  • Creating a Project in STM32CubeIDE25:42
  • Architecture of the Driver6:52
  • Integrating the Driver with STM3220:03

    In this part we will create the low level SPI Communication function that will be attached to the W5500 to make complete working system. We will create the files :-

    1. w5500_spi.h

    2. w5500_spi.c

  • Writing the Initialization Code26:41
  • Static Host Configuration7:18
  • Creating a Small Network for Testing6:04
  • Redirecting printf() to USART6:33

    In this lesson we will learn how to redirect the output of standard library function printf() to a serial port and then view them on a serial terminal application like RealTerm.


    The following code snippets would be useful for copy/pasting.

    static void UWriteData(const char data);


    void UWriteData(const char data)

    {

    while(__HAL_UART_GET_FLAG(&huart2,UART_FLAG_TXE)==RESET);


    huart2.Instance->TDR=data;


    }


    int __io_putchar(int ch)

    {

    UWriteData(ch);

    return ch;

    }


    To disable buffering of stdout


    #include <stdio.h>


    setbuf(stdout, NULL);


    for(int i=0;i<100;i++)

    {

    printf("Hello World ! %d\r\n",i);

    HAL_Delay(1000);

    }

  • Obtaining MAC Addresses8:47
  • Debugging using the STM32CubeIDE16:06

    STM32CubeIDE has a great debugger! Let us see how to use it.

Requirements

  • Basic Knowledge of 'C' Programming
  • Basic Experience of Microcontrollers
  • Familiarity with STM32CubeIDE/CubeMX and HAL Drivers
  • ST Development Boards Like Nucleo or Discovery
  • A PC (Windows), no additional PAID software required.

Description

W5500 is a great chip to add Internet Connectivity to Embedded Systems over Ethernet. Ethernet is a preferred communication method in Industrial Automation because it is more reliable and secure than WiFi. No long-waiting time for connection establishments to access points or frequent disconnections.


The W5500 from WizNet has inbuilt TCP/IP stack that means we can use a MCU which has very limited computing power and RAM. You don't need to integrate complex TCP/IP stacks on your MCU's firmware. Many TCP/IP Stacks like lwIP requires a real time operating system in order to work. Which makes writing software a bit complex because the developer needs to be familiar with RTOS programming.


You only need to download a simple driver from WizNet's website and port it to STM32 and then start your development. It provides BSD socket like API for TCP and UDP communication.


We will write a simple TCP client and send text message to a server using our client.  After this you are sure that your hardware and software setup is perfect and can move on to create advance projects using HTTP, REST and MQTT.


For MQTT we will use the Paho MQTT client. Which is a free and open-source MQTT client. We will integrate Paho in our STM32 platform.
