Hi

If you are doing a GPSDO, you probably are playing a lot with things like clock trees and PLL frequencies. There are other free toolchains (often vendor specific) that can make this *much* easier. Not all ARM’s are the same in terms of clocking, so it’s not a one size fits all sort of thing.

It’s actually been faster / easier to take the stuff we need over to another board and tool chain than to fight through all of the gotchas within the Arduino / ARM world. The stuff is free / easy just about any way you do it.
