[Tutorial videos in STM32CubeMX] Your ideas are welcome

[Jeanne Joly]

Around 40 tutorial videos are accessible from STM32CubeMX in Help menu/Tutorial videos since STM32CubeMX 6.0.0 release.

All those videos intend to answer frequent STM32CubeMX users questions.

It deals with various subjects such as FreeRTOS, DMA, GPIO, Software packs, System view tips, Getting started with X-Cube BLE, pinout view tips…

Those videos will be available to China users in the next STM32CubeMX release (6.1.0).

If you think that some specific tips, features or complex subjects are not yet addressed with these tutorial videos, we will be glad to hear your valuable proposals.

Thanks to share your ideas with maximum of details.

No music please.

Yes, one can mute the videos, of course. Here's the problem: How do we know someone will start talking in the middle of the video while it is muted?

That aside, ST does a fantastic job of having tons of video material to help designers. I love it.

At this moment all STM32Cube_FW_WB_V1.11.0\Projects\P-NUCLEO-WB55.Nucleo\Applications\BLE\BLE_HealthThermometer\STM32CubeIDE is not fully compabiality with CubeMX. ST engineers use CubeMX for generate this projects and change a lot of. So this examples are blackbox.

Users need video tutorials how create BLE projects via CubeMX. For me the most interesting is BLE mesh projects: BLE_MeshLightingPRFNode, BLE_MeshLightingPRFNode, BLE_MeshLightingProvisioner.

I'd appreciate a step by step video that shows how to build a simple application from the bottom up that uses several peripherals that are typically used together (UARTs, USARTs, I2C, SPI, timer, SDMMC with FatFs). By bottom up, I mean starting with a new, empty STM32 project and adding the necessary .h and .c files into the project in a reasonably flat hierarchy. Here's an example of why this would be useful to non-master programmers like me. I have been able to get FatFs projects working when I start from the ST provided examples. But trying to figure out how that ST example works, like figuring out which SDMMC pins are being used, is exceptionally time consuming. And to make matters worse, integrating a working UART example into the working SDMMC/FatFS example breaks things that work fine in my stand alone examples.

[dungeonlords789]

FatFS tutorial is needest!

A video on how to protect IP on devices, in particular the cheaper variants such as STM32F0 and STMF32F1 rather than the STM32F4's

How to import your CubeMX project to Mbed.

[dungeonlords789]

Just use FreeRTOS. It is very userfriendly.

[LMI2]

Mbed users have written many libraries for various peripheral chips. Are there any for FreeRtos?

How to use SPI bus with MAX31865, PT100

How to use I2C bus with ADS1115, ADC

How to use I2C bus with DS3231, RTC

And other chips

[dungeonlords789]

DS3231? Is it a joke?

This is chip from 2005. Use RTC build-in stm32.

[LMI2]

I read some time ago that the RTC in STM32 was tricky to use. DS3231 is accurate and relatively easy to use. Besides, DS3231 is supported elsewhere, but not in STM32.

I would start by having the presenter not read the text from the PDF file. If the presenter is not explaining in better terms than the PDF then what is the point? I'm currently watching a video of someone reading the PDF.

More hands on videos with the stm32MP1, currently some of the startup material doesnt run smoothly or you have to make little changes to the commands etc etc.

otherwise really we're better off going to something like begalbone. if it's a pain in the **** to get started with it and support is waiting a few weeks to get a response i dont see a reason to learn the system.

[dungeonlords789]

stm32MP1 is very interesting! I am also interesting to find low-cost display with touch for stm32MP1. I need display 15" or more. Small example

Tutorials on Zigbee. A lot of the projects provided for Zigbee are black boxes. Would love to see an explanation on setting up a Zigbee project with FreeRTOS

[dungeonlords789]

BLE is the best. Zigbee less interesting, less devices support it.

See examples \STM32CubeIDE_1.1.0\Repository\STM32Cube_FW_WB_V1.11.1\Projects
