Hi all,

I'm working with STM32F3DISCOVERY.I'm trying to map the system clk on a GPIO to view it with an oscilloscope.In the following datasheet 

http://www.st.com/st-web-ui/static/active/en/resource/technical/document/datasheet/DM00058181.pdf

 on page 39 I've found the signal  SWCLK-JTCK that should be the system clock, but I didn't find any information on this signal. Do you know this signal?Thanks and regards #stm32f3discovery #swclk-jtck

No that's a debugger clock.

To get system clocks, or fractions thereof, you need to look at MCO pins.

Thank you Clive very much.

BTW can you tell me where the purpose of

SWCLK-JTCK

 is indicated?Thanks and regards,

Like I said it's part of the debug interface, combining with SWDIO to provide a clock/data channel for the SWD interface, or part of a higher pin count JTAG interface.

It's use is optional, if you don't use the debugger they can be GPIO or other AF
