LED Blinking Using Bare-Metal Register-Level Programming on STM32H-series.

Hi everyone,

I’ve been experimenting with bare-metal programming on my STM32H-series MCU and wrote a simple C program to blink the on-board LEDs without using HAL or any libraries. It was a good exercise to understand how peripheral registers actually work under the hood.

Here’s what I’ve done so far

Enabled the RCC clock for GPIO ports B, C, and E

Configured GPIOB pins 14 and 0, and GPIOE pin 1 as outputs

Set the output type to push-pull

Defined the output speed directly through register access

I’m now looking to take this a step further. how can I optimize the code or make it more bare-metal in terms of structure and efficiency? Id love to hear how others handle low-level register operations or organize code in professional embedded projects.

Any pointers or examples…
