OVERVIEW
This user manual is aimed to give users a fast introduction to the use of ARM
®
mbed
™
and NuMaker-
PFM-NUC472 board.
Introduction to ARM
®
mbed
™
1.1
The ARM
®
mbed
™
IoT Device Platform provides the operating system, cloud services, tools and
developer ecosystem to make the creation and deployment of commercial, standards-based IoT
solutions possible.
The ARM
®
mbed
™
allows IoT devices to collaborate and communicate with each other on the basis of
transparency - otherwise each of the devices will not be able to talk to each other or to the cloud. For
more detailed information about ARM
®
mbed

Introduction to NuMaker-PFM-NUC472 Board
1.2
The NuMaker-PFM-NUC472 is a development board based on a Cortex
®
-M4 microcontroller (MCU)
–
NUC472 series which has very rich peripherals.
This board is provided by Nuvoton and created specially to support the ARM
®
mbed
™
IoT Device
Platform, and let user easily to develop the IoT application program on this board. The NuMaker-PFM-
NUC472 also provides user many useful and powerful learning materials for how to develop and verify
the application programs through the peripherals and interfaces on MCU and this board.
Furthermore, this board also provides an Arduino UNO compatible interface for user to develop the
specific function with any of Arduino modules or kits. Regarding to the Arduino, user can link directly to
the Wikipedia website:
to get more detailed introductions.
The NuMaker-PFM-NUC472 board consists of NUC472 Platform and Nu-Link-Me ICE Bridge. Figure
1-1 shows the NuMaker-PFM-NUC472 board.
