0693W00000Bb9lnQAB.pngHi everyone,

I found this board in the internet and the seller said that this is a new revision of the STM32F4DISCOVERY board. Is it true or not ?

Thank you all.

New versions of several boards are blue, WaveShare is also an OEM manufacturer, as I understand the situation.

You colleague should focus on the issue, unlikely to be with the fact the board is blue. Double check if newer components have been used for some of the sensor parts, and if appropriate defines are set in the build to deal with specific board revs where differences may be present. Check README.TXT files in current CubeF4 example projects.

Hello @DTran.3​ and welcome to the Community :)

The new order code is STM32F407G-DISC1 Discovery kit with STM32F407VG MCU (replaces STM32F4DISCOVERY kit).

Hi Imen,

I just want to now if the blue board is genuine or it's a re-make version of the STM32F407G-DISC1. My colleague now is confusing with a problem with a blue board, so if the board is not genuine I think that it's the main reason of his problem.

Thank you.

TRUE, there are some NEW revisions of the F407, F429 and F746 DISCO boards which are definitely BLUE
