System Clock

STEVAL-STWINBX1 System Clock could be driven by an internal or external oscillator, as well as the main PLL clock. By default the System clock is driven by the PLL clock at 160MHz, driven by 16MHz high speed external oscillator. The internal AHB/APB1/APB2/APB3 AMBA buses are all clocked at 160MHz.

Serial Port

The USART2 is connected to JTAG/SWD connector and may be used as console.

USB interface

STEVAL-STWINBX1 can be connected as a USB device to a PC host through its USB-C connector. The final application may use it to declare STEVAL-STWINBX1 device as belonging to a certain standard or vendor class, e.g. a CDC, a mass storage or a composite device with both functions.

Console

There are two possible options for Zephyr console output:

  • through common CDC ACM UART backend configuration for all boards

  • through USART2 which is available on SWD connector (CN4). In this case a JTAG adapter can be used to connect STEVAL-STWINBX1 and have both SWD and console lines available.

    To enable console and shell over UART:

    • in your prj.conf, override the board's default configuration by setting :code:CONFIG_BOARD_SERIAL_BACKEND_CDC_ACM=n

    • add an overlay file named <board>.overlay:

.. code-block:: dts

/ { chosen { zephyr,console = &usart2; zephyr,shell-uart = &usart2; }; };

Console default settings are 115200 8N1.

Programming and Debugging

.. zephyr:board-supported-runners::

There are two alternative methods of flashing ST Sensortile.box Pro board:

  1. Using DFU software tools

    This method requires to enter STM32U585 ROM bootloader DFU mode by powering up (or reset) the board while keeping the USER (BOOT0) button pressed. No additional hardware is required except a USB-C cable. This method is fully supported by :ref:flash-debug-host-tools. You can read more about how to enable and use the ROM bootloader by checking the application note AN2606_ (STM32U585xx section).

  2. Using SWD hardware tools

    The STEVAL-STWINBX1 does not include a on-board debug probe. It requires to connect additional hardware, like a ST-LINK/V3 embedded debug tool, to the board STDC14 connector (CN4) labeled MCU-/SWD.

Install dfu-util

.. note:: Required only to use dfu-util runner.

It is recommended to use at least v0.9 of dfu-util. The package available in Debian and Ubuntu can be quite old, so you might have to build dfu-util from source. Information about how to get the source code and how to build it can be found at the DFU-UTIL website_

Install STM32CubeProgrammer

.. note:: Required to program over DFU (default) or SWD.

It is recommended to use the latest version of STM32CubeProgrammer_

Flash an Application to STEVAL-STWINBX1

There are two ways to enter DFU mode:

  1. USB-C cable not connected

    While pressing the USER button, connect the USB-C cable to the USB OTG STEVAL-STWINBX1 port and to your computer.

  2. USB-C cable connected

    While pressing the USER button, press the RESET button and release it.

With both methods, the board should be forced to enter DFU mode.

Check that the board is indeed in DFU mode:

.. code-block:: console

$ sudo dfu-util -l dfu-util 0.9

You should see the following confirmation on your Linux host:

.. code-block:: console

$ dmesg usb 3-1: new full-speed USB device number 16 using xhci_hcd usb 3-1: New USB device found, idVendor=0483, idProduct=df11, bcdDevice= 2.00 usb 3-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3 usb 3-1: Product: DFU in FS Mode usb 3-1: Manufacturer: STMicroelectronics usb 3-1: SerialNumber: 207136863530

You can build and flash the provided sample application (:zephyr:code-sample:stwinbx1_sensors) that reads sensors data and outputs values on the console.
