I am new for stm32F4 micro controller, I tried to send data through usart2 of the micro controller to USB serial port that. When I launch my Putty, it doesn't show any data. Can anyone help me out ?

[DextroLaev]

In PuTTy , I selected /dev/ttyACM0 and set baud_rate as 9600 which is same as of the micro controller.

[TDK]

Which board and which chip exactly?

Is USART2 hooked up to the serial port with the pins you selected?

[DextroLaev]

I am using stm32F407VG, its USART2 is connected with serial port st-link

[Tesla DeLorean]

Ok, that's a CHIP, what's the BOARD it is on?

The STM32F407G-DISCO/1 boards don't have physical connectivity to the ST-LINK

What PINS are you using, show how they are connected, show the code involved, it will be a lot easier than guessing or playing twenty questions.

The STM32 output CMOS levels, not RS232 ones.

The frequency of HSE needs to correctly reflect HSE_VALUE definition for the baud rate math to work

The STM32 USART TX Output pin needs to connect to a Receiving Input pin..

That's main.c and all default clock settings are used.

[Laurie1]

I got the same situation before. My solution is to config "Pinout & Configuration->System Core->RCC->High Speed CLock(HSE)" to "Crystal/Ceramic Resonator"(if there is a crystal on the board) , and config all the clock in the "Clock Configuration" to the top speed.

[Tesla DeLorean]

Should be running off HSI at 16 MHz. Should be able to function at 115,200 baud

Suggest scoping the USART2_TX pin (PA2 ??)

Scope PD12, is that toggling?

[DextroLaev]

If you are asking about USART2_TX , then yes PA2 is set for this purpose and yes PD12 is toggling.
