๐ฅ Download Now

๐ Description
This project allows you to control an LED on an STM32F446RET6 microcontroller. Using STM32 HAL (Hardware Abstraction Layer), you can easily understand how embedded systems work. The code is beginner-friendly, making it perfect for anyone new to coding.
๐ Getting Started
To start using this project, you will need to download and install the necessary tools on your computer.
๐ ๏ธ System Requirements
- Operating System: Windows, macOS, or Linux
- Development Environment: STM32CubeIDE (you can download it from the STMicroelectronics website)
- STM32F446RET6 Microcontroller: Ensure you have the device for testing

- Select the folder and click โFinish.โ
๐ฅ๏ธ Compiling and Uploading Code
To get your LED blinking, you will need to compile and upload the code.
- Connect your STM32F446RET6 board to your computer using a USB cable.
- In STM32CubeIDE, click on the โBuildโ button to compile the code.
- After a successful build, click on the โRunโ button to upload the code to your microcontroller.
๐ก Understanding the Code
The core function of this code is located in main.c. It utilizes a timer interrupt to create a delay. This controls how often the LED turns on and off.
Key Functions:
HAL_GPIO_WritePin(): This function turns the LED on or off.
HAL_Delay(): This function creates the delay between the LED blinking.
โ๏ธ Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues, consider the following:
- Connection Problems: Ensure the USB cable is properly connected.
- IDE Errors: Verify that STM32CubeIDE is correctly set up with the SAMD configuration.
- Code Issues: If the code does not compile, check for any typos in the files you edited.
