5 Quick start
This section describes how to start development quickly using the STM32 Nucleo-64 board.
Before installing and using the product, accept the Evaluation Product License Agreement
from the www.st.com/epla web page.
For more information on the STM32 Nucleo board and to access the demonstration
software, visit the www.st.com/stm32nucleo website.
5.1 Getting started
The STM32 Nucleo-64 board is a low-cost and easy-to-use development kit to quickly
evaluate and start development with an STM32 microcontroller in the QFP64 package. To
start using this board, follow the steps below:
1. Check the jumper position on the board, CN4 (STLK) on [1-2], [3-4], JP2 (PWR) on
[1-2], JP3 (IDD) on.
2. For correct identification of all device interfaces from the host PC, install the Nucleo
USB driver available on the www.st.com/stm32nucleo web page, before connecting the
board.
3. To power the board, connect the STM32 Nucleo-64 board to a PC with a USB Type-A
or USB Type-C
®
to Micro-B cable through the CN2 USB connector. As a result, the
green LED LD3 (PWR) lights up, LD1 (COM) blinks.
4. Press user button B1 (blue).
5. Observe that the blinking frequency of the three green LED LD4 changes, by clicking
on the button B1.
6. The demonstration software and several software examples that allow the user to use
the Nucleo features are available at www.st.com/stm32nucleo.
