In the previous post we have described how we program our embedded designs using a TagConnect cable using the STLINK-V3SET programmer. We have received a request to do the same for the much less expensive STLIN-V3MODS programmer board. STLINK-V3MODS programmer board is a simplified board of its more complete cousin STLINK-V3MINI. Confused? Here is a list: STLINK-V3SET is a full featured programmer in a plastic enclosure (our adapter plugs directly) STLINK-V3MINI is a small PCB board, no enclosure, has STDC14…

So you are going to develop using chips from ST. Those Italians and French have not only great food, but great chips! One will need a programmer and a debugger. They have this nice new STLINK-V3, looks good, let’s get it. Cool, now we need to connect it to OUR board. From our previous developments using dsPIC from Microchip, we fell in love with their robust version of the spring-loaded Tag-Connect cable: RJ12-6-pin male connector on one end; Tag-Connect 6-pin…
