Hello,
I recently purchased STM32 F4VE trying to print text on SWV but noting shows at port 0, shared all the necessary information below.
Here's what i did :
- I am using generic st-linkv2 (version : 3.14.5) and STM32F407VET6 is in Normal mode (not DFU)
- Using STM32CubeIDE, I created a project by selecting the STM32F407VET6TR board.
- In the .ioc device configuration, I changed the clock to 84 MHz.
- In main.c, inside the int main -> while loop, I added a printf statement to print "Hello."
- In syscalls.c added required code for ITM.
- In the debugger configuration, I enabled SWV (84 MHz).
- Before starting debugging, I opened the SWV ITM Data Console, selected port 0 in the settings, and clicked on the red button to start.
- Nothing prints on ITM console.
Despite these steps, nothing prints on the ITM console. Could you please help me identify what might be going wrong?
Thanks in advance :smiling_face_with_smiling_eyes:
// syscalls.c
//Debug Exception and Monitor Control Register base address
#define DEMCR *((volatile uint32_t*) 0xE000EDFCU )
/* ITM register addresses */
#define ITM_STIMULUS_PORT0 *((volatile uint32_t*) 0xE0000000 )
#define ITM_TRACE_EN *((volatile uint32_t*) 0xE0000E00 )
void ITM_SendChar(uint8_t ch)
{
//Enable TRCENA
DEMCR |= ( 1 << 24);
//enable stimulus port 0
ITM_TRACE_EN |= ( 1 << 0);
// read FIFO status in bit [0]:
while(!(ITM_STIMULUS_PORT0 & 1));
//Write to ITM stimulus port0
ITM_STIMULUS_PORT0 = ch;

Hi @Tesla DeLorean thank you for the quick response,
I just debugged the problem with the PB3/SWO pin. It turns out that this ST-Link USB stick doesn't have an SWO pin to connect. I followed a YouTube tutorial on how to extract the SWO connection from the ST-Link and now the STM32f407VET6 able to use print the printf statements.
Here is a picture of my ST-Link with the SWO connection I made.
Hope this helps others facing the same issue.
