The “Hot Plug” option allows to connect to the target without halt or reset. This is
useful to update the RAM addresses or the IP registers while the application is
running.
•Enable/Disable debug in low-power mode
•Enable/Disable Trace LOG file generation
Available reset modes:
•software system reset
•hardware reset
•core reset
Note: When the “connect under reset” mode is selected, the hardware reset mode is automatically
selected. When programming the option bytes, a reset is issued at the end of the operation.
This reset is handled separately and is not affected by this option.
3.3 Memory display and modification
In addition to the Device information zone, the main window contains two other zones:
•Memory display
•Memory data
Memory display: This zone contains three edit boxes:
Address: Memory start address from which the user wants to read.
Size: Amount of data to read.
Data width: Width of the displayed data (8-bit, 16-bit or 32-bit).
STM32 ST-LINK utility features UM0892
20/54 DocID16987 Rev 23
Memory data: This zone displays the data read from a file or the memory content of a
connected device. The user can modify the content of the file before downloading.
•To use this zone to display the content of a binary, Intel Hex or Motorola S-record file,
go to File | Open file...
•To use this zone to read and display memory content of a connected device, enter the
memory start Address, data Size and the Data Width in the Memory display zone and
then press Enter.
•After reading data, the user also can modify each value merely by double-clicking on
the concerned cell as illustrated by Figure 15. The user also can save the device
memory content into a binary, Intel Hex or Motorola S-record file using the menu File |
Save file as...
•When LiveUpdate feature is used the device memory grid is updated in real time and
the data that have been modified are colored in red.
Figure 15. STM32 ST-LINK utility user interface
Note: When the memory data zone displays device memory contents, any modification is
automatically applied to the chip. The user can modify the user Flash memory, RAM
memory and peripherals registers.
For the STM32F2 and STM32F4 devices, the OTP area can be modified directly from the
memory data zone.

3.4 Flash memory erase
There are two types of Flash memory erase:
•Flash mass erase: Erase all the memory Flash memory sectors of the connected
device. This is done by clicking on the menu Target | Erase Chip.
•Flash sector erase: Erase the selected sector(s) of the Flash memory. To select
sector(s), go to Target | Erase Sectors... the Flash Memory Mapping dialog box is
displayed, where the user can select the sector(s) to erase, as shown in Figure 16.
–Select all button selects all the Flash memory pages.
–Deselect all button deselects all selected page.
–Cancel button discards the erase operation even if some pages are selected.
–Apply button erases all the selected pages.

b) Verify after programming: slow but reliable verification method which reads all the
programmed memory zone after the program operation ends and compares it with
the file content.
7. At last, click on the Start button to start programming:
a) If the Reset after programming box is checked, an MCU reset is issued.
b) If the Full Flash memory Checksum box is checked, the checksum of the full
Flash memory is calculated after programming operation, and displayed in the log
window.
8. Choose a verification method by selecting one of the two radio buttons:
a) Verify while programming: fast on-chip verification method which compares the
program buffer content (portion of file) with the Flash memory content.
b) Verify after programming: slow but reliable verification method which reads all the
programmed memory zone after the program operation ends and compares it with
the file content.
9. At last, click on the Start button to start programming:
a) If Target | Program & Verify... is selected in the first step, a check is done during
the programming operation.
b) If the Reset after programming box is checked, an MCU reset is issued.
Note:1 The STM32F2 and STM32F4 Series supports different programming modes depending on
the MCU supply voltage. When using ST-LINK, the MCU supply voltage should be specified
STM32 ST-LINK utility features UM0892
24/54 DocID16987 Rev 23
in the Target | Settings Menu to be able to program the device with the correct mode.
When using ST-LINK/V2, the supply voltage is detected automatically.
If the device is read-protected, the protection is disabled. If some Flash memory pages are
write-protected, the protection is disabled during programming and then recovered.
Note:2 The user can program Hex/Srec files that contains multiple segments for different target
memory locations (Internal Flash memory, external Flash memory, Option bytes...).
When programming the Read Out Protection to level 2 (debug and boot in SRAM/system
Memory features are DISABLED), a message box is displayed for confirmation to avoid
protecting the chip by accident.
Note:3 The extra options are dedicated for programming operation on unprotected and erased
devices.
3.6 Option bytes configuration
The STM32 ST-LINK utility can configure all the option bytes via the Option bytes dialog
box (shown in Figure 19), which is accessed by Target | Option bytes....
The Option bytes dialog box contains the following sections:
•Read Out protection

