Before installing and using the product, accept the Evaluation Product License Agreement from the www.st.com/stm32l0-discovery webpage.
Hardware layout UM1775 Hardware layout The STM32L053 Discovery board is designed around the STM32L053C8T6 microcontroller in a 48-pin LQFP package. Figure 2 illustrates the connections between the STM32L053C8T6 and its peripherals (ST- LINK/V2-1, linear touch sensor, touchkeys, I current measurement, 2.13” E-paper display, NFC connector for PLUG-CR95HF-B board, LEDs, push-buttons and an USB Mini- B connector).
Windows 10, is available from www.st.com. In cases where the STM32L053 Discovery board is connected to the PC before the driver is installed, some STM32L053 Discovery board interfaces might be declared as “Unknown” in the PC device manager. In this case, the user must install the dedicated driver files and...
ST-LINK/V2-1 firmware upgrade ST-LINK/V2-1 embeds a firmware upgrade mechanism for in-situ upgrade through the USB port. As the firmware may evolve during the life time of the ST-LINK/V2-1 product (for example new functionalities, bug fixes, support for new microcontroller families), visiting the www.st.com...
To program the STM32L053C8T6 on board, simply plug in the two jumpers on CN4, as shown in Figure 6 in pink, but do not use the CN5 connector as that could disturb the communication with the STM32L053C8T6 of the STM32L053 Discovery board. Figure 6. STM32L053 Discovery board connections UM1775 Rev 4 15/39...
6.1.5 Using ST-LINK/V2-1 to program/debug an external STM32 application It is very easy to use ST-LINK/V2-1 to program an STM32 microcontroller on an external application. Simply remove the two jumpers from CN4 as shown in Figure 7 and connect the...
The power supply is provided either by the host PC through the USB cable, or by an external 5 V power supply. The STM32L053 Discovery board requires 300 mA from the host PC: about 90 mA are needed by a simple E-paper demo application, 100 mA for an extension board, and 100 mA as a safety margin.
5 V can also be used as input power supply, for instance when the USB connector is not connected to the PC (pin 5V_I of header P3). In this case, the STM32L053 Discovery board must be powered by a power supply unit or by an auxiliary equipment complying with standard EN-60950-1: 2006+A11/2009. It must be Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) with limited power capability.
The external power source 5V_IN or USB USER CN3 is automatically detected. In this case the current consumption of the STM32L053 Discovery board and its extension board may exceed the allowed current on the USB. In this condition it is still possible to use the USB for communication, for programming or debugging only, but it is mandatory to power supply the board first using 5V_IN or USB USER CN3 then connecting the USB cable to the PC.
A NFC (Near Field Communication) transceiver board can be connected to the STM32L053 Discovery board, for example the PLUG-CR95HF-B board. The NFC board is plugged in connector CN1 of STM32L053 Discovery board as following: Figure 8. NFC board plugged on the STM32L053 Discovery board...
Main power supply/power supply for RF drivers Ground Electronic paper display (EPD) The STM32L053 Discovery board includes an E-paper display with high contrast, high reflectance and ultra-wide viewing angle. This display is a TFT active matrix electrophoretic display. The 2.13" active area contains 122×250 pixels and it is capable to display images at 1-bit white, black full display...
6 mA while connecting pin P2.6 (BOOT0) and P2.5 (VDD) with a jumper or a wire. Linear touch sensor / touchkeys To demonstrate touch sensing capabilities, the STM32L053 Discovery board includes a linear touch sensor, which can be used either as a three-position linear touch sensor or as four touchkeys.
The STM32L053C8T6 MCU is also used to drive the second USB Mini-B connector (USB USER), which allows the use of the board as a USB Device. The STM32L053 Discovery board can then act as a USB joystick, mouse, or other similar device. If both USBs are...
