NUCLEO-F401RE - STM32 Nucleo-64 development board with STM32F401RE MCU, supports Arduino and ST morpho connectivity - STMicroelectronics

The STM32 Nucleo board provides an affordable and flexible way for users to try out new ideas and build prototypes with any STM32 microcontroller line, choosing from the various combinations of performance, power consumption and features. The Arduino™ connectivity support and ST Morpho headers make it easy to expand the functionality of the STM32 Nucleo open development platform with a wide choice of specialized shields. The STM32 Nucleo board does not require any separate probe as it 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, as well as direct access to mbed online resources.

The USART2 interface available on PA2 and PA3 of the STM32 microcontroller can be connected to ST-LINK MCU, ST morpho connector or to Arduino connector. The choice can be changed by setting the related solder bridges. By default, the USART2 communication between the target MCU and ST-LINK MCU is enabled, in order to support Virtual Com Port for mbed (SB13 and SB14 ON, SB62 and SB63 OFF). If the communication between the target MCU PA2 (D1) or PA3 (D0) and shield or extension board is required, SB62 and SB63 should be ON, SB13 and SB14 should be OFF. In such case it is possible to connect another USART to ST-LINK MCU using flying wires between ST morpho connector and CN3.
