Hi

I' am devloping an Hardware using STM32G491RET6 where I'm using many interfaces such as I2C, SPI, RTC, USB, RS232, ETH etc.

The above hardwase is not yet fabricated, but we want to develp a software before the fabricated board arrive. Hence in order to develop the code which Eval Board is required.

The one which is availabel "NUCLEO-G491RE", this has only IO access available but does not have any trascivers onborad where we cannot interface.

Kindly suggest the Eval board where I can use maximum interfaces as mentioned.

Regards

    Hello @Pulkeshi and welcome to the community,

    The more easiest way to find an eval board for a specific product is to use STM32CubeMx:

    1- Go to Board Selector tab

    2- Type the family name: in your case "G4"

    3- Go to the list appeared at the bottom that shows all the available boards for that family.

    In your case only these eval board are available:

    Unfortunately not for G491. Also there is no Ethernet interface for G4 family. You need to add an external bridge SPI/Ethernet or UART/Ethernet 

    This article describes how to find a suitable board for a STM32 part number: What are the use cases of the STM32CubeMX cross selector tool?

    Hope that helps.

    Not all Eval boards come with interfaces. You'll need to use external IC modules for your testing. This modules are easily available. Also you'll have option of choosing the best module as per your requirements.
