UART Bootloader for STM32F412VGTx

As mentioned in the AN2606 document for STM32F412VGTx MCU(Custom chip), I am using USART2 (PD6/PD5) for UART bootloader using STM32CubeProgrammer. But I am getting an error message as attached. Help me to resolve this issue.

STM32F412VGTx is not a custom chip.

Did you mean STM32F412VGTx on a custom board ?

If so, you need to give details of that board:

So have you checked those things?

One of these is likely wrong:

  • Ensure power rails are all connected correctly. All pins.
  • Ensure VCAP voltage is 1.2 V
  • Hold BOOT0 high during reset to boot into the bootloader.
  • Ensure wiring is correct.

If so, is it a known-good commercial product, or your own design?

Have you checked the design against Application note AN4488, "Getting started with STM32F4xxxx MCU hardware development" ?

Has this board ever worked ?

Any signals on PA10 or PB11 that might be recognized as initial contact?

You only get one-shot at reset to make a connection, if that fails you must with BOOT=HIGH to try again.

Present schematic for what you've implemented, saves everyone have to guess at causes..
