Hi there!

I'm developing a PCB with a STM32F429ZE. Now i want to integrate a ST-LINK/V2 debugger like on the Nucleos or on the Discovery boards. Is it possible to become the software for the ST-LINK/V2 microcontroller or could I anywhere buy an already programmed STM32F103? Thanks in advance for the answers! #stlink #st-link #stm32f4 #stm32

Hi linder.pascal,

You ought to buy an ST-Link in-circuit debugger /programmer that you find in this

Hi Hannibal

Thanks for your answer. But I think you didn't understand me. I want to integrate the ST-LINK/V2 on my PCB like on the Discovery boards. So I don't have to buy an in-circuit debugger/programmer. For this I need the firmware for the STM32F103.

They can be a bit dense at times... Like

chip A cursory search of the interwebs will get you the firmware image you are looking for.

Hi linder.pascal,

Indeed the ST-Link firmware is embedded in the ST-Link micro STM32F103 and it is a proprety of ST.  So, to use ST-Link for your PCB you should connect the ST-LINK/V2 in-circuit debugger which is designed around the STM32F103C8 device that embeds the ST-Link firmware. See the related User manual for further details
