LEARN STM32 WITH PROJECT: Programming for Embedded Systems real-time embedded systems using AT24C08, Software and more - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Hi, welcome to the first project. In this project, I will teach you how to install the software that are necessary for this project. So, let's get started. After finishing this project, you will be able to install STM32QPIMX, Kyle MegaVision and ST-Link USB Driver. Before I start with the install license set, I would like to make sure you are aware of what is STM32QPIMX and Kyle MegaVision.

★STM32QPIMX is a graphical software used for generating C code which is based on HAL library for parallel initialization. This is a really good software especially for beginners in 32-bit microcontrollers. Because compared to 8-bit microcontrollers, the 32-bit microcontrollers have a lot of peripherals that are quite complex to configure manually by reading the register definition in datasheets.

★The learning curve is quite high, so for beginners in 32-bit microcontrollers, I recommend you to use QPIMX. QPIMX is used only for generating the C code and cannot be used for editing, compiling and debugging the code. So, you need an IDE. Kyle MegaVision is one of the IDE for ARM microcontrollers programming.

★Actually, this IDE can be used for all ARM microcontrollers not only from ST, such as ArtMail, NXP or other ARM-based microcontrollers. So, I think it is a good investment to learn this IDE because if in the future you need to move to another ARM-based microcontroller, you don't need to learn a new IDE again. Okay, let's move to the software installation.

★There are 7 files that you need to download. The first one is STM32QPIMX. This is the installer for QPIMX. And then STM32QPF1. This is the HAL library for STM32F1 microcontroller. If you are using another version of STM32, for example STM32F4, then you can search for that. And then this one is the installer for ST-Link USB Downloader.
