Embedded software package for STM32MP1 MPUs accelerates Linux OS deployment

STM32MP1Starter package for the STM32MP1 microprocessors from STMicroelectronics provides a comprehensive board support package that is paired with evaluation boards. ST’s ready-made Linux® distribution is backed by firmware examples and a programming tool.

STMicroelectronics has boosted support for its STM32MP1 series of low-cost embedded microprocessors with the introduction of the STM32MP1Starter package, which provides a ready-made set of operating system (OS) software and tools.  

 

At the heart of the STM32MP1Starter board support package are binaries for the proven OpenSTLinux Distribution (STM32MP1Distrib), a Linux® operating system implementation which is optimized for the STM32MP1 processors. The STM32MP1Starter also includes one or more firmware examples for the STM32CubeMP1 software package, and the STM32CubeProg tool to install this image on STM32MP15xx-EV1 evaluation boards. 

 

Features 

  • Boot chain based on TF-A and U-boot 
  • OP-TEE secure OS running on the Arm® Cortex®-A core in secure mode 
  • Linux kernel running on the Arm Cortex-A core in non-secure mode 

 

Applications 

  • Home gateways 
  • Industrial equipment: 
  • Factory automation equipment  
  • Industrial HMIs 
  • Industrial gateways 
  • Robotics 

Development kit

Part Numbers: STM32MP157F-EV1, STM32MP157D-EV1

The STM32MP157D-EV1 and STM32MP157F-EV1 evaluation boards are full-featured demonstration and development platforms for the 800 MHz dual Arm® Cortex®-A7 core-based STM32MP157 embedded microprocessors. The MPUs also include an Arm Cortex-M4 microcontroller core. The boards provide the ideal environment for experimenting with application ideas using the OpenSTLinux Distribution operating system software for the main processor, and STM32CubeMP1 software for the co-processor.
