5 ST-LINK/V2 installation and development
STM32F4DISCOVERY board includes an ST-LINK/V2 embedded debug tool interface that
is supported by the following software toolchains:
● IAR™ Embedded Workbench for ARM (EWARM) available from www.iar.com
The toolchain is installed by default in the C:\Program Files\IAR Systems\Embedded
Workbench 6.2 directory on the PC’s local hard disk.
After installing EWARM, install the ST-LINK/V2 driver by running the
ST-Link_V2_USB.exe from [IAR_INSTALL_DIRECTORY]\Embedded Workbench
6.2\arm\drivers\ST-Link \ST-Link_V2_USBdriver.exe
● RealView Microcontroller Development Kit (MDK-ARM) toolchain available from
www.keil.com
The toolchain is installed by default in the C:\Keil directory on the PC’s local hard disk;
the installer creates a start menu µVision4 shortcut.
When connecting the ST-LINK/V2 tool, the PC detects new hardware and asks to install
the ST-LINK_V2_USB driver. The “Found New Hardware wizard” appears and guides
you through the steps needed to install the driver from the recommended location.
● Atollic TrueSTUDIO® STM32 available from www.atollic.com
The toolchain is installed by default in the C:\Program Files\Atollic directory on the PC’s
local hard disk.
The ST-Link_V2_USB.exe is installed automatically when installing the software
toolchain.
● Altium™ TASKING VX-toolset for ARM® Cortex-M available from www.tasking.com
The toolchain is installed by default in the “C:\Program Files\TASKING directory on the
PC’s local hard disk. The ST-Link_V2_USB.exe is installed automatically when
installing the software toolchain.
Note: The embedded ST-LINK/V2 supports only SWD interface for STM32 devices.
Refer to the firmware package release notes for the version of the supporting development
toolchains.
