jDrones STM32 Programmer with 2.54mm and 1.27mm Pogopin programming boards


Connecting to Target Board


1) After you have downloaded and installed STM32 ST-Link Ulitity to your computer. Open the Application, first you need to load bootloader file

2) Download bootloader filer from our wiki, save it to your computer, search the bootloader file from your computer and click OK.

In this example we are using file: uc4h-bootloader-v006-jDrones.bin which is currently default bootloader for all jDrones made UC4H UAVCAN boards.

NOTE!! Always choose correct bootloader for the boards:

  • UC4H Active boards: uc4h-bootloader-v006-jDrones.bin
  • SLCAN board: uc4h-slcan-v009-jDrones.bin
  • jD-STM Programmer: jdstm32_programmer_initial.hex

Version number may differ. Check latest versions from our Firmware page

3) After successful load. ST-Link software will show loaded BIN file on the main screen.

4) Connect to target MCU. Open Target / Connect. On this point you need to have your jD-STM32 Programmer connected via USB and also use pogopin board (or similar) and connect it to target boards SWD connector. Using pogopin board, take a look at Connecting Target Board area on this page.
