This port supports the Nucleo68 and the USB dongle of the P-NUCLEO-WB55 kit. Both have 1 MB of Flash memory.
The STM32Cube_FW_WB_V1.3.0 provides the HAL and WPAN, and initializes the device and the initial Makefile. For easy development, Ozone project files are generated as well.
In this port, the Nucelo68 or the USB Dongle from the P-NUCLEO-WB55 can be used.
Last test was done using FUS v1.2 and HCI BLE Firmware v1.13 on Nucleo68 See STM32Cube_FW_WB_V1.13.0/Projects/STM32WB_Copro_Wireless_Binaries/Release_Notes.html for firmware install instructions.
Note: Segger RTT is currently not really usable. When sleep modes ared disabled for debuggin (see port_thread()) RTT works, but the output buffer quickly overflows. In Block mode, radio stops working.
The debug output is sent over USART1 and is available via the ST-Link v2.
To flash the dongle, SWD can be used via the lower 6 pins on CN1:
- 3V3
- PB3 - SWO (semi hosting not used)
- PA14 - SCLK
- PA13 - SWDIO
- NRST
- GND
The debug output is sent over USART1 and is available via PB6.
FreeRTOS V10.2.0 is used to run stack, you can get this example version by checking out official repo:
$ cd Middlewares
$ git submodule add https://github.com/aws/amazon-freertos.git
$ git submodule update
& cd amazon-freertos && git checkout v1.4.8
Or by specifying path to FreeRTOS
$ make FREERTOS_ROOT=path_to_freertos
To build all examples, run make
$ make
All examples and the .jedbug Ozone project files are placed in the 'build' folder.
The Makefile builds different versions:
- example.elf: .elf file with all debug information
- example.bin: .bin file that can be used for flashing
There are different options to flash and debug the Nucleo68 board. The Nucleo68 boards comes with an on-board ST-Link programmer and debugger. As an alternative, the ST-Link programmer can be replaced by an SEGGER J-Link OB. Finally, the STM32 can be programmed with any ARM Cortex JTAG or SWD programmer via the SWD jumper.
Please use any ARM Cortex SWD programmer via the SWD interface desribed in the hardware section.
When using an external J-Link programmer or after installing J-Link OB on the Nucleo68 board, you can flash and debug using the cross-platform SEGGER Ozone Debugger. It is included in some J-Link programmers or can be used for free for evaluation usage.
Just start Ozone and open the .jdebug file in the build folder. When compiled with "ENABLE_SEGGER_RTT", the debug output shows up in the Terminal window of Ozone. Note: as mentioned before, Segger RTT currently stops working when CPU2 has started up.
All debug output can be either send via SEGGER RTT or via USART1. To get the console from USART1, simply connect your board under STLink-v2 to your PC or connect PB6 (USART1 TX) of the Nucleo board to an USB-2-UART adapter and open a terminal at 115200.
In src/btstack_config.h resp. in example/btstack_config.h of the generated projects, additional debug information can be enabled by uncommenting ENABLE_LOG_INFO.
Also, the full packet log can be enabled in src/btstack_port.c by uncommenting the hci_dump_init(..) line. The console output can then be converted into .pklg files for OS X PacketLogger or WireShark by running tool/create_packet_log.py
In BTstack, the GATT Database is defined via the .gatt file in the example folder. During the build, the .gatt file is converted into a .h file with a binary representation of the GATT Database and useful defines for the application.
