Raspberry Pi Showcases Rust On The RP2350 Microcontroller

While C tends to be the go-to launguage for microcontrollers, Raspberry Pi is promoting the prospects of using Rust on their RP2350 microcontroller.

Featured on the Raspberry Pi blog on Friday is a post by embedded developer Jonathan Pallant around his work on Rust programming for the RP2350 microcontroller.

Following successes with the Rust programming language on the earlier RP2040, Pallant and other developers have been working on embracing Rust for the RP2350 microcontroller. With using Rust code there has been success in leveraging the RP2350 for booting in both the Arm Secure and RISC-V modes, SPI / UART / I2C peripheral support, engaging the DMA engine, reading OTP with/without ECC, double-precision co-processor, GPIO interaction, and other features.

Those interested in the prospects of using the Rust programming language with the Raspberry Pi RP2350 microcontroller can learn more over on the Raspberry Pi blog.
