The definitive guide to programming on C.H.I.P.

I've been working in the software business for over 30 years but until recently, hadn't been playing directly with Micro Processors. When I bought a Raspberry Pi and then an Arduino, I'm afraid I got hooked. In my house I am surrounded by computers of all shapes, sizes and capacities ... any one of them with orders of magnitude more power than any of these small devices ... however, I still found myself fascinated.

As the number of available single board computers continues to grow, CHIP caught my attention. As one of the cheapest on the marketplace yet remaining full featured ... I had to take a look ... and I liked what I found.

In May 2015, a small company called Next Thing Co launched a Kickstarter project for a new MCU module which they called C.H.I.P. (which in this book I just call CHIP). The goal was to produce a credit-card sized Linux computer for $9. Their initial ask was $50,000 to get the project going. They received $2,071,927!!! The central processing unit (CPU) of the CHIP is a 1GHz Allwinner R8 processor. There is an on-board 512MB of RAM and 4GBytes of flash to hold programs. From a communications perspective, CHIP supports both WiFi and Bluetooth 4.0. Video output is supplied in the form of composite video and hence can be plugged directly into a TV or monitor that accepts that input form. The operating system running on CHIP is based on the Linux Debian distribution.

As I studied the devices, I started to make notes and my pages of notes continued to grow and grow.

This book is my collated and polished version of those notes. Rather than keep them to myself, I offer them to all of us in the CHIP community in the hope that they will be of some value. My plan is to continue to update this work as we all learn more and share what we find in the community forums. As such, I will re-release the work at regular intervals so please check back at the book's home page for the latest. I do not plan on ever calling this book "finished" as there will always be more to add. Because of the breadth and depth of material that we want to cover, it is unlikely that you will want to read the book linearly from cover to cover. Instead, I recommend that you familiarize yourself with the table of contents and come back to it as and when you need information.
