An Evaluation and Development Environment for an ARM7-Based Autopilot Using the Atmel SAM7S256 Microcontroller

Abstract

This report provides a detailed procedure for interfacing an Atmel SAM7S256 board with a Linux-based PC. The environment and interface are related to a new autopilot project that is designed around the ARM7 architecture used within the U.S. Army Research Laboratory's Vehicle Technology Directorate. An example project is also discussed as a means to see how the environment operates.
