@par Example Description
This example shows how to re-route the C library printf function to the UART.
The UART outputs a message on the HyperTerminal.
The STM32 Nucleo boards integrate the ST-LINK/V2.1 interfacing with the PC and
offering the following capabilities:
Debug and programming port
Virtual com port interface
Mass storage interface
USB power management request for more than 100 mA power
Once connected to your PC via the ST-LINK port, the STM32 Nucleo board is enumerated
as a serial communication port USART2 and listed under Ports (COM & LPT) of Windows
Device Manager.
This implementation shows how to retarget the C library printf function to the UART
in order to output the printf message on the Hyperterminal using USART2 interface
connected to ST-LINK MCU in order to support Virtual Com Port.
The communication port USART2 is configured as follows:
- BaudRate = 9600 baud
- Word Length = 8 Bits
- One Stop Bit
- ODD parity
- Hardware flow control disabled (RTS and CTS signals)
- Receive and transmit enabled
To identify the Nucleo board VCP, you have just to perform the follwing actions on
your Windows PC:
- Click Start, and enter Device Manager into the Search field. Click Device Manager .
- Double-click Ports (COM & LPT).
- Find the Nucleo board VCP: STMicroelectronics STLink Virtual COM Port (COM..)
To receive the printf output message on the Hyperterminal, apply this configuration
on your serial terminal:
- Port name = COM.. (already identified on Device Manager)
- Word Length = 7 Bits
- One Stop Bit
- Odd parity
- BaudRate = 9600 baud
- flow control: None
@note Care must be taken when using HAL_Delay(), this function provides accurate delay (in milliseconds)
based on variable incremented in SysTick ISR. This implies that if HAL_Delay() is called from
a peripheral ISR process, then the SysTick interrupt must have higher priority (numerically lower)
than the peripheral interrupt. Otherwise the caller ISR process will be blocked.
To change the SysTick interrupt priority you have to use HAL_NVIC_SetPriority() function.
@note The application needs to ensure that the SysTick time base is always set to 1 millisecond
to have correct HAL operation.
@note The clock setting is configured to have the max product performance (max clock frequency)
so not optimized in term of power consumption.

@par Hardware and Software environment
- This example runs on STM32F411xEx devices.
- This example has been tested with STMicroelectronics STM32F4xx-Nucleo RevC
boards and can be easily tailored to any other supported device
and development board.
- STM32F4xx-Nucleo RevC Set-up
- Connect the Nucleo board to your PC with a USB cable type A to mini-B
to ST-LINK connector (CN1).
- Please ensure that the ST-LINK connector CN2 jumpers are fitted.
@par How to use it ?
In order to make the program work, you must do the following :
- Open your preferred toolchain
- Rebuild all files and load your image into target memory
- Run the example
