STMicroelectronics STM32 boards (netduino2, netduinoplus2, olimex-stm32-h405, stm32vldiscovery) — QEMU documentation

# STMicroelectronics STM32 boards (`netduino2`, `netduinoplus2`, `olimex-stm32-h405`, `stm32vldiscovery`)

The STM32 chips are a family of 32-bit ARM-based microcontroller by STMicroelectronics.

The STM32F1 series is based on ARM Cortex-M3 core. The following machines are based on this chip :

- `stm32vldiscovery` STM32VLDISCOVERY board with STM32F100RBT6 microcontroller

The STM32F2 series is based on ARM Cortex-M3 core. The following machines are based on this chip :

- `netduino2` Netduino 2 board with STM32F205RFT6 microcontroller

The STM32F4 series is based on ARM Cortex-M4F core, as well as the STM32L4 ultra-low-power series. The STM32F4 series is pin-to-pin compatible with STM32F2 series. The following machines are based on this ARM Cortex-M4F chip :

- `netduinoplus2` Netduino Plus 2 board with STM32F405RGT6 microcontroller

- `olimex-stm32-h405` Olimex STM32 H405 board with STM32F405RGT6 microcontroller

- `b-l475e-iot01a` B-L475E-IOT01A IoT Node board with STM32L475VG microcontroller

There are many other STM32 series that are currently not supported by QEMU.
