Designing a custom board with STM32H725ZGT3

[Ironman]

I designed a custom board using the STM32H725ZGT3. The references I followed include the datasheet, application note AN5419, and the STM32H745ZIT6 Nucleo board design, among others.

 

After powering up the board, I was able to connect to it via ST-Link using STM32CubeProgrammer, and successfully uploaded a simple blink code using STM32CubeIDE. The code worked, and the LED started blinking.

 

However, after a power cycle (i.e., turning the main power off and on again), the board stopped running the code, and the LED no longer blinked. I tried reconnecting with STM32CubeProgrammer, but I received a "Target not found" error.

 

After that, I connected the BOOT pin to 3.3V. This allowed me to connect to the board again using STM32CubeProgrammer, but I couldn’t upload code using STM32CubeIDE. I then changed a setting in the CubeIDE:

 

System Core → RCC → Parameter Settings → Power Parameters → PWR_LDO_SUPPLY

 

After this change, I was able to successfully upload the code. However, the LED no longer blinked as before. I tried connecting the BOOT pin to ground again, but it still didn’t work.

 

My Questions:

 

Is my schematic correct?

 

Is the MCU damaged?

 

If the code uploads successfully and the board connects, why is the LED not blinking? Could it

be a power issue?

PDR_ON should be tied to VDD.

VCAP caps should be 2.2 uF, not 0.1 uF.

 

I doubt anything is damaged.

I'm using the programming connector always with NRST.

Measure the voltage at VCAP, it should be close to the VOS you set (1.x V).

Hi @Ironman 

You might be able to recover your MCU by selecting power down mode or under reset while connecting to CubeProgrammer if it is stuck due to incorrect power configuration.

Thank you all

I finally I got the solution from

It worked for me
