The ST7 In-Circuit Communication Kit for Flash microcontrollers
(ST7 Flash STICK) is an easy-to-use tool that you can build
yourself and that allows in-circuit debugging and programming
a complete range of ST7 Flash microcontrollers on an application
board via an ST standard 10-pin In-Circuit Communication (ICC)
connection. For in-circuit programming the ST7 Flash STICK
can be use with ST Visual
Programmer (STVP), the programming
interface from ST. For in-circuit debugging, it is driven
from ST Visual
Develop (STVD 3.4.0 or later versions) –
the popular, free integrated development environment from
ST.
The ST7 Flash STICK takes advantage of the ICC protocol developed
by STMicroelectronics, which allows development tools to communicate
with on-chip resources of the ST7 through a limited number
of signals.
In addition, developers can use the ST7 Flash STICK in combination
with the ST7 Socket Boards (ST7SBxxx)
for single-site, on-socket programming of ST7 Flash microcontrollers.
