Machinechat with STM32F746 and X-NUCLEO-IKS01A3

Software

Project Parts

In Arduino, use this link in the " Additional Boards Managers URLs " field: to add STM32 support.

https://github.com/stm32duino/BoardManagerFiles/raw/master/STM32/package_stm_index.json

Add these libraries thru Arduino’s Library Manager:

Approve the install of these library dependencies:

Lab1

With the STM32H746 plugged into your PC thru the USB connector (CN1), let’s make sure we can program the board by using a simple Blink LED Demo, this code will blink LD1.

void setup() {
  // initialize digital pin LED_BUILTIN as an output
  pinMode(LED_BUILTIN, OUTPUT);
};

void loop() {
  digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, HIGH);
  delay(500);
  digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, LOW);
  delay(500);
}

Verify and Upload:
LD1 should be blinking.

Lab2

The STM32H746 has an onboard ethernet, which can be enabled thru the STM32Ethernet library. Initialize this library with Ethernet.begin()., then use Ethernet.localIP() to print our new IP address to the debug terminal. In this example we should get an IP address from our local DHCP server.

Add LwIP.h and STM32Ethernet.h header files:

#include <LwIP.h>
#include <STM32Ethernet.h>

Enable Serial Port for debugging:

  // Open serial communications and wait for port to open:
  Serial.begin(115200);
  while (!Serial) {
    ; // wait for serial port to connect. Needed for native USB port only
  }

Initialize Ethernet Library

  // give the ethernet module time to boot up:
  delay(1000);

  // start the Ethernet connection:
  Ethernet.begin();

  // print the Ethernet board/shield's IP address:
  Serial.print("My IP address: ");
  Serial.println(Ethernet.localIP());

Verify and Upload, Arduino’s Serial Monitor should report an IP address:

My IP address: 192.168.3.229

Lab3

Next let’s verify we have an active link, with Ethernet.linkStatus(), the LED will only be on with an active connection. Test by removing the Ethernet Cable.

void loop() {
  if (Ethernet.linkStatus() == LinkON) {
    Serial.println("Link status: On");

    digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, HIGH);
  }
  else if (Ethernet.linkStatus() == LinkOFF) {
    Serial.println("Link status: Off");

    digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, LOW);
  } 
  delay(500); 
}

Verify and Upload, Arduino’s Serial Monitor should also report Link status, matching the LD1, unplug Ethernet Cable to verify.
