STM32F030R8 Board Setup

Hi everyone,

I’m working on a project involving the STM32F030R8 microcontroller, and I came across this custom board design:  

https://www.pcbway.com/project/shareproject/ARMando__STM32F030R8_board_.html 

Has anyone here used this specific board before, or can anyone provide insights on how to effectively get started with it in the STMduino environment? I'm especially interested in:

  • Setting up the toolchain for STM32F030R8 with STMduino

  • Troubleshooting any common issues that might arise during development

  • Suggestions for libraries or peripheral setups that would be helpful for this microcontroller

Any advice or shared experiences would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Doesn't it tell you that on the page you linked ?

My advice & experience is that you'd be better off starting with a genuine, supported manufacturer's board - such as the NUCLEO-F030R8:

Note that it comes complete with a built-in, genuine ST-Link.

There are ready-to-go examples in STM32CubeIDE.

 

That will give you the least friction to get started and learn the product and the tools.

You will then be equipped to move on to custom boards ...

 

A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked.
A complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be patched up to make it work.
