Getting started with STM32L053 discovery kit
software development tools
Introduction
This document describes the software environment recommendations required to build an
application using the STM32L053 discovery kit (32L0538DISCOVERY).
The document provides guidelines to user how to build and run a sample example and how
to create and build his own application. It has the following structure:
The first chapter presents software and hardware requirements (some toolchains supporting
the STM32 families, ST-LINK/V2-1 installation and firmware package presentation).
The second chapter provides step by step guideline on how to execute and debug an
application example using some toolchains:
– IAR Embedded Workbench® for ARM® (EWARM) by IAR systems®
– Microcontroller development kit for ARM® (MDK-ARM) by Keil®
– TrueSTUDIO® by Atollic.
Although this user manual does not cover all the topics relevant to software development
environment, it demonstrates the first basic steps necessary to get started with the
compilers/debuggers and includes references for complementary information.

Figure 1. Hardware environment
The above steps will be details in the coming sections.
To run and develop any firmware applications on your STM32L053 discovery board, the
minimum requirements are as follows:
–
Windows PC (XP, Vista, 7, 8)
–

STM32 families of 32-bit ARM® Cortex®-M core-based microcontrollers are supported by a
complete range of software tools. It encompasses traditional integrated development
environments IDEs with C/C++ compilers and debuggers from major 3rd-parties (free
versions up to 64KB of code, depending on partner), completed with innovative tools from
STMicroelectronics.

ST-LINK/V2-1 installation
ST-LINK/V2-1 installation
STM32L053 discovery board includes an ST-LINK/V2-1 embedded debug tool interface.
The interface needs an ST-LINK/V2-1 dedicated USB driver to be installed. This driver is
available at www.st.com searching for ST-LINK V2-1 and is supported within software
toolchains:
•
IAR Embedded Workbench® for ARM® (EWARM)
The toolchain is installed by default in the C:\Program Files\IAR Systems\Embedded
Workbench x.x directory on the PC’s local hard disk.
After installing EWARM, install the ST-LINK/V2-1 driver by running the STLINK_V2_USB.exe from [IAR_INSTALL_DIRECTORY]\Embedded Workbench
x.x\arm\drivers\ST-LINK \ST-LINK_V2_USBdriver.exe
•
Keil® Microcontroller Development Kit (MDK-ARM) toolchain
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/V2-1 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
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.
Complementary information on the firmware package content and the STM32L0538
discovery kit requirements are available on the Getting started with STM32Firmware.
Note:
The embedded ST-LINK/V2-1 supports only SWD interface for STM32 devices.

Firmware package
The STM32L053 discovery kit firmware applications, demonstration and IPs examples are
provided in one single package and supplied in one single zip file. The extraction of the zip
file generates one folder, STM32L053-Discovery_FW_VX.Y.Z, which contains the following
subfolders:
Figure 2. Package contents
Application examples: Including set of applications with pre-configured projects.
Demonstrations: Including set of demonstrations with pre-configured projects.
Peripheral examples: Including set of examples with pre-configured projects for each
peripheral.
Template project: pre-configured project with empty main function to be customized. This
is helpful to get start creating your own application based on the peripherals drivers.

The following is the procedure for compiling/linking and executing an existing EWARM
project.
Steps below can be applied to an already existing example, demonstration or template
project included in STM32L053 discovery package that is available at www.st.com web site.
First of all, you need to go through firmware/readme.txt file which contains the firmware
description and hardware/software requirements.
