STM32L452CE CubeIDE default settings causes HardFault when setting flash latency

Hi,

I have created a project using CubeIDE 1.14.0 for the STM32L452CE. Inside the IOC editor, I changed the following things:

  • SYS => Debug set to Serial Wire
  • Project Manager => Advanced Settings => Set both RCC and GPIO to use LL instead of HAL

I then generated the code and fixed the broken linker script as outlined here: https://community.st.com/t5/stm32cubeide-mcus/stm32l452ce-cubeide-linker-script-causes-hardfault-inside-reset/m-p/651426#M25207

When I build and flash the code, I get a hardfault when executing the line:

 

LL_FLASH_SetLatency(LL_FLASH_LATENCY_0);

 

The full code is below, but it is just the default code that is generated...

I ended up resolving this today - I lifted and replaced the chip with a new one, and it worked first time. So I'm going to put this one down to the ESD boogeyman I suppose. All of the flash latency modes were failing on the old one.

So set to using HAL only - and try.

  • Set both RCC and GPIO to use LL instead of HAL

Why this ??

Is there something wrong with using the LL API?

IF not working...seems so. 

I try at first, to get something running , as it should. And HAL usually making this on the shortest time.

Playing around or improve speed is next - not first step. (Just my point of view - ymmv.)
