Question

I have designed a custom stm32f407vgt6 board with on board stlink, similar to stm32discovery board. But the st-link after assembling, the st link is not being detected by any application. Please let me know how to solve the issue.

I have tested all 3v connections going into the st-link chip, but the bi-color led is not blinking when it is connected via USB. Please help.

    Has it got firmware on it, and is it running?

    So you'll either need to use the System Loader, or another JTAG/SWD pod to get the firmware onto the STM32F1 chip.

    The connectivity modes of the System Loader are described in app note AN2606

    Then you'd need an actual firmware.

    Thank you so much for your help.

    So, I need to put a program to the STM32F103CBT6TR chip to act as an st-link for my stm32f4vgt6 chip, is that correct?

    If so, then I need to generate a set of SWDIO, SWCLK, GND, and 3.3V to feed into STM32F103CBT6TR chip via another already programmed st-link v2.

    Did I understand correctly?
