System Clock
------------
STM32N6570_DK System Clock could be driven by internal or external oscillator,
as well as main PLL clock. By default System clock is driven by PLL clock at
400MHz, driven by 64MHz high speed internal oscillator.
Serial Port
-----------
STM32N6570_DK board has 10 U(S)ARTs. The Zephyr console output is assigned to
USART1. Default settings are 115200 8N1.
Board variants
**************
Three variants are available with STM32N6570_DK:
- Default variant. Available as a chainloaded application which should be loaded by a
bootloader, it has access to the whole AXISRAM1 and AXISRAM2 regions. It is expected to
be built using ``--sysbuild`` option exclusively.
- ``fsbl``: First Stage Boot Loader (FSBL) which is available as an application loaded by the
Boot ROM and flashed using ST-Link. This is typically a bootloader image. It runs
in RAM LOAD mode on second half of AXISRAM2. 511K are available for the whole image.
- ``sb``: First Stage Boot Loader - Serial Boot. Equivalent to the FSBL image, but could be
loaded using USB and doesn't require switching the bootpins. This is the most practical
for developments steps.
Programming and Debugging
*************************
.. zephyr:board-supported-runners::
STM32N6570_DK board includes an ST-LINK/V3 embedded debug tool interface.
This probe allows to flash and debug the board using various tools.
Flashing or loading
===================
The board is configured to be programmed using west `STM32CubeProgrammer`_ runner,
so its :ref:`installation <stm32cubeprog-flash-host-tools>` is needed.
Version 2.18.0 or later of `STM32CubeProgrammer`_ is required.
.. note::
Firmware is run in secure mode of execution, which requires a signature.
After build, the build system will automatically generate a signed version of the
binary using `STM32CubeProgrammer`_ utility ``STM32_SigningTool_CLI``.
This utility is installed along with `STM32CubeProgrammer`_, but make sure it is
available in your ``PATH`` variable.
To program the board, there are two options:
- Program the firmware in external flash. At boot, it will then be loaded on RAM
and executed from there.
- Optionally, it can also be taken advantage from the serial boot interface provided
by the boot ROM. In that case, firmware is directly loaded in RAM and executed from
there. It is not retained.
Programming an application to STM32N6570_DK
-------------------------------------------
Here is an example to build and run :zephyr:code-sample:`hello_world` application.
First, connect the STM32N6570_DK to your host computer using the ST-Link USB port.
.. tabs::
.. group-tab:: Application image
Build and flash an application loaded by MCUBoot.
.. zephyr-app-commands::
:zephyr-app: samples/hello_world
:board: stm32n6570_dk
:west-args: --sysbuild
:goals: build flash
By default, application runs in XIP mode. Add ``-DSB_CONFIG_MCUBOOT_MODE_RAM_LOAD=y``
to use RAMLOAD mode.
.. group-tab:: FSBL - ST-Link
Build and flash an application using ``stm32n6570_dk/stm32n657xx/fsbl`` target.
.. zephyr-app-commands::
:zephyr-app: samples/hello_world
:board: stm32n6570_dk//fsbl
:goals: build flash
.. note::
For flashing, before powering the board, set the boot pins in the following configuration:
* BOOT0: 0
* BOOT1: 1
After flashing, to run the application, set the boot pins in the following configuration:
* BOOT1: 0
Power off and on the board again.
.. group-tab:: FSBL - Serial Boot Loader (USB)
Additionally, connect the STM32N6570_DK to your host computer using the USB port.
In this configuration, ST-Link is used to power the board and for serial communication
over the Virtual COM Port.
.. note::
Before powering the board, set the boot pins in the following configuration:
* BOOT0: 1
* BOOT1: 0
Build and load an application using ``stm32n6570_dk/stm32n657xx/sb`` target (you
can also use the shortened form: ``stm32n6570_dk//sb``)
.. zephyr-app-commands::
:zephyr-app: samples/hello_world
:board: stm32n6570_dk//sb
:goals: build flash
Run a serial host program to connect with your Disco board:
.. code-block:: console
$ minicom -D /dev/ttyACM0
You should see the following message on the console:
.. code-block:: console
Hello World! stm32n6570_dk/stm32n657xx
Debugging
=========
You can debug an application in the usual way using the :ref:`ST-LINK GDB Server <runner_stlink_gdbserver>`.
Here is an example for the :zephyr:code-sample:`hello_world` application.
.. zephyr-app-commands::
:zephyr-app: samples/hello_world
:board: stm32n6570_dk
:maybe-skip-config:
:goals: debug
.. note::
To enable debugging, before powering on the board, set the boot pins in the following configuration:
* BOOT0: 0
* BOOT1: 1
Another solution for debugging is to use STM32CubeIDE:
* Go to :menuselection:`File --> Import` and select :menuselection:`C/C++ --> STM32 Cortex-M Executable`.
* In the :guilabel:`Executable` field, browse to your ``<ZEPHYR_PATH>/build/zephyr/zephyr.elf``.
* In :guilabel:`MCU` field, select ``STM32N657X0HxQ``.
* Click on :guilabel:`Finish`.
* Finally, click on :guilabel:`Debug` to start the debugging session.
Running tests with twister
==========================
Due to the BOOT switches manipulation required when flashing the board using ``stm32n6570_dk``
board target, it is only possible to run twister tests campaign on ``stm32n6570_dk/stm32n657xx/sb``
board target which doesn't require BOOT pins changes to load and execute binaries.
To do so, it is advised to use Twister's hardware map feature with the following settings:
.. code-block:: yaml
- platform: stm32n6570_dk/stm32n657xx/sb
product: BOOT-SERIAL
pre_script: <path_to_zephyr>/boards/st/common/scripts/board_power_reset.sh
runner: stm32cubeprogrammer
