These controllers are responsible for pin muxing, input/output, pull-up, etc. Default Zephyr Peripheral Mapping: ---------------------------------- .. rst-class:: rst-columns - LPUART_1 TX/RX : PA3/PA2 (ST-Link Virtual Port Com) - I2C_2_SCL : PA12 (Arduino I2C) - I2C_2_SDA : PA11 (Arduino I2C) - SPI_1_NSS : PA4 (arduino_spi) - SPI_1_SCK : PA5 (arduino_spi) - SPI_1_MISO : PA6 (arduino_spi) - SPI_1_MOSI : PA7 (arduino_spi) - ADC1_IN5 : PB1 (Arduino pin A0) - DAC1_OUT1 : PA10 (Arduino pin A2) System Clock ------------ Nucleo WL55JC System Clock could be driven by internal or external oscillator, as well as main PLL clock. By default System clock is driven by HSE clock at 32MHz. Serial Port ----------- Nucleo WL55JC board has 2 (LP)U(S)ARTs. The Zephyr console output is assigned to LPUART_1. Default settings are 115200 8N1. Programming and Debugging ************************* Applications for the ``nucleo_wl55jc`` board configuration can be built the usual way (see :ref:`build_an_application`). Flashing ======== Nucleo WL55JC board includes an STLINK-V3 embedded debug tool interface. This interface is supported by the openocd version included in the Zephyr SDK since v0.11.0. You can also choose the ``stm32cubeprogrammer`` runner. Flashing an application to Nucleo WL55JC ---------------------------------------- Connect the Nucleo WL55JC to your host computer using the USB port. Then build and flash an application. Here is an example for the :ref:`hello_world` application. Run a serial host program to connect with your Nucleo board: .. code-block:: console $ minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 Then build and flash the application. .. zephyr-app-commands:: :zephyr-app: samples/hello_world :board: nucleo_wl55jc :goals: build flash You should see the following message on the console: .. code-block:: console Hello World! arm .. Note: Nucleo WL55JC board is provided with a stock firmware which demonstrates sleep mode. Unfortunately, default openocd configuration, which is debug compatible, doesn't allow flashing when SoC is in sleep mode. As a consequence, when flashing Nucleo WL55JC board over a stock firmware, please update board's openocd.cfg configuration file to select sleep mode compatible configuration. Debugging ========= You can debug an application in the usual way. Here is an example for the :zephyr:code-sample:`blinky` application. .. zephyr-app-commands:: :zephyr-app: samples/basic/blinky :board: nucleo_wl55jc :maybe-skip-config: :goals: debug .. _Nucleo WL55JC website: https://www.st.com/en/evaluation-tools/nucleo-wl55jc.html .. _STM32WL55JC on www.st.com: https://www.st.com/en/microcontrollers-microprocessors/stm32wl55jc.html .. _STM32WL55JC datasheet: https://www.st.com/resource/en/datasheet/stm32wl55jc.pdf .. _STM32WL55JC reference manual: https://www.st.com/resource/en/reference_manual/dm00451556-stm32wl5x-advanced-armbased-32bit-mcus-with-subghz-radio-solution-stmicroelectronics.pdf
