STM32F030F4 Microcontroller

STM32F030F4 Pinout

The STM32F030F4 microcontroller incorporates the high-performance Arm Cortex-M0 32-bit RISC core operating at a 48 MHz frequency, high-speed embedded memories (up to 256 Kbytes of Flash memory and up to 32 Kbytes of SRAM), and enhanced peripherals and I/Os. All devices offer standard communication interfaces (up to two I2Cs, up to two SPIs, and up to six USARTs), one 12-bit ADC, seven general-purpose 16-bit timers, and an advanced-control PWM timer.

How to Use the STM32F030F4 IC

As this is a Microcontroller it needs to be programmed in order to work with it and there are two ways you can program this IC, the first way is to use an STLink USB Dongle which uses the single-wire debug interface to communicate with the IC. This allows it to be programmed using advanced software like Keil/CubeMX. It also allows memory access using the STLink software. Another way is to use an external USB to Serial Converter to program the device but for that, you need an IC that has a pre-programmed bootloader or you need to program the IC with a Specific bootloader.
