STM32L031 program does not run.

1:

I have developed a small program for the STM32L031 Nucleo-32 using the example UART_TwoBoards_ComIT. The program run on the STM32L031 Nucleo-32 develop-board. When I load* the program to our own HW it does not start, I have tried with and without the compiler directive USE_STM32L0XX_NUCLEO_32. I suspect the system clock generation, but can’t find where it is setup.

*I load the program using STM flash_loader_demo_v2.8.0.

2:

I want to use the ST-LINK V2 for debug should the data port be connected to PA13?

Do any have a hint or comments that could help me?

You would need to connect both SWDIO (PA13) and SWCLK (PA14), VCC and GND would also need connections to the ST-LINK. The connection of NRST would also be desirable.

Make sure BOOT0 pin is pulled low to execute your code.

Then use a debugger to understand what is happening, or GPIO/USART signalling

There is already a STLink V2-1 embeded on the 

STM32L031 Nucleo-32 (on the bottom side of the PCB) and it is already properly connected unless you (removed some 0 Ohms resistors).

Check

, you will get a lot of useful information

Emphasis mine, the OP is discussing two situations, a working Nucleo, and a non-working custom board needing connectivity to an ST-LINK to debug the situation.

The Nucleo will have an 8 MHz clock source feed from the onboard ST-LINK. This is likely not present on the custom board, so BYPASS mode won't work, and HSE must start succesfully. Settings in SystemInit() need review.

Hi Clive

I understand I can't use the SWIM connector, but what about TDO_SWO connection?
