This a template repository for implementing your own SimpleSerial V2 algorithms for execution on ChipWhisperer target boards. It comes with an example C file for our target executed binary and with an example Python 3 file to do our ChipWhisperer traces. The Python3 code is currently only suited for the STM32F targets, but this could easily be adjusted.

More info on the SimpleSerial V2 protocol can be found here.

More info on the ChipWhisperer framework can be found here.

Note: when using this repository remember to pull in the submodule with git submodule update --init.

One can adjust the main.c as one sees fit to implement their own algorithm. Setting one of the platforms specified in the PLATFORMS.md in the makefile will create the output files for that specified platform. By default it is set to the CWLITEARM.

Note: It is expected that both the toolchain for compiling is properly installed. For the ARM products this consists of the arm-none-eabi-gcc toolchain and the ARM standard library.

To run the Python 3 capturing code, we first need the newest version of the ChipWhisperer python library. Then we can run python3 capture_trace.py in the root directory.

It is possible to use make debugging to make debug-target executable with which you can do some rough debugging. You can also check the DEBUGGING constant if you want to add some conditional statement for debugging. For example:

#ifdef DEBUGGING
printf("I was here in debugging mode!\n");
#endif

If there are any issues or you can add a tested capture example for a different platform, you can submit an issue or pull request.
