Question

Hello, I would like to update my board firmware using bootloader CAN. Could the STLINK-V3 allow me to flash my board using bootloader CAN ? otherwise, which kind of board should I use as a host PC ?

Actually I did not purchase one yet. I know I have to choose one with a bootloader CAN include like a STM32F412.

Is there a GUI who allow a drag & drop to flash the board, using CAN ?

I saw that STM32CubeProgrammer should be update to allow to flash the board using bootloader CAN but I don't know when.

If you have any other advice, it will be appreciated.

Regards,

Zephyr

    The Cube programmer offers CAN as a Mode for the ST-LINK connectivity.

    As the creator of a CAN product why would you not have the ability to build both ends of the connection to implement your own tools?

    Hello Clive,

    First, thanks for your answer.

    My goal is to save time. Why couldn't I use fonctions that are implemented by ST ? like the bootloader and their soft ? They're here for that.

    Then, I don't understand. If I use the CAN mode with a ST-LINK V3, I could flash my board through bootloader CAN using the "start programming" button, couldn't I ?
