pdf (especially chapter 19 about runtime libraries)
