Programming and Debugging ************************* Applications for the ``nucleo_l476rg`` board configuration can be built and flashed in the usual way (see :ref:`build_an_application` and :ref:`application_run` for more details). Flashing ======== Nucleo L476RG board includes an ST-LINK/V2-1 embedded debug tool interface. This interface is supported by the openocd version included in the Zephyr SDK since v0.9.2. Flashing an application to Nucleo L476RG ---------------------------------------- Connect the Nucleo L476RG to your host computer using the USB port. Then build and flash an application. Here is an example for the :ref:`hello_world` application. Run a serial host program to connect with your Nucleo board: .. code-block:: console $ minicom -D /dev/ttyACM0 Then build and flash the application. .. zephyr-app-commands:: :zephyr-app: samples/hello_world :board: nucleo_l476rg :goals: build flash You should see the following message on the console: .. code-block:: console Hello World! arm Debugging ========= You can debug an application in the usual way. Here is an example for the :ref:`hello_world` application. .. zephyr-app-commands:: :zephyr-app: samples/hello_world :board: nucleo_l476rg :maybe-skip-config: :goals: debug .. _Nucleo L476RG website: https://www.st.com/en/evaluation-tools/nucleo-l476rg.html .. _STM32 Nucleo-64 board User Manual: https://www.st.com/resource/en/user_manual/dm00105823.pdf .. _STM32L476RG on www.st.com: https://www.st.com/en/microcontrollers/stm32l476rg.html .. _STM32L476 reference manual: https://www.st.com/resource/en/reference_manual/DM00083560.pdf
