Nucleo H723ZG, DEV_TARGET_HELD_UNDER_RESET

Hello community,

has anyone encountered  DEV_TARGET_HELD_UNDER_RESET issues with a Nucleo Board (ST-Link V3) ?

I have multiple Nucleo H723ZG and for some reason I can't connect to any of them since a few days.

I have tried:

  • swapping USB cables and adapters
  • using a docking station or the notebook ports themselves
  • external power supply vs. power supply over USB
  • applying the board reset jumper and the ST-Link reset jumper
  • trying to first power-up, then connect to computer
  • the ST-Link Upgrade tool
  • different IDE like VScode, STM32CubeIDE
  • serial COM tools like Minicom
  • turning off the computer and starting again

With all the combination I can max. achieve to see the board in the COM port (e.g. as /dev/tty.usbmodem21103), nothing more. Some boards draw 0.35A from remote which I find high, others only 0.1A. Others draw 500mA from the USB; which I find very high. It appears as if this is an issue with my computer...

        STLINK-V3:

          Product ID: 0x374e

          Vendor ID: 0x0483  (STMicroelectronics)

          Version: 1.00

          Serial Number: 0018001C3156501520323443

          Speed: Up to 480 Mb/s

          Manufacturer: STMicroelectronics

          Location ID: 0x01100000 / 1

          Current Available (mA): 500

          Current Required (mA): 500

          Extra Operating Current (mA): 0

Any ideas?

Many thanks

    Same software on all of them, breaking the same way?

    If you add a jumper between BT0 (BOOT0) and VDD pins, is the core accessible after a board level power cycle?

    Thanks for both hints.

    With one of the boards, I even managed to connect tin the CubeProgrammer.

    And the board appears in the Terminal as /dev/tty.usbmodem213203

    I have the impression, that other software (e.g. VScode) can't connect to the board if I don't close the STM32CubeProgrammer first, could this be? I managed to flash software, but only after first disconnecting from both Minicom and STM32CubeProgrammer...

    So you can connect now - good.

    >can't connect to the board if I don't close the STM32CubeProgrammer first, could this be?

    Maybe, as long as a device is "used"/connected by any program, others have no access.

    But (on Win or my Linux system here) CubeProgrammer only occupies the port on "connect(ed)" .

    Others, like terminal programs, most time take the used port and then occupy the port permanently .