3.8 Automatic mode functions
The Automatic mode dialog box shown in Figure 22 allows programing and configuring
STM32 devices in loop. It allows to carry out the following actions on the STM32 devices:
•Full chip erase
•Flash programming
•Verify:
– Verify while programming
– Verify after programming
•Option bytes configuration
•Run application
Clicking on the Start button executes the selected actions on the connected STM32 device
and waits to repeat the same actions, after disconnecting the current device and connecting
the new device.
Figure 22. Automatic mode
Note: If the user deselects Flash programming action while the STM32 Flash memory is readout
protected, it is automatically unprotected.
If the user deselects Flash programming action while some or all STM32 Flash memory are
write-protected, they are automatically unprotected and restored after programming
operation.
The connection to the device should be established to be able to select the option bytes
configuration using the configure button.
The connected devices should be derivatives of the same STM32 family and must all be
connected in the same mode (JTAG or SWD).
The automatic mode cannot be used if more than one ST-LINK probe is connected to the
computer. A dialog is displayed to prevent the user and ask him to keep only one ST-LINK
probe connected to continue using this mode.
Before starting the automatic mode and if the option byte configuration is checked, the
DocID16987 Rev 23 31/54
UM0892 STM32 ST-LINK utility features
53
configuration of the option bytes using the "Configure..." button is mandatory.
When the option bytes is configured for the first time for a specific device ID, the initial
values are loaded from the connected device.
If the connected device has a different device ID from the device connected while
configuring option bytes, the option bytes have to be reconfigured using the "Configure..."
button before starting the automatic mode.
3.9 Developing customized loaders for external memory
Using the examples available under the ExternalLoader directory, users can develop their
custom loaders for a given external memory .
These examples are available for three toolchains, i.e. MDK-ARM™, EWARM and
TrueSTUDIO®. The development of the custom loaders can be performed using one of the
three toolchains keeping the same compiler/linker configurations, as in the examples.
To create a new external memory loader, follow the steps below:
1. Update the device information in StorageInfo structure in the Dev_Inf.c file with the
correct information concerning the external memory.
2. Rewrite the corresponding functions code in the Loader_Src.c file.
3. Change the output file name.
Note: Some functions are mandatory and cannot be omitted (see functions description in the
Loader_Src.c file).
Linker or scatter files should not be modified.
After building the external loader project, an ELF file is generated. The extension of the ELF
file depends on the used toolchain (.axf for Keil, .out for EWARM and .elf for TrueSTUDIO or
any gcc based toolchain).
The extension of the ELF file must be changed to ‘.stldr’ and the file must be copied under
/ExternalLoader directory.
3.9.1 Loader_Src.c file
Developing an external loader for a memory, based on a specific IP requires the following
functions:
•An Init function
The Init function defines the used GPIO pins which are connecting the external
memory to the device, and initializes the clock of the used IPs.
Returns 1 if success, and 0 in failure.
int Init (void)
•A Write function
The Write function programs a buffer defined by an address in the RAM range.
Returns 1 if success, and 0 if failure.
int Write (uint32_t Address, uint32_t Size, uint8_t* buffer)
•A SectorErase function
The SectorErase function erases the memory specified sectors.
Returns 1 if success, and 0 if failure.
Note: This function is not used in case of an SRAM memory
STM32 ST-LINK utility features UM0892
32/54 DocID16987 Rev 23
int SectorErase (uint32_t StartAddress, uint32_t EndAddress)
Where “StartAddress” = the address of the first sector to be erased and
“EndAddress” = the address of the end sector to be erased
It is imperative to define in an external loader the functions mentioned above. They are used
by the tool to erase and program the external memory.
For instance, if the user clicks on the program button from the external loader menu, the tool
performs the following actions:
•Automatically calls the Init function to initialize the interface (QSPI, FMC …) and the
Flash memory
•Calls SectorErase() to erase the needed Flash sectors
•Calls the Write() function to program the memory
Additionally to those functions, we can define also the functions below:
•A read function
The Read function is used to read a specific range of memory, and returns the reading
in a buffer in the RAM.
Returns 1 if success, and 0 if failure.
int Read (uint32_t Address, uint32_t Size, uint16_t* buffer)
Where “Address” = start address of read operation, “Size” = size of the read operation and
“buffer” = is the pointer to data read
Note: For QSPI/OSPI (Quad-SPI/ Octo-SPI) memories, the memory mapped mode can be
defined in the Init function; in that case the Read function is useless.
•A Verify function
The Verify function is called when selecting the “verify while programming” mode. This
function checks if the programmed memory corresponds to the buffer defined in the
RAM. It returns an uint64 defined as follow:
checksum<<32 + AddressFirstError
where “AddressFirstError” is the address of the first mismatch, and “checksum” is the
checksum value of the programmed buffer
uint64_t Verify (uint32_t FlashAddr, uint32_t RAMBufferAddr, uint32_t
Size)
•A MassErase function
The MassErase function erases the full memory.
Returns 1 if success, and 0 if failure.
int MassErase (void)
•A Checksum function
All the described functions return 1 in case of a successful operation and 0 in case of a fail.
3.9.2 Dev_Inf.c file
The StorageInfo structer is defined in this file. An example of the type of information that this
structer defines is presented below:
#if defined (__ICCARM__)
__root struct StorageInfo const StorageInfo = {

