Overview


MikroE Clicker 2 for STM32 is a development board containing an STM32F407_ microcontroller. It is equipped with two mikrobus sockets and furthermore has two headers for general signal break out. The board also has battery connection and a battery management unit on board. It can be powered either from a battery pack, such as a LiPo or from USB. The board is equipped with a 25MHz crystal as well as a 32.768kHz clock crystal.

Hardware


The Clicker 2 board contains the following connections:

  • Two MikroBUS connectors
  • Two headers with general connections

Furthermore the board contains two LEDs and two push buttons that are connected to the microcontroller.

Supported Features

.. zephyr:board-supported-hw::

Connections and IOs

The two mikroBUS interfaces are aliased in the device tree so that their peripherals can be accessed using mikrobus_N_INTERFACE so e.g. the spi on bus 2 can be found by the alias mikrobus_2_spi. The counting corresponds with the marking on the board.

For connections on the edge connectors, please refer to Clicker 2 for STM32 User Manual_.

Programming and Debugging


.. zephyr:board-supported-runners::

Applications for the mikroe_clicker_2 board configuration can be built and flashed in the usual way (see :ref:build_an_application and :ref:application_run for more details).

Flashing

The initial state of the board is set to lock. When you flash, it will fail with the message:

.. code-block:: console

Error: stm32x device protected

Unlocking with openocd makes it possible to flash.

.. code-block:: console

$ openocd -f /usr/share/openocd/scripts/interface/stlink-v2.cfg
-f /usr/share/openocd/scripts/target/stm32f4x.cfg -c init
-c "reset halt" -c "stm32f4x unlock 0" -c "reset run" -c shutdown

Here is an example for the :zephyr:code-sample:hello_world application.

.. zephyr-app-commands:: :zephyr-app: samples/hello_world :board: mikroe_clicker_2 :goals: build flash

You should see the following message on the console:

.. code-block:: console

Hello World! mikroe_clicker_2

Debugging

You can debug an application in the usual way. Here is an example for the :zephyr:code-sample:hello_world application.

.. zephyr-app-commands:: :zephyr-app: samples/hello_world :board: mikroe_clicker_2 :maybe-skip-config: :goals: debug
