STM32F103C8 Blue Pill Board BSP Introduction
Onboard Resources
The "blue pill" is a STM32F103 based development board with Cortex-M3 ARM CPU that runs at 72 MHz, 20 kB of RAM and 64 or 128 kB of flash memory. The microcontroller (MCU) has USB port, two serial ports, 16 bit PWM pins and 12 bit ADC pins. It runs at 3.3V, but some of its pins are 5V tolerant.

Execution Instruction
Quickly Get Started
This BSP provides MDK4, MDK5, and IAR projects for developers and it supports the GCC development environment. Here's an example of the MDK5 development environment, to introduce how to run the system.
Hardware connection
-
Use a Type-A to Mini-B cable to connect the development board to the PC and turn on the power switch.
-
Use FTDI adapter(USB to UART) to connect the BluePill board's PA9(Tx) and PA10(Rx) pins.
Compile and Download
Double-click the project.uvprojx
file, to open the MDK5 project, compile and download the program to the board.
Running Results
After the program is successfully downloaded, the system runs automatically. Observe the running results of the LED on the development board, and you will see LED is flashing periodically.
The USB virtual COM port connects to USART1(PA9-Tx, PA10-Rx) by default, and when the corresponding serial port (115200-8-1-N) is opened in the terminal tool, the output information of RT-Thread can be seen when the device is reset:

Advanced Features
This BSP only enables GPIO and USART2 by default. If you need more advanced features such as SPI, I2C, you need to configure the BSP with RT-Thread ENV tools , as follows:
- Open the ENV tool under the specific BSP folder;
- Enter
menuconfig
command to configure the project, then save and exit; - Enter
pkgs --update
command to update the package; - Enter
scons --target=mdk4/mdk5/iar
command to regenerate the project.
