These tools allow us to use the STM32F412 platform without installing proprietary vendor-specific software or giving away our contact information. They are referenced in this repository as submodules from their respective homes on GitHub; that means you'll have a local copy on your system but updates will get pulled in from the maintained versions. In order for the submodules' content to pull in, run the following commands in the root folder after cloning this repo:

# Ring Test
This ring test uses PD5 and PD6. It's best to solder a loop of bare wire between the two pads, as they're next to each other on the Nucleo board and a loop allows easy hookup of an oscilloscope probe. I set the system clock to high-speed internal (HSI) running at 84 MHz, and used libopencm3's `gpio_get`, `gpio_set`, `and gpio_clear` to run the test:

1.97 MHz is good; I believe this could improve to 2.35 MHz if the HSI ran at the full rated STM32F412 speed of 100 MHz. libopencm3 doesn't have a built-in configuration function for this clock speed so this will take more investigation.

# USART benchmark
This test uses a pair of dev boards to test sending serial data packets between nodes. The Nucleo boards have a labeled USART port which corresponds to USART3; by default, this port is jumpered to the ST-LINK chip for mbed debugging. To avoid having to remove jumpers, we'll use USART1, available on PA15 (TX) and PB3 (RX). Per the Nucleo schematic, these are broken out on the top right black double-row header (CN7) as pin 9 (PA15) and pin 15 (PB3). These are labeled as the first I2S_B pin and the second SPI_B pin, respectively. Orient the boards back-to-front so the jumpers reach, as shown here:

Initial tests suggest that 5.25 Mbit/s works; this is likely limited by the 84 MHz clock rate, since the advertised maximum speed is 6.25 Mbit/s and (84/100) * 6.25 = 5.25. This waveform shows 0x55 (0b01010101) sent at this rate:
