Supported Features

.. zephyr:board-supported-hw::

Pin Mapping

STM32F723E Discovery kit has 7 GPIO controllers. These controllers are responsible for pin muxing, input/output, pull-up, etc.

For more details please refer to 32F723E-DISCO board User Manual_.

Default Zephyr Peripheral Mapping:

UART_2 TX/RX : PA2/PA3 (Arduino Serial)
UART_6 TX/RX : PC6/PC7 (ST-Link Virtual Port Com)
I2C1 SCL/SDA : PB8/PB9
I2C2 SCL/SDA : PH4/PH5 (Arduino I2C)
I2C3 SCL/SDA : PA8/PH8
SPI1 SCK/MISO/MOSI : PA5/PB4/PB5 (Arduino SPI)
LD1 : PA5
LD5 : PA7
LD6 : PB1
OTG_FS_DM : PA11
OTG_FS_DP : PA12

System Clock

The STM32F723E System Clock can be driven by an internal or external oscillator, as well as by the main PLL clock. By default, the System clock is driven by the PLL clock at 216MHz, driven by a 25MHz high speed external clock.

Serial Port

The STM32F723E Discovery kit has up to 8 UARTs. The Zephyr console output is assigned to UART6 which connected to the onboard ST-LINK/V2 Virtual COM port interface. Default communication settings are 115200 8N1.

Programming and Debugging

.. zephyr:board-supported-runners::

STM32F723E Discovery kit includes an ST-LINK/V2 embedded debug tool interface.

Applications for the stm32f723e_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 STM32F723E-DISCO

First, connect the STM32F723E Discovery kit to your host computer using the USB port to prepare it for flashing. Then build and flash your application.

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

.. zephyr-app-commands:: :zephyr-app: samples/hello_world :board: stm32f723e_disco :goals: build flash

Run a serial host program to connect with your board:

.. code-block:: console

$ minicom -D /dev/ttyACM0

You should see the following message on the console:

.. code-block:: console

Hello World! arm
