Review on πŸ”§ XYGStudy STM32F3DISCOVERY ST STM32F303VCT6 STM32 F3 ARM Cortex-M4 MCU Evaluation Development Board Embedded ST-Link/V2 Debugger Kit by Jonathan Lloyd

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A good introductory board for STM32F3

As a development board, this board is quite good. It has a nice group of parts to evaluate the chip and set up some basic I/O like SPI, I2C, USB or GPIO. It is also nice that ST-Link is integrated on this board. I was able to get the project code working with this board while waiting for my other boards to build. I wish the pre-installed ICs were easier to turn on or off like the SPI lines on a gyroscope. Also, having ST-Link on the board will make the board bigger if you try to implement a one-off project with it. My final thought is that this board can't really be a breadboard with headers like this. It's not a problem for me, maybe for others it is. I now have 2 of these boards and have started several different projects with them because they are easy enough to start a project with. Final Thoughts: This is not an Arduino board. Therefore, you should understand a little bit about how embedded systems work when purchasing this board. However, this is a good step forward for getting more information about the embedded world with ARM.

Pros
  • computers and accessories
Cons
  • Useless functions
