mikroSDK Update – UART, SPI, and Pin Improvements – Added timeout mechanism for UART polling write across all architectures, optimized SPI register access for Toshiba (delivering a massive 90%+ memory reduction), and improved Renesas pin and register definitions. Minor fixes include added pins for Toshiba TMPM4 MCUs and corrected GPIO port number return types. On top of this, enjoy support for 192 new MCUs and 10 new board packages.
WHAT'S NEW?
- Introduced a timeout mechanism for UART polling write
- Prevents infinite blocking scenarios during UART communication.
- Enhances reliability across all supported architectures.
- Improved Renesas Pin and Register Definitions
- Added guards for all peripheral pins inside mcu_definitions.h files.
- Defined every used register base address in mcu_reg_addresses.h for cleaner, more maintainable code.
- Reduces risk of undefined pin usage and makes the configuration process more robust.
- Toshiba SPI Implementation Refinements
- Replaced direct struct member access (data register (DR), status register (SR), error register (ERR)) with offset-based register access macros.
- New macros
HAL_LL_SPI_DR,HAL_LL_SPI_SR,HAL_LL_SPI_ERRnow handle all low-level interactions. - Cuts memory usage by over 90% by removing 118 unused placeholder registers and shrinking the SPI base structure from 520 bytes down to just 48 bytes.
- Fixed Missing Toshiba TMPM4 Pins
- Updated mcu_definitions.h and pin_maps to include the previously missing pins.
- Added pin guards to prevent invalid peripheral configurations.
- Corrected GPIO Port Number Return Type
- Changed
hal_ll_gpio_get_port_numberreturn type fromuint32_ttouint8_tfor Renesas and Toshiba implementations. - The function now properly returns
0xFFto indicate an error instead of-1. - Minor fixes and stability improvements.

ABOUT mikroSDK
mikroSDK makes application code portable and reusable on many different platforms and architectures, with no code changes. It is a collection of open-source software libraries with unified API and software development tools. Once written, your code can seamlessly run on different microcontrollers, regardless of their architecture. Our mission is to make mikroSDK the universal SDK for all microcontrollers.
ABOUT NECTO
NECTO Studio is a lightning-fast, multi-architecture, multi-language IDE developed in C++ for Windows, macOS, and Linux. It integrates 12 compilers, supports 8 architectures, and covers thousands of microcontrollers, all unified under the NECTO SDK’s universal codebase. With daily-updated libraries, thousands of ready-to-use examples across hundreds of embedded topics, and a 24/7 remote board farm powered by CODEGRIP — the world’s first Wi-Fi debugger — developers dramatically reduce prototyping time. NECTO's built-in AI code assistant smartly merges multiple codebases, while the Smart Cloud brings real-time data visualization to your desk with a single line of code. And with intuitive smart setup steps guiding you from start to finish, ideal coding isn’t just a concept — it’s your new reality.
ABOUT MIKROE
MIKROE is committed to changing the embedded electronics industry through the use of time-saving
industry-standard hardware and software solutions. With unique concepts like Remote Access, One New Product/Day,
Multi-Architectural IDE and most recently, the EmbeddedWiki™
platform with more than million ready-for-use projects, MIKROE combines its dev boards, compilers, smart
displays, programmers/debuggers and 1800+ Click peripheral boards to dramatically cut development time. mikroBUS™; mikroSDK™; SiBRAIN™ and DISCON™ are open standards and mikroBUS only has been adopted
by over 100 leading microcontroller companies and integrated on their development boards.
