4. പ്രവർത്തന നിർദ്ദേശങ്ങൾ

The STM32 Nucleo-64 board is designed for flexible development. Here are key aspects of its operation:

• Programming and Debugging: Utilize the integrated ST-LINK/V2-1 for programming and debugging your STM32 applications. This allows for direct code upload and real-time debugging without external tools.
• വെർച്വൽ COM പോർട്ട്: The board's USB connection can emulate a Virtual COM Port, enabling serial communication with your computer for data logging or command input.
• Mass Storage Device: The ST-LINK/V2-1 can also appear as a mass storage device, allowing easy drag-and-drop programming of firmware files.
• Expansion with Shields: Leverage the Arduino Uno V3 and ST morpho headers to expand the board's functionality with a wide array of compatible shields. Ensure proper pin alignment and power requirements when connecting shields.
• User LED and Buttons: The user LED and push-buttons can be programmed for various application-specific functions, providing immediate feedback or input.
• വൈദ്യുതി ഉപഭോഗം: For compatible boards, the SMPS (Switch Mode Power Supply) feature helps in reducing power consumption, especially in Run mode. Refer to the STM32Cube documentation for details on optimizing power.

5. പരിപാലനം

Proper care and maintenance will ensure the longevity and reliable operation of your development board:

• കൈകാര്യം ചെയ്യൽ: Always handle the board by its edges to avoid touching components, especially sensitive pins or integrated circuits.
• സംഭരണം: Store the board in a dry, anti-static environment, away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and humidity. Use the original packaging or an anti-static bag when not in use.
• വൃത്തിയാക്കൽ: If necessary, gently clean the board with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Avoid using liquids or abrasive cleaners. For stubborn dust, use compressed air.
• പവർ ഓഫ്: Always disconnect the power (USB cable) before connecting or disconnecting any shields or external components.
• ഘടക പരിശോധന: Periodically inspect the board for any loose connections, bent pins, or damaged components.

6. പ്രശ്‌നപരിഹാരം

If you encounter issues with your STM32 Nucleo-64 Development Board, consider the following troubleshooting steps:
