Template: STLINK-V3MINIE Spec
From Waveshare Wiki
Overview
- STLINK-V3MINIE is a stand-alone debugging and programming tiny probe for STM32 microcontrollers.
- The JTAG/SWD interfaces are used to communicate with any STM32 microcontroller located on an application board.
- STLINK-V3MINIE also provides a Virtual COM port interface for the host PC to communicate with the target microcontroller through one UART.
- STLINK-V3MINIE is a portable version easy‑to‑use debugger and programmer including STDC14 interface with its flat cable and onboard pads for board‑to‑board (BTB) card edge connector.
- Supports all STM32 series microcontrollers with JTAG/SWD interface.
Firmware Selection
- STLINK-V3MINIE Types: "STM32 Debug +VCP" and "STM32 Debug + Mass storage + VCP".
Device Connection
Connect STLINK-V3MINIE to PC
- STLINK-V3MINIE uses a USB interface to connect to a PC, and the driver is automatically installed by a toolset that supports ST-LINK. After connecting to the computer, the following driver will appear in the device manager, and a mass storage disk will appear when the computer is turned on.
- There may be some computer drivers that are not successfully installed, as shown in the figure below, you need to install the drivers by yourself. Click here to install.
- Right-click ST-Link Debug, ST-Link VCP Ctrl to update the driver.
JTAG/SWD Interface to Connect STM32 Target Board
- The STLINK-V3MINIE downloader is connected to the STM32 target board using the JTAG/SWD interface through the adapter board.
STLINK-V3MINIE does not provide any power supply to the target application.
Software Connection
Use Keil to Program
- Connect the downloader to STM32 target board, power on the board, and you can read the information of the target board after connecting.
- Click "Download" to download the program.
STM32CubeProgrammer Example
- Open STM32CubeProgrammer, and you can use ST-LINK or UART to program.
- How to program: Choose Erasing & Programming->Choose "hex" in "File programming"->Click to Connect the board->Press "Start Programming" to program the "hex" file.
