Buy STM32F103CBT6 pre-programmed with ST-Link firmware?

[MUmmi.1]

STM32F103CBT6 is the same MPU used on the Nucleo demo boards as an ST-Link implementation.

Is it possible to get these processors pre-programmed with ST-Link firmware?

Under what conditions, if any?

Welcome, @MUmmi.1​, to the community!

unfortunately, the ST-Link firmware is proprietary and therefore cannot be distributed, either as a binary or pre-programmed on an STM32. The only legal way to get it is by buying an ST-LINK/V2 or ST-LINK/V2-1 (part of many NUCLEO and some DISCOVERY boards).

Does it answer your question?

Hi Peter,

Thanks for your prompt response. Is ST-LINK/V2 been supported or is it ST-LINK /V3 ?

[Peter BENSCH]

What do you mean by "is been supported..."?

STM32F103 is only included on the ST-LINK/V2 or /V2-1, the ST-LINK/V3 contain a different STM32.

Hi Peter,

My apologies , was a typo . I meant to ask if STM32F103 supports ST-LINK/V3 as well.

Based on your response, I have gotten the answer.

Thanks
