Cannot connect to STM32G0B1 custom board

[degaus]

Hello everyone,

I have designed a custom board with the STM32G0B1CET6N but I cannot connect to the nucleo st-link programmer.

I have removed the two jumpers from the nucleo board but when connecting to the board it doesn't get recognised by the ST-Link Utility or STM32Programmer.

I do get an issue with the driver on the Device Manager but when I connect it to another custom board it works fine.

Below is the schematic for my custom board.

Any help is really appreciated.

VDDIO2 and VSS on your must be connected too.

Hello MM..1,

Thank you for your prompt reply!

Yes, I did noticed that mistake and I have put a temporary cable with the decoupling capacitors. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to work still. I will check that connection again in case there is a bad soldering.

Please do yourself a favor. Get a new (and cheap)  ST-LINKv3 instead of hacking a nucleo.

If it fails so bad the ST-LINK drivers can't find it, you'd need to look at the circuit, for shorts, powering issues, etc.

Check part / connector orientations.

Hi Pavel,

Thank you for your reply, I am not actually hacking a nucleo, I am only using the built in st-link to try to program my custom board. I have actually a ST-LinkV3, but I have the same issue.

I am trying to understand what else I am missing, on top of the two connections that MM..1 has nicely pointed out.

A normal ST-Link at least won't have issues with USB connection to host.

Set jumpers back and test link. If work Then show what you disconnect ...

Hi MM..1,

Thanks for the reply.

The link is working as normal with jumpers on, also it is working fine with jumpers off on another custom board (L010 chip). I have attached the picture with the jumpers off. I think I need to get a new board done with the VDDIO2 and VSS connected properly as the flying wire maybe are not connected properly. The board was factory assembled so I assume that is right.

BTW....I am new on STM32 so forgive me for silly mistakes.

For normal use you require three pins connected GND SWCLK SWDIO and on your image GND isnt connected
plus custom board power ...
