Programming and Debugging


.. zephyr:board-supported-runners::

B_L4S5I_IOT01A Discovery kit includes an ST-LINK/V2-1 embedded debug tool interface.

Flashing

The board is configured to be flashed using west STM32CubeProgrammer_ runner, so its :ref:installation <stm32cubeprog-flash-host-tools> is required.

Alternatively, OpenOCD or JLink can also be used to flash the board using the --runner (or -r) option:

.. code-block:: console

$ west flash --runner openocd $ west flash --runner jlink

Flashing an application to B_L4S5I_IOT01A Discovery kit

Connect the B_L4S5I_IOT01A Discovery kit to your host computer using the USB port, then run a serial host program to connect with your Discovery board. For example:

.. code-block:: console

$ minicom -D /dev/ttyACM0

Then, build and flash 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: b_l4s5i_iot01a :goals: build flash

You should see the following message on the console:

.. code-block:: console

Hello World! arm

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: b_l4s5i_iot01a :maybe-skip-config: :goals: debug
