Today I flashed a firmware, and it ran normally. However, when I tried to flash another firmware, I encountered this issue: No Cortex-M Device found in JTAG chain.Please check the JTAG cable and the connected devices. I found the answer on Baidu, which indicated that treating the JTAG pins as I/O pins would cause the … Read more
1. What is a Download Circuit The download circuit of a microcontroller refers to the hardware circuit used to download the written program (firmware) to the internal memory of the microcontroller. This process is often referred to as programming or flashing. The download circuit includes the debugging interface with the microcontroller and the corresponding circuit … Read more
Understanding OBG in Microcontrollers: The STM32 microcontroller’s core (Cortex-M3) contains a hardware debugging module that supports various complex debugging operations. The hardware debugging module allows the core to halt when fetching addresses or accessing data—this is the assurance we have for online simulation during microcontroller development and debugging.When the core is halted, both its internal … Read more
