Hi

 I am testing the ADC on the STM32L0 chip, and using the STM32Cube. The demonstration I have ticks the 'Debug Serial Wire' in the SYS folder. It is not explained to what this is, can anyone let me know what this actually is, and does?

Many Thanks

Scott

Hi,

Serial wire debug (SWD) facilitate the communication with your STM32 microcontroller located on an application board. So, it is a way to connect into the debug support within the chip.

You can refer to the reference manual and datasheet related to your device for more clarification about this topic.
