Overview

---

The Nucleo F412ZG board features an ARM Cortex-M4 based STM32F412ZG MCU with a wide range of connectivity support and configurations. Here are some highlights of the Nucleo F412ZG board:

• STM32 microcontroller in LQFP144 package

• Two types of extension resources:

  • ST Zio connector including: support for Arduino* Uno V3 connectivity (A0 to A5, D0 to D15) and additional signals exposing a wide range of peripherals
  • ST morpho extension pin headers for full access to all STM32 I/Os

• On-board ST-LINK/V2-1 debugger/programmer with SWD connector

• Flexible board power supply:

  • 5 V from ST-LINK/V2-1 USB VBUS
  • External power sources: 3.3 V and 7 - 12 V on ST Zio or ST morpho connectors, 5 V on ST morpho connector

• Three user LEDs

• Two push-buttons: USER and RESET

System Clock

Nucleo F412ZG System Clock could be driven by internal or external oscillator, as well as main PLL clock. By default System clock is driven by PLL clock at 96MHz, driven by 8MHz high speed external clock.

Serial Port

Nucleo F412ZG board has 4 UARTs. The Zephyr console output is assigned to UART3. Default settings are 115200 8N1.

Network interface

Ethernet over USB is configured as the default network interface

Programming and Debugging

---

.. zephyr:board-supported-runners::

Nucleo F412ZG board 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
