Download STM32CubeIDE from the official STMicroelectronics site, accept the license, and start the Windows installer; the IDE is free with no code limits.
download the STM32 cube F4 package from the STM32 website, extract it, and copy the drivers folder into your project to configure the include path for the low-layer APIs.
Explore the UART protocol by contrasting serial and parallel transmission, and explain asynchronous and synchronous modes, baud rate, framing with start and stop bits, parity, and word length.
Develop a uart transmitter driver using stm32 ll APIs, covering project setup, clock enable, and configuring alternate function pins, plus baud rate, parity, and stop bits for transmission.
Retarget printf on STM32 by implementing the _write function and wiring it to the system output. Include stdio, build successfully, select the port, and view the hello from STM32 message.
Configure an STM32 timer in input capture mode to capture signal edges for ultrasonic distance measurements; connect timer two output to timer three input capture and test at one hertz.
Learn to build an STM32 ADC driver by configuring an ADC channel, enabling clocks, setting analog mode, selecting a software trigger, and reading conversion results.
Learn how interrupts trigger the CPU to service modules via an interrupt service routine, and how the vector table, NVIC, and external interrupt lines assign priorities in STM32 devices.
Learn to implement an input interrupt driver for STM32 low-layer APIs by configuring PC13 as an input, linking to EXTI, and handling the button press with a callback.
Develop a UART interrupt driver by enabling UART interrupts, setting priority, and implementing the interrupt service routine to handle TXI and TX complete events, with optional DMA for UART.
Configure the dma for adc multichannel data as a peripheral-to-memory transfer with circular mode, memory increment, high priority, and interrupt support.
Configure a stm32 adc injected mode driver with two channels, one hardware-triggered by a timer and one injected via software for the internal temperature sensor, in stm32 ll driver development.
implement callback functions within i2c interrupt handlers for master and slave roles, enabling buffers and handling adr, ddr, txi, btf flags to verify data transfer.
Learn to implement a DMA init function for STM32 low-layer driver development, enabling DMA clock, configuring stream seven, channel seven, memory-to-peripheral transfer, data lengths, addresses, and interrupt setup.
Welcome to the Embedded Systems STM32 Low-Layer APIs(LL) Driver Development course.
The STM32 Low-Layer APIs ( known as LL) offers a fast light-weight expert-oriented layer which is closer to the hardware than the HAL APIs (Hardware Abstraction Layer). The LL offers low-level APIs at the register level with better optimization. These require deep knowledge of the MCU and peripheral specifications which we shall cover in this course.
With a programming based approach, this course is designed to give you a solid foundation in firmware and peripheral driver development for the STM32 family of microcontrollers. The goal of this course is to teach you how to navigate the microcontroller reference manual and datasheet to extract the right information to professionally build peripheral drivers and firmware using the STM32 Low-Layer APIs
By the end of this course you will be able to develop drivers for peripherals like the ADC, UART,PWM, GPIO, TIMER,I2C, SPI, RTC, WWDG, IWDG, RCC, EXTI etc. You will also master the STM32 architecture and how to build professional embedded firmware for STM32 microcontrollers.
Please take a look at the full course curriculum.
REMEMBER : I have no doubt you will love this course. Also it comes with a FULL money back guarantee for 30 days! So put simply, you really have nothing to loose and everything to gain.
