Hi, who knows how to read the fixed serial number of the chip?

a greeting

OK …. good members use Google first. Like this:
UID site:stm32duino.com

The above results in: viewtopic.php?t=245

Thank you and sorry,

I had searched by putting the name of the record and nothing appeared with direct relationship.

Thank you

Very simple.

1. Read the datasheet – this is always going to be your first step.

2. Find out where the uid is located, as their location is family specific.

3. Fix a data type of your choice to that address.

4. Done.

Hi everyone,

I’ve done some of the work for the Nucleo boards – Feel free to update the example below based upon Roger’s input from:

Just a tips about STM core, you can uses CMSIS definitions to be more generic and avoid usage of switch for each board:

ex for STM32F103:
https://github.com/stm32duino/Arduino_C … 3xb.h#L674
#define FLASHSIZE_BASE 0x1FFFF7E0U /*!< FLASH Size register base address */
#define UID_BASE 0x1FFFF7E8U /*!< Unique device ID register base address */

As I read the link, the addresses are not generic and for the STM32F1xx only…

Those defines are generic not its value and for all STM32YYxx families.

Exactly..

But coming from my lack of knowledge.. In order to avoid usage of switch for each board.
How do I access these #defines through compilation assuming I don’t know where to look in the register as the following example does in my search for a generic piece of code..?

#if defined(ARDUINO_NUCLEO_F103CB) || defined(ARDUINO_NUCLEO_F103C8) // Add more F1-board if necessary

// UID for F1 devices in general as I google the info
#define FLASHSIZE_BASE 0x1FFFF7E0U // FLASH Size register base address
#define UID_BASE 0x1FFFF7E8U // Unique device ID register base address

#endif;

With STM Core, no specific include to do, only use the definition in the sketch. CMSIS headers are already included.

Hi all,

There is the final code-contribution for now.. I hope it will come in handy for some – And feel free to improve it! :-)

Note that on core using CMSIS, like STM core, you redefined CMSIS define: UID_BASE and FLASHSIZE_BASE.

To be more generic with board name, I’ve added a define to recipe.cpp.o.pattern in platform.txt after -DARDUINO_{build.board}

Now I see what you have been trying to tell me for the last couple of days. :-)

I thought that I had to make the #defines myself at the top of the script with the ecaxt same names : UID_BASE and FLASHSIZE_BASE.. And trying that, I’ve got errors. And that’s why I kept the “board-case”. But still, thanks for being patience with me.

However the board is not recognized – do you have any idea way that is..?

In fact, BOARDNAME is currently not defined in platform.txt. I’ve added it manually in platform.txt in order to have it directly. I think I will add it to platform.txt. This could be useful.

Btw.
Is there way of reading the usages of Flash and SRAM from sketch..?


Sketch uses 59564 bytes (5%) of program storage space. Maximum is 1048576 bytes.
Global variables use 2748 bytes (2%) of dynamic memory, leaving 95556 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 98304 bytes.

Hi everyone,

The “BOARDNAME” in this thread aka -DBOARDNAME=”{build.board}” in the platform.txt file has been changes to -DBOARD_NAME=”{build.board}”.
So in order for the code to work, just change the name : BOARDNAME to BOARD_NAME

Yes this is BOARD_NAME but it does not change:
