Bootload command no longer responds

Post by Renato »

Arduino IDE, board STM32G071RB select, but using STM32G071KB.
First load of the code occurs correctly via USART1.
A new load does not occur because the microcontroller does not respond to the bootload command (BOOT0 to 1 and reset).
After reset the preloaded code continues running.
What could be happening ?

So you flash over serial ?
when you told a new load does not occur ? You reset it before the load with the correct bootX config ?

You reset it before the load with the correct bootX config ? Yes. BOOT0 pin to 3.3V and reset

Well you have to ensure all the pattern conditions are met (according to the AN):

If it does not works, then I advise to ask on ST community.

Well, I am far from being an STM32 MCU expert. I am learning.
Analyzing the pattern 11, I deduce that having recorded the first time, the last 3 options are eliminated.

The second option there are 2 bits to consider.
I conclude then that CubePRG could have changed these bits and canceled this bootload function, may be
from Arduino IDE command to CubePRG CLI. (?)
Anyway, tell me how to reactivate the mcu in a situation like this and how to proceed to avoid this.
Tks and rgrds

I've dig into this and I think I understand why you are in this situation.

The first time you flashed you were in the 3rd line with the flash memory empty.

Using the Cube programmer you will be able to see how your board is configured. I guess the nBOOT_SEL is checked then you will not be able to enter in bl mode using the BOOT0 pin.
You will have to uncheck it and apply.

I've do it and it now works as you expect.

Fine. Can you add [solved] to your first post title. Thanks.
