Peripherals Exercised

• Board_LED0 - Indicates that the board was initialized within main()

This examples is the same as the Empty_Minimal example except many development and debug features are enabled. For example:

• Logging is enabled
• Assert checking is enabled
• Kernel Idle task
• Stack overflow checking
• Default kernel heap is present
