New to Stm32; what board do I have? How to program it.

[Bill92]

Hello I just purchased a STM32 board. Here is the link:

I ordered the Dual Channel version.

Here is an image:

How do I program and connect this to a PC?

More so, does this come with a debugger?

Any help is gladly appreciated.

  Thats not a STM board. It's something the Chinese whipped up that most likely does not have a legit STM32 micro on it. Documentation will be hard to come by for that board, and support will be minimal if any at all.

 No USB port so you will need some sort of programmer. ST-Link V2 or V3. Your options are order a clone from China which may or may not work OK or grab a legit ST-Link programmer that may or may not recognize what ever micro is on the board.

A better option would have been to grab a real STM Nucleo board from Mouser or Digikey starting at 11 bucks + shipping that has a ST-Link programmer built onto the Nucleo which can be snapped off for programming STM micro's that you buy in the future. 

What ever money you saved on the clone will cost you in documentation and support from STM and here.

Not what you want to hear I know, but......

Just my 2 cents worth
