1.35 TrustZone Systick Periodic Timeout
This example application shows how to use the SysTick to generate periodic interrupts on both Secure and Non-secure modes.
Description
This demonstrates TrustZone feature and uses two projects viz., Secure and Non-Secure Project that work together on the same MCU and offering security isolation between the Trusted and the Non-trusted resources in the device.
- Secure project uses secure SysTick timer to generate periodic interrupt every 50ms to toggle a GPIO pin and an LED0
- Non-secure project uses non-secure SysTick timer to generate periodic interrupt every 100ms to toggle a GPIO pin and an LED1
Components Used
- Systick - Secure and non-secure systicks
- LED0 - Configured as secure mode
- LED1 - Configured as non-secure mode
- SECURE_PIN and NON_SECURE_PIN - Configured as secure and non-secure mode respectively

Setting Up PIC32CM SG00 Curiosity PRO board
- Connect the Debug USB port on the board to the computer using a micro USB cable
- Connect an oscilloscope/Logic analyzer to monitor the PORT pin PC00 (Pin #5 on EXT1)
- Connect an oscilloscope/Logic analyzer to monitor the PORT pin PC01 (Pin #6 on EXT1)
Running the Application
- Open the project group in the MPLAB X IDE and set the non-secure project as main project
- Build and program the application
- Observe the output for PIC32CM SG00 Curiosity Pro Board as
follows:
- LED0(Green) and PA20 (Secure pin) is toggled every ~50ms in secure project.
- LED1(Red) and PA18 (Non-secure pin) is toggled every ~100ms in non-secure project.
