Application note
Getting started with the STM8S
Introduction
This application note complements the information in the STM8S datasheets by describing
the minimum hardware and software environment required to build an application around an
STM8S 8-bit microcontroller device. It is divided into the following sections:
■ Power supply
■ Analog-to-digital converter (ADC)
■ Clock management
■ Reset control and development
■ Debugging tool support
■ STM8 software toolchain
■ Setting up the STM8 development environment
This application note also contains detailed reference design schematics with descriptions
of the main components. In addition, some hardware recommendations are given.
