Is there a way to use uart on stm32f103c8t6 for VCP over debugging chip or is there

a flash limitation for debugger firmware ? For Nucleo411 there is VCP support via STM32F103CBT6 which has twice as much flash as the debug chip on the f3discovery.

Any Ideas ?

Kind Regards Jean

    Most DISCO boards don't support the VCP functionality.

    The new STM32F469I-DISCO also has an STM32F103CBT6 and supports both the mbed and VCP functionality.

    I've tried to burn f2_4.bin from 411nucleo into the STM32F3Discovery board. After burning f2_4.bin Windows started to install the VCP driver but afterwards debugging was not possible. So i burned f2_1.bin and my debugger was alive again. I guess it's faster to use another open source alternative.
