Hi! I am unable to detect my STM32L4Q5 MCU with ST-Link V2. Do I need to buy the ST Link V3? How do I interface it with the JTAG/SWD programming port? I thought that STM32L4P5 and Q5 family were retro-pintopin-compatible with previous L4 families?

Thanks!

A real/authentic one?

Should be able to work with current firmware.

Watch for powering buffers with VTarget

Pretty much need SWDIO, SWCLK, NRST, SWO, VCC, GND to get it working effectively.

I'm using a classic stand-alone ST-LINK/V2 with L011, L432 and L4R9 parts, so L4 / L4+ should be viable

However I see that on the  STM32L4P5G-DK development board they have included the STLINK-V3E. Is it due to compatibility or simply to showcase their latest programmer?

I think I have all of this except SWO, what is it? My VCC is 3.3V

It is the JTAG TDO / PB3 pin, can be used to implement the Serial Wire Viewer functionality, an equivalent to the Debug Communication Channel of the older ARM's

Is the SWO pin absolutely necessary if I don't use the Serial Wire Viewer? My PB3 pin is already used for something else

Is the ST-LINK firmware up to date?

[VNado.1]

I have just updated the ST-Link firmware to V2.J33.S7 (latest)

Hello everyone,

ST answered me back and apparently ST-link utility is now obselete and does not support these MCU. The new STM32CubeProgrammer worked with the chip!
