.. zephyr:board:: nucleo_l011k4

Overview

The STM32 Nucleo-32 development board with STM32L011K4 MCU, supports Arduino Nano V3 connectivity.

The STM32 Nucleo board provides an affordable, and flexible way for users to try out new concepts, and build prototypes with the STM32 microcontroller, choosing from the various combinations of performance, power consumption, and features.

The Arduino* Nano V3 connectivity support allow easy functionality expansion of the STM32 Nucleo open development platform with a wide choice of specialized shields.

The STM32 Nucleo board integrates the ST-LINK/V2-1 debugger and programmer.

The STM32 Nucleo board comes with the STM32 comprehensive software HAL library together with various packaged software examples.

More information about the board can be found at the Nucleo L011K4 website_.

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.

Default Zephyr Peripheral Mapping:

UART_2 TX/RX : PA2/PA15 (ST-Link Virtual Port Com)
I2C1 SCL/SDA : PA4/PA10 (Arduino I2C)
SPI1 SCK/MISO/MOSI : PA5/PA6/PA7 (Arduino SPI)
LD2 : PB3

For more details please refer to STM32 Nucleo-32 board User Manual_.

Programming and Debugging

.. zephyr:board-supported-runners::

Nucleo L011K4 board includes an ST-LINK/V2-1 embedded debug tool interface.

Applications for the nucleo_l011k4 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 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 Nucleo L011K4

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

.. zephyr-app-commands:: :zephyr-app: samples/basic/blinky :board: nucleo_l011k4 :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:hello_world application.

.. zephyr-app-commands:: :zephyr-app: samples/hello_world :board: nucleo_l011k4 :maybe-skip-config: :goals: debug
