5 Quick start
The STM32H7 Nucleo-144 board is a low-cost and easy-to-use development kit, used to 
evaluate and start development quickly with an STM32H7 microcontroller in LQFP144 
package.
Before installing and using the product, accept the Evaluation Product License Agreement 
from the www.st.com/epla web page. For more information on the STM32H7 Nucleo-144 
and for demonstration software, visit the www.st.com/stm32nucleo
 web page.
5.1 Getting started
Follow the sequence below to configure the Nucleo-144 board and launch the 
demonstration application (For components location, refer to 
Figure 4):
1. Check the JP2 (5 V) position (Refer to Section 6.4). Make sure JP4 (IDD) is selected 
(Refer to Section 6.8) and make sure JP5 (1.8 V / 3.3 V) is correctly configured (Refer 
to Section 6.4.9)
2.  For the correct identification of the device interfaces from the host PC and before 
connecting the board, install the Nucleo USB driver available on the 
www.st.com/stm32nucleo website.
3.  Power the board by connecting the STM32H7 Nucleo-144 board to a PC with a USB 
cable ‘Type-A to Micro-B’ through the USB connector CN1 on the ST-LINK. As a result, 
the green LED LD5 (PWR) and LD4 (COM) light up and the red LED LD3 blinks.
4.  Press button B1 (Left button).
5.  Observe the blinking frequency of the three LEDs LD1 to LD3 changes, by clicking on 
the button B1.
6.  The software demonstration and the several software examples, that allow the user to 
use the Nucleo features, are available at the www.st.com/stm32nucleo web page.
7.  Develop an application, using the available examples.
