What is new in STVP 3.4.1 RN0011

2.3 Support of ICP mode

Two ICP modes can be selected:
• The ICP mode with Option Bytes Enabled on application:
Because option bytes are enabled before accessing the device, their settings must be
compatible with application configuration. Incompatible settings (for example: ‘PLLx2
enabled’ programmed with a 16 MHz resonator on the application, or ‘External Source’
programmed with a resonator on the application) result in a failure to access the target
device. In the case of failure, the device can still be accessed and option byte settings
ignored using the ICP mode with Option Bytes Disabled. However, this requires either
an in-application oscillator, a logic clock, or that the OSC pin of the HE10-type ICP
connector be relayed to the device’s clock pin. In this Option Bytes Enabled ICP mode,
the Hardware WatchDog option is switched to Software type on all devices except the
ST7Lite0x family. If it is programmed and the microcontroller used is a ST7MDT10-EPB
version 1.01 or earlier, the user will no longer be able to access the device. The other
ICP mode with Option Bytes Disabled must be used. See Section 3.2 on page 14 to
modify the board to v1.02 to solve this problem.
• The ICP mode with Option Bytes Disabled on application:
All options are disabled, the clock source is ‘External clock’ coming either from the
OSC pin connected to the HE10 ICP connector or from the application board.
The VDD_Appli is now connected on the new ICP-enabled programming boards, however
the user must ensure that the VDD_Appli pin is connected to the supply voltage of the
application board.
On F6x devices, the Reset pin should have a capacitance lower than 330 nF (between the
Reset pin and GND).

2.4 Support of ISP mode

The driver firmware S19 file has been included with STVP software since STVP v 1.4.1. The
driver is an ST72C254G2 device, latest version 2.5, that is soldered on the EPB.
The ISP mode using this driver is only for ST7MDT1-EPB2, ST7MDT2-EPB2 and
ST7MDT6-EPB2 boards. The ST7MDT1-DVP2 and ST7MDT2-DVP2 use a different driver
code.
Updating the ISP driver
If the version indicated on the user’s driver is lower than 2.5, the user must update it as
follows:
1. Plug in the EPB and launch STVP.
The ISP cable must not be plugged in and there should be no devices in the sockets.
2. Put a jumper on JP3 (located near the voltage regulator) to access the driver.
3. Select ST7MDT1-EPB2 with socket mode and ST72254G2 device.
4. Open the Driver.s19 file in program memory.
The checksum for V2.5 must be 0xC433.
5. Select Program -> Current Tab and verify that the option bytes values are at FE FF
(checksum 1FD). If they are different, program these values.
6. Remove JUMPER JP3 and write the new version number (2.5) on the driver label.
The EPB can now be used normally in socket or ISP mode.

RN0011 Known problems and limitations

3 Known problems and limitations

3.1 ST7MDT20x-EPB programming board versions

• For the following programming boards:
– ST7MDT20J-EPB version 2.00
– ST7MDT20M-EPB version 3.00
The user must perform a hardware patch in order to reliably program targets with these
EPBs using ICP mode. Details on how to perform this hardware patch can be found in
the application note, AN 1483 Modifying your ST7MDT20J-EPB and ST7MDT20M-
EPB to support STVP Release 1.3.1 and onwards, available from the ST
microcontroller support web site at www.st.com.
This hardware patch is designed to solve a communication problem that can occur
when attempting to program with these boards.
Note: The version number of the user’s EPB follows the serial number on a sticker attached to the
top-face of the board.
• For the ST7MDT20J-EPB (versions 2.00 and 2.01) and ST7MDT20M-EPB (versions
3.00 to 3.02), the user must provide an application VDD (5 V only) because the VDD is
not provided by the programming board via the ICC connector. The application VDD is
used by the programming board as a reference to generate the programming signal. A
maximum of 10 µA is used for the VDD reference by the programming board.
• For the ST72F321M and ST72F521M MCU targets, programmed with the
ST7MDT20M-EPB, when programming in ICP mode, during the RESET phase, certain
I/Os are not always in the RESET configuration. These I/Os will move according to the
following sequence:
PG[1:7] and PH[0:1, 3:7] RS/WPU ➜ PP High ➜ RS/WPU ➜ PP High ➜ RS
PG[0] RS/WPU ➜ PP Low ➜ RS/WPU ➜ PP Low ➜ RS
PH[2] RS/WPU ➜ PP Low ➜ RS/WPU ➜ PP High ➜ RS
where the abbreviations are as follows:
RS Reset state
WPU Input weak pull-up
PP Output push-pull
RS/WPU RS if TQFP80 package is selected in option bytes. WPU otherwise.

Caution: Use extreme caution when using these I/O pins on the application board, because of their
unstable state during RESET mode.

Known problems and limitations RN0011

3.2 ST7MDT10-EPB
• When programming in ICP mode, the user must provide an application VDD (between
3 V and 5 V) because the VDD is not provided by the programming board via the ICC
connector. The application VDD is used by the programming board as a reference to
generate the programming signal. A maximum of 10 μA is used for the VDD reference
by the programming board.
• When programming the ST7LITE0x devices in “ICP OPT Enable” mode, if the
Hardware Watchdog is enabled, the ST7MDT10-EPB must be modified to version 1.02
in order to operate without problems. If the user’s board version is 1.01, the following
modification must be done to update it to version 1.02:
– Solder side: Cut the track from RS1-3 to the via. Connect U1 pin 8 to U1 pin 11.
Connect U1 pin 9 to U8 pin 11. Connect U1 pin 10 to W1 pin 6.
– Components side: Cut the track from the via located at the right-top side of W1
(above the 10 mark).

3.3 ST7MDTUx-EPB programming board versions

For the following programming boards (all versions):
– ST7MDTU2-EPB
– ST7MDTU3-EPB
– ST7MDTU5-EPB
When programming in ICP mode, the OSC_IN pin on the user’s application board must not
be connected to the OSC_CLK pin on the ICC connector.

3.4 ST7MDT25-EPB
• For the ST72F561x9 or ST72F561x6 MCU targets, programmed with the ST7MDT25-
EPB, when programming in ICP mode, during the RESET phase, certain I/Os are not
always in the RESET configuration. These I/Os will move according to the following
sequence:
PE[1:7] and PF[4:7] RS/WPU ➜ PP High ➜ RS/WPU ➜ PP High ➜ RS
PE[0] RS/WPU ➜ PP Low ➜ RS/WPU ➜ PP Low ➜ RS
PF[0:3] RS/WPU ➜ RS/WPU ➜ RS/WPU ➜ PP High ➜ RS
where the abbreviations are as follows:
RS Reset state
WPU Input weak pull-up
PP Output push-pull
RS/WPU RS if TQFP80 package is selected in option bytes. WPU otherwise.

Caution: Use extreme caution when using these I/O pins on the application board, because of their
unstable state during RESET mode.
