oscillators information

[Vtrai]

can you please explain me about the X2 and X3 crystal oscillators in STM32F407VGT6, LQFP100 discovery board and what about SB13,14 not fitted

Read OSC clock chapter in UM1472.

Hello @Vtrai​ 

X2 to be used with HSE

X3 to be used with LSE

In crystal mode SB13 and SB14 must be not fitted because PH0 and PH1 are used as in and out for the oscillator.

Otherwise if PH0 and PH1 are use as GPIO instead of clock, SB13 and SB14 must be closed and R24, R25 and R68 must be removed and you can visualize those signals on connector P2

For more details please refer to the User manual Discovery kit with STM32F407VG MCU UM1472 and the schematic of STM32F407VG Discovery MB997.

Best regards
