NUCLEO-144 STM32L4R5 : 1V8 powering & st-link

SimonF

Hello,

 

I'm trying to use this nucleo board with the camera DCMI interface. This camera has operation condition between 2V8 and 3V1.

Currently, I power the camera with a external source of 2.9V but the nucleo board is in 3V3.
Is there a solution to power the MCU (but still have the st-link working) to 3V or 2V8?

 

Thank you,

 

Simon

Use the CN7/VIN pin (external power-in) or VDD jumper pins to supply your custom voltage (e.g., 2.9V).

On most Nucleo boards, the ST-Link is isolated from the MCU power rail using a jumper called JP5 or a regulator enable jumper.

Remove JP5 (or similar) to disconnect the 3.3V regulator from the MCU side.

Then power the MCU side only through the 3V3 pin (which becomes an input when JP5 is removed) with your 2.9V supply.

ST-Link will still work over USB as long as it senses valid V<sub>DD</sub> on the MCU side.
