System Clock

OLIMEX-STM32-E407 has two external oscillators. The frequency of the slow clock is 32.768 kHz. The frequency of the main clock is 12 MHz. The processor can setup HSE to drive the master clock, which can be set as high as 168 MHz.

Programming and Debugging

The OLIMEX-STM32-E407 board does not include an embedded debug tool interface. You will need to use ST tools or an external JTAG probe. In the following examples a ST-Link V2 USB dongle is used.

If you have an external JTAG probe compliant with the default Zephyr OpenOCD configuration, however, then applications for the olimex_stm32_e407 board configuration can be built and flashed in the usual way (see Build an Application and Run an Application for more details).

Flashing an application to the Olimex-STM32-E407

Connect the ST-Link USB dongle to your host computer and to the JTAG port of the OLIMEX-STM32-E407 board. Then build and flash an application.

Here is an example for the Hello World application.

# On Linux/macOS
cd $ZEPHYR_BASE/samples/hello_world
mkdir build && cd build

# On Windows
cd %ZEPHYR_BASE%\samples\hello_world
mkdir build & cd build

# Use cmake to configure a Ninja-based build system:
cmake -GNinja -DBOARD=olimex_stm32_e407 ..

# Now run ninja on the generated build system:
ninja
ninja flash

Run a serial host program to connect with your board:

$ minicom -D /dev/ttyACM0

After resetting the board, you should see the following message:

***** BOOTING ZEPHYR OS v1.8.99 - BUILD: May 29 2017 22:31:53 *****
Hello World! arm

Debugging

Provided that you have a JTAG probe, you can debug an application in the usual way. Here is an example for the Hello World application.

# On Linux/macOS
cd $ZEPHYR_BASE/samples/hello_world
# If you already made a build directory (build) and ran cmake, just 'cd build' instead.
mkdir build && cd build

# On Windows
cd %ZEPHYR_BASE%\samples\hello_world
# If you already made a build directory (build) and ran cmake, just 'cd build' instead.
mkdir build & cd build

# Use cmake to configure a Ninja-based build system:
cmake -GNinja -DBOARD=olimex_stm32_e407 ..

# Now run ninja on the generated build system:
ninja debug