3.10 Printf via SWO viewer
The Printf via SWO Viewer displays the printf data sent from the target through SWO. It
allows to display some useful information on the running firmware.
Before starting receiving SWO data, the user has to specify the exact target system clock
frequency to allow the tool to correctly configure the ST-LINK, and the target for the correct
SWO frequency. The Stimulus port combo box allows the user to choose either a given ITM
Stimulus port (from port 0 to 31) or to receive data simultaneously from all ITM Stimulus
ports.
Figure 23. Serial wire viewer window (SWV)
The SWV information bar displays useful information on the current SWV transfer such as
the SWO frequency (deduced from the system clock frequency), and the received
(expressed in bytes).
Note: Some SWV bytes could be lost during transfer due to ST-LINK hardware buffer size
limitation.

5 STM32 ST-LINK utility external loader developing
In an external loader project, there are two basic files: Loader_Src.c and Dev_Inf.c
5.1 Loader_Src.c file
Developing an external loader for a memory, based on a specific IP requires the functions
described below. Note that it is imperative to define these functions in an external loader.
•An Init function
The Init function, defines the GPIO used to connect to the external memory, initialize
the clock of the IP used, and it defines also the used GPIOs
int Init (void)
•A Write function
It programs a buffer defined with an address in the RAM range.
int Write (uint32_t Address, uint32_t Size, uint8_t* buffer)
•A SectorErase function (In case of Flash memory)
It erases the memory sectors defined by an start address and an end address.
Note: This function is not used in case of an SRAM memory.
int SectorErase (uint32_t StartAddress, uint32_t EndAddress)
Where “StartAddress” = address of the first sector to be erased and
“EndAddress” = address of the end sector to be erased
There are other additional functions that can be defined:
•A read function
It is s used to read a specific range of memory and returns the reading in a buffer in the
RAM
int Read (uint32_t Address, uint32_t Size, uint16_t* buffer)
Where “Address” = start address of the read operation, “Size” = size of read operation and
“buffer” = pointer to data read
Note: For QSPI/OSPI (Quad-SPI/ Octo-SPI) memories, the memory mapped mode can be
defined in the Init function, in which case the Read function is useless.
•A Verify function
This function is called when selecting the “verify while programming” mode. This
function checks if the programmed memory corresponds to the buffer defined in the
RAM. It returns an uint64 defined as follow:
checksum<<32 + AddressFirstError
Where “AddressFirstError” is the address of the first mismatch, and “Checksum” is the
Checksum value of the programmed buffer.
uint64_t Verify (uint32_t FlashAddr, uint32_t RAMBufferAddr, uint32_t Size)
•A MassErase function
It erases the full memory
DocID16987 Rev 23 49/54
UM0892 STM32 ST-LINK utility external loader developing
53
int MassErase (void)
•A Checksum function
The Checksum function calculates the programmed memory checksum. The algorithm
used is the simple arithmetic sum algorithm, byte per byte. The result is truncated to
32-bit word. This calculated value, with the opened file in ST-LINK Utility checksum
value, are a faster way to verify the program operation.
Returns 1 if success, and 0 if failure.
5.2 Dev_Inf.c file
The StorageInfo structer is defined in this file. An example of the type of information that this
structer defines is presented below:
#if defined (__ICCARM__)
__root struct StorageInfo const StorageInfo = {
#else
struct StorageInfo const StorageInfo = {
#endif
"External_Loader_Name", // Device Name + version number
MCU_FLASH, // Device Type
0x08000000, // Device Start Address
0x00100000, // Device Size in Bytes (1MBytes/8Mbits)
0x00004000, // Programming Page Size 16KBytes
0xFF, // Initial Content of Erased Memory
// Specify Size and Address of Sectors (view example below)
0x00000004, 0x00004000, // Sector Num : 4 ,Sector Size: 16KBytes
0x00000001, 0x00010000, // Sector Num : 1 ,Sector Size: 64KBytes
0x00000007, 0x00020000, // Sector Num : 7 ,Sector Size: 128KBytes
0x00000000, 0x00000000,
