Julien,

We are currently facing issues in documentation download which should be solved in the coming days.

Check :

In the meantime, find here the

A long term solution to avoid ponctual turbulences for online documentation download is to access the documents through the ST MCU Finder application where the complete STM32  documentation can be downloaded in 1 shot for immediate offline access.

Hope this helps

It would also help if the documents would not have 4+ name:

- the name of the downloaded file (DMxxxx.pdf, CDxxxxx.pdf), eventually prepended with a language designator like dm00314099.pdf

- the document tiltle on the cover : RM0433

- some readble title 'STM32H7x3 advanced ARM®-based 32-bit MCUs'

- Document ID: DocID029587 Rev 3

What's the deal with ''Tanks''? I see it very frequently outside UK/US circles.

I think the current naming is somewhat ingrained, so do not expect the document policy to change. I just rename them locally with a brief description and revision number.

I've brought up the naming before, and the ability to pull historical docs in several conversations. We tend to archive the data sheet and reference manuals associated with designs as a matter of course, so that design/coding decisions can be reviewed in the light of the documentation that was provided at the time they were made.

People at seminars have also described the numbering scheme as 'unhelpful'.

Indeed. And other vendors do have similar schemes - ST are not alone.

I have seen it brought up here before.

entation that was provided at the time they were made.

Likewise

Useful when 'inheriting' a project where the original team did not have the above foresight!

Well, if you were going to send anything in advance, I guess Tanks would be a pretty sure way to guarantee getting through ...

🙂

Seriously, I suspect it's phonetic - like the frequent 'replay' for 'reply'

At least it's better than text-speak!
