Overview


The STM32F0 Discovery development board uses an STM32F051R8T6 MCU and integrates the ST-LINK/V2-1 debugger and programmer. It also comes with a comprehensive STM32 software HAL library and various packaged software examples.

More information about the board can be found at the STM32F0DISCOVERY website_.

Hardware


The STM32 Discovery board features:

  • STM32F051R8T6 microcontroller featuring 64 KB Flash memory, 8 KB RAM in an LQFP64 package

  • On-board ST-LINK/V2 with selection mode switch to use the kit as a standalone ST-LINK/V2 (with SWD connector for programming and debugging)

  • Board power supply: through USB bus or from an external 5 V supply voltage

  • External application power supply: 3 V and 5 V

  • Four LEDs:

    • LD1 (red) for 3.3 V power on
    • LD2 (red/green) for USB communication
    • LD3 (green) for PC9 output
    • LD4 (blue) for PC8 output
  • Two push buttons (user and reset)

  • Extension header for all LQFP64 I/Os for quick connection to prototyping board and easy probing

  • An additional board is provided which can be connected to the extension connector for even easier prototyping and probing.

  • Comprehensive free software including a variety of examples, part of STM32CubeF0 package or STSW-STM32049 for legacy Standard Libraries usage

More information about STM32F051R8 can be found in the STM32F0x8 reference manual_.

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_1_TX : PA9
  • UART_1_RX : PA10
  • UART_2_TX : PA2
  • UART_2_RX : PA3

For more details please refer to STM32F0DISCOVERY board User Manual_.

Programming and Debugging


.. zephyr:board-supported-runners::

STM32F0DISCOVERY board includes an ST-LINK/V2-1 embedded debug tool interface.

Applications for the stm32f0_disco 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 F030R8

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

.. zephyr-app-commands:: :zephyr-app: samples/basic/blinky :board: stm32f0_disco :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.

.. zephyr-app-commands:: :zephyr-app: samples/basic/blinky :board: stm32f0_disco :maybe-skip-config: :goals: debug
