ST Nucleo F410RB

Overview

The Nucleo F410RB board features an ARM Cortex-M4 based STM32F410RB MCU with a wide range of connectivity support and configurations. Here are some highlights of the Nucleo F410RB board:

  • STM32 microcontroller in QFP64 package

  • Two types of extension resources:

    • Arduino Uno V3 connectivity

    • ST morpho extension pin headers for full access to all STM32 I/Os

  • On-board ST-LINK/V2-1 debugger/programmer with SWD connector

  • Flexible board power supply:

    • USB VBUS or external source(3.3V, 5V, 7 - 12V)

    • Power management access point

  • Three LEDs: USB communication (LD1), user LED (LD2), power LED (LD3)

  • Two push-buttons: USER and RESET

System Clock

Nucleo F410RB System Clock could be driven by an internal or external oscillator, as well as the main PLL clock. By default, the System clock is driven by the PLL clock at 84MHz, driven by an 8MHz high-speed external clock.

Serial Port

Nucleo F410RB board has 3 USARTs. The Zephyr console output is assigned to UART2. Default settings are 115200 8N1.

Programming and Debugging

Applications for the nucleo_f410rb board configuration can be built and flashed in the usual way (see Building an Application and Run an Application for more details).

Flashing

Nucleo F410RB board includes an ST-LINK/V2-1 embedded debug tool interface. This interface is supported by the openocd version included in the Zephyr SDK.

Flashing an application to Nucleo F410RB

Here is an example for the Hello World application.

Run a serial host program to connect with your Nucleo board.

$ minicom -b 115200 -D /dev/ttyACM0

Build and flash the application:

# From the root of the zephyr repository
west build -b nucleo_f410rb samples/hello_world
west flash

You should see the following message on the console:

$ Hello World! arm

Debugging

You can debug an application in the usual way. Here is an example for the Hello World application.

# From the root of the zephyr repository
west build -b nucleo_f410rb samples/hello_world
west debug
