Supported Features

.. zephyr:board-supported-hw::

Connections and IOs

Each of the GPIO pins can be configured by software as output (push-pull or open-drain), as input (with or without pull-up or pull-down), or as peripheral alternate function. Most of the GPIO pins are shared with digital or analog alternate functions. All GPIOs are high current capable except for analog inputs.

System Clock

The on-board 8MHz crystal is used to produce a 72MHz system clock with PLL.

Programming and Debugging

.. zephyr:board-supported-runners::

Applications for the stm32f103_mini board configuration can be built and flashed in the usual way (see :ref:build_an_application and :ref:application_run for more details).

Flashing

There are 2 main entry points for flashing STM32F1X SoCs, one using the ROM bootloader, and another by using the SWD debug port (which requires additional hardware such as ST-Link). Flashing using the ROM bootloader requires a special activation pattern, which can be triggered by using the BOOT0 pin.

Flashing an application to stm32f103 mini

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

.. zephyr-app-commands:: :zephyr-app: samples/basic/blinky :board: stm32f103_mini :goals: build flash

You will see the LED blinking every second.

Debugging

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