## Upcoming release: Castor
Overview of changes since TK TK1-24.03 for the Castor milestone so
far.
### General
- Split repo:
- tk1, mta1-usb-dev, mta-usb-v1 and mta1-library moves to
https://github.com/tillitis/tk1-pcba
- tp1, mta1-usb-programmer, mta1-library and KiCad-RP Pico moves to
https://github.com/tillitis/tp1
For full change log [see](https://github.com/tillitis/tillitis-key1/compare/TK1-23.03.2...coming-tag)
### FPGA
- Security Monitor memory access checks are now more complete.
- Add SPI main controller mainly to access flash.
- Add system reset API. Device apps can reset the system and restart
the firmware. The FPGA is not reset.
- Increase clock frequence to 24 MHz.
- Increase UART baudrate to 500,000.
- Fix missing clock cycles in timer core.
- Remove the UART runtime configuration API.
- Several clean ups and testbench changes.
- Make Verilator simulation work again.
- Add hardware clear to send (CTS) signals for communication between
UART and CH552.
### Firmware
- At startup, fill RAM with random data using the xorwow PRNG, seeded
by TRNG.
- Add support for the new USB Controller Protocol to communicate with
different endpoints.
### CH552
- Use the new CTS signals for communication over the UART.
- Add support for two HID endpoints.
- Add protocol to communicate with the three different endpoints: CDC,
HID, debug.
- Change USB frame sending from a software timer to instead be
controlled by the USB Controller Protocol.
### tkey-builder
- New versions of:
- clang (18.1.3, part of ubuntu 24.04)
- icestorm (commit 738af822905fdcf0466e9dd784b9ae4b0b34987f
)
- yosys (0.45)
- nextpnr (0.7) + extra patches for RNG seed handling and early exit
- iverilog (v12)
- verilator (v5.028)
- verible (v0.0-3795)
- cocotb (v1.9.1)
- Remove TKey Programmer (TP) toolchain:
- gcc-arm-none-eabi: Used for the TKey Programmer firmware, now
moved to it's own repo.
- libnewlib-arm-none-eabi
- libstdc++-arm-none-eabi-newlib
- pico-sdk
TP1 is now in https://github.com/tillitis/tp1
- Remove Go compiler support.
### Docs
- All docs now in READMEs close to the design or code.
- Protocol docs moved to [the Developer
Handbook](https://dev.tillitis.se/)
