4 Quick start
This section describes how to start development quickly using STLINK-V3MINIE.
Before installing and using these products, accept the Evaluation Product License Agreement from the
www.st.com/epla web page.
The STLINK-V3MINIE tiny probe is a stand-alone debugging and programming probe for STM32 microcontrollers:
• It supports JTAG and SWD protocols to communicate with any STM32 microcontroller.
• It provides a Virtual COM port interface allowing the host PC to communicate with the target microcontroller
through one UART
To start using STLINK-V3MINIE, follow the steps below:
1. Check that the STDC14 to STDC14 flat cable is present inside the box.
2. Install or update the IDE or STM32CubeProgrammer (STM32CubeProg) to support the STLINK-V3MINIE
with the necessary drivers.
3. Connect the flat cable or BTB card edge connector between STLINK-V3MINIE and the application.
4.
Connect a USB Type-A to USB Type-C
®
cable between STLINK-V3MINIE and the PC.
5. Check that the COM LED is red.
6. Open the development toolchain or STM32CubeProgrammer software utility. For more details, refer to the
