Dryw Wade developed and integrated board support for multiple SparkFun devices within the zephyrproject-rtos/hal_rpi_pico repository, focusing on enabling out-of-the-box hardware compatibility for embedded systems. Over three months, Dryw implemented device tree configurations and hardware abstraction layers in C, supporting UART, LED, I2C, SPI, and flash memory across the SparkFun ThingPlus RP2350, IoT Node LoRaWAN, and XRP Controller platforms. This work included defining new board headers and pin mappings, as well as adding support for the CYW43 wireless chip. Dryw’s contributions streamlined device initialization and accelerated prototyping, demonstrating depth in BSP development and embedded systems integration.
March 2025: Delivered the SparkFun XRP Controller header and platform integration for the Zephyr hal_rpi_pico repository, enabling RP2350 compatibility and CYW43 wireless chip support. This work includes a new board header defining hardware configurations and pin assignments (UART, LED, I2C, SPI, and flash memory).
