@syedhashmiraza The stm32f429i-disc1 is not a microcontroller - it is a board which contains, among other things, a microcontroller.

The microcontroller is the stm32f429zi

In this case, this is the STM32F429I-DISC1 board:

And this is the stm32f429zi chip (a microcontroller) - mounted on the rear of the board:

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.

first, there is no board called stm32f29i-disc1 I supposed you are talking about stm32f429i-disc1. So please provide the correct board name.

second, as I said they are different disc1 termination means it’s a board : https://www.st.com/en/evaluation-tools/32f429idiscovery.html

while stm32f429zi is a microcontroller:

Hope that answers your question
