The STM32F3DISCOVERY Discovery kit is a valuable tool for developers and engineers who are looking to explore the features and capabilities of the STM32F3 series microcontrollers by STMicroelectronics. This kit allows for a wide range of applications, including motor drive and application control, thanks to its high-performance ARM Cortex-M4 32-bit RISC core operating at a frequency of up to 72 MHz.
This development board is designed to provide an affordable and flexible way for users to try out new concepts and build prototypes with the STM32F303VCT6 microcontroller, which combines the high performance of the ARM Cortex-M4 core with a rich set of peripherals and the FPU (Floating Point Unit).
Key Features:
- STM32F303VCT6 microcontroller featuring 256 KB Flash, 48 KB RAM in an LQFP100 package
- On-board ST-LINK/V2 for PCB version A or B or ST-LINK/V2-B for PCB version C and newer, to provide debugging and programming capabilities
- Board power supply through USB bus or from an external 3 V or 5 V supply voltage
- Extension header for all LQFP100 I/Os for quick connection to prototyping board and easy probing
- An array of LEDs and push-buttons for user interaction and feedback
- Integrated linear accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetic field sensor for complete motion detection
- Several demonstration software packages available, including a variety of examples and preconfigured projects
With its embedded ST-LINK/V2 debugger/programmer, there is no need for an external probe, making it exceptionally easy to get started with programming and debugging. The extensive range of integrated peripherals, including various timers, ADC, DAC, and more, make it suitable for a host of different applications.
The STM32F3DISCOVERY board also supports further expansion with other specialized add-on boards to make it even more versatile for specific applications. With the comprehensive development ecosystem of STMicroelectronics' software tools and the supportive online community, the STM32F3DISCOVERY kit is an excellent starting point for exploring the capabilities of STM32 microcontrollers.
