DFU Serial Number

Rob.Riggs

I am looking at the code here that has the algorithm for producing the device serial number reported when the MCU is in USB DFU mode.

https://github.com/libopencm3/libopencm3/blob/master/lib/stm32/desig.c

The document they reference there, https://my.st.com/52d187b7, is now a dead link. Does anyone have the name of the document and its current location?

I think it is sufficient..

IIRC these ST serial numbers were documented in STM8 app.notes. They include date of producing the wafer and coordinates (X,Y) of the chip on the wafer. So each chip indeed has an unique id, if this scheme is actually applied in manufacturing process.

The question however is more about the 12-byte ASCII serial number generated by the DFU/USB peripheral.
