ST Nucleo C031C6

Overview

The STM32 Nucleo-64 development board with STM32C031C6 MCU, supports Arduino and ST morpho connectivity.

The STM32 Nucleo board provides an affordable, and flexible way for users to try out new concepts, and build prototypes with the STM32 microcontroller, choosing from the various combinations of performance, power consumption and features.

The STM32 Nucleo board integrates the ST-LINK/V2-1 debugger and programmer.

The STM32 Nucleo board comes with the STM32 comprehensive software HAL library together with various packaged software examples.

The default configuration can be found in boards/st/nucleo_c031c6/nucleo_c031c6_defconfig

Connections and IOs

Each of the GPIO pins can be configured by software as output (push-pull or open-drain), as input (with or without pull-up or pull-down), or as peripheral alternate function. Most of the GPIO pins are shared with digital or analog alternate functions. All GPIOs are high current capable except for analog inputs.

Default Zephyr Peripheral Mapping:

  • UART_2 TX/RX : PA2/PA3 (ST-Link Virtual Port Com)

  • LD4 : PA5

For more details please refer to STM32 Nucleo-64 board User Manual [3].

Programming and Debugging

Nucleo C031C6 board includes an ST-LINK/V2-1 embedded debug tool interface.

Applications for the nucleo_c031c6 board configuration can be built and flashed in the usual way (see Building an Application and Run an Application for more details).

Flashing

The board is configured to be flashed using west STM32CubeProgrammer [4] runner, so its installation is required.

Flashing an application to Nucleo C031C6

Here is an example for the Blinky application.

# From the root of the zephyr repository
west build -b nucleo_c031c6 samples/basic/blinky
west flash

You will see the LED blinking every second.
