6.4.2 Drivers
Since Windows
®
10, driver installation is not mandatory.
Anyway, it is highly recommended as it allocates an ST‑specific name to the ST-LINK COM port in the system
device manager.
For detailed information on the ST-LINK USB drivers, refer to the technical note Overview of ST-LINK derivatives
(TN1235).
6.4.3 STLINK-V3EC firmware upgrade
The STLINK-V3EC embeds a firmware upgrade (stsw-link007) mechanism through the USB port. The firmware
might evolve during the lifetime of the STLINK-V3EC product (for example to add new functionalities, fix bugs,
and support new microcontroller families). Keep the
STLINK-V3EC firmware up to date before starting to use the
STM32U5G9J-DK2 board. The latest version of this firmware is available from the www.st.com website.
For detailed information on the ST-LINK USB drivers, refer to the technical note Overview of ST-LINK derivatives
(TN1235).
6.4.4 Using an external debug tool to program and debug the on-board STM32
To support an external debug tool, set the jumper (JP3) to isolate the output I/O from STLINK-V3EC. Then
connect the external debug tool through the STDC14/MIPI10 debug connector (CN11) or through the
Tag‑Connect
™
footprint (CN10) with a TC2050-IDC-NL cable.
