NXP Sensor SDK using Open-CMSIS-Pack

Proof of concept for NXP Sensor SDK using Open-CMSIS-Pack csolution - CMSIS Project Manager.

Demonstrates a scalable solution for sensor examples using multiple boards and shields.

Projects are using software layers with specified standard interfaces.

Source code has been taken from existing NXP SDKs, restructured (only some files have been slightly modified) and extended with CMSIS Project Manager YML files.

Repository top-level structure

Directory	Description
boards	Board layers for various evaluation boards
examples	ISSDK examples for various sensors
middleware	Middleware: FreeMASTER, ISSDK, SDMMC (not used)
shields	Shield layers for various Arduino sensor shields

Details about the repository contents and how it was derived from NXP SDKs is described in Contents.md.

ISSDK Sensor examples

IoT Sensing SDK (ISSDK) examples for various sensors are located in directory examples/issdk/sensors.

Projects are described with CMSIS Project Manager input files (YML format) and are using CMSIS software packs (Open-CMSIS-Pack format).

The projects consists of:

application with middleware
board software layer
shield software layer

Software Prerequisites

CMSIS-Toolbox 2.0.0 or later
Arm Compiler 6.18 or later
CMSIS packs required by examples
Packs can be installed by executing the following csolution and cpackget commands:
```
csolution list packs -s <sensor_example>.csolution.yml -m >packs.txt
cpackget add -f packs.txt
```

Building the examples

Go to directory examples/issdk/sensors/<sensor_name>
Use the csolution command to create .cprj project files for examples (all build and target types).
```
csolution convert -s <sensor_name>.csolution.yml
```
Go to sub-directory <sensor_example>
Use the cbuild command to create executable file for specified build and target type.
```
cbuild <sensor_project>.<build_type>+<target_type>.cprj
```
