Getting started with software and firmware environments for the
STM32F0DISCOVERY
kit
Introduction
This document describes the software, firmware environment and development
recommendations required to build an application around the STM32F0DISCOVERY board.
It presents the firmware applications package provided within this board with details on its
architecture and contents. It provides guidelines to novice users on how to build and run a
sample application and allows them to create and build their own application.
This document is structured as follows:
■ System requirements to use this board and how to run the built-in demonstration are
provided in Section 1: Getting started.
■ Section 2 describes the firmware applications package.
■ Section 4 presents development toolchain installation and overview of ST-LINK/V2
interface.
■ Section 5, Section 6, Section 7, and Section 8 introduce how to use the following software
development toolchains:
– IAR Embedded Workbench® for ARM (EWARM) by IAR Systems
– Microcontroller Development Kit for ARM (MDK-ARM) by Keil™
– TrueSTUDIO® by Atollic
– TASKING VX-toolset for ARM Cortex by Altium
Although this user manual cannot cover all the topics relevant to software development
environments, it demonstrates the first basic steps necessary to get started with the
compilers/debuggers.
Table 1 lists the microcontrollers and development tools concerned by this application note.
