Description
The STM32 Nucleo-144 boards (NUCLEO-L496ZG, NUCLEO-L496ZG-P and NUCLEO-L4R5ZI) is an easy way to provide an ultra-low power features and flexible way for developers to handle new conceptual design and its fast to design prototypes with the STM32 microcontroller. Developers get freedom to directly play with the combinations of performance, power consumption, and many more features.
To expand the functionality, developers make use of ST Zio connector, which extends the Arduino Uno V3 connectivity and ST morpho headers allows it to expand the functionality of the STM32 Nucleo-144 open development platform with a choice of specialized shields. The STM32 Nucleo-144 board does not require any separate probe as it integrates the ST-LINK/V2-1 debugger/programmer. STM32Cube package offers the great resources for the STM32 comprehensive free software libraries and available examples for STM32 Nucleo-144 boards.
