Development Environment
To compile, link and run applications on the STM32F103ZE Evaluation Board, you must install these products:
The RealView MDK-ARM which includes the μVision Debugger and provides several example programs for the STM32F103ZE Board.
The STM32F10x Software Library which provides a software foundation for the STM32F10x peripherals, it can be copied from CDROM we have tested.
The example programs and project files for the board are accompanied with CDROM, developed by Embest.
Software and Examples
Embest Provides plenty of software examples for this evaluation board, all in source code. These software examples can be debugged under the popular Keil MDK (Microcontroller Development Kit) environments, making practical use of the board's peripherals.
The CDROM includes several example programs that are configured for the Embest STM32F103ZE Board.
All examples are configured for two μVision targets at least:
Simulator - where the program runs in the software simulator.
FLASH - where the program runs from internal Flash located on the microcontroller.
All examples use the same file structure:
Abstract.txt contains a short description of the example.
STM32F10x.s contains the startup code for the microcontroller.
STM32_Init.[c,h] contain the initialization of the microcontroller's peripherals.
Example dependent source code.
Each example program is stored in a separate folder and can be copied to use under \Keil\ARM\BOARDS\Embest\STM32F103ZE\ along with project files that help you quickly build the project and run the program. All example projects and programs are available in accompanied CDROM.

About STMicroelectronics
STMicroelectronics is the world's fifth largest semiconductor company with net revenues of US$9.84 billion in 2008.
STMicroelectronics was created in 1987 by the merger of SGS Microelettronica of Italy and Thomson Semiconducteurs of France. Since its formation, ST has grown faster than the semiconductor industry as a whole and it has been one of the world's Top Five semiconductor suppliers since 2005.
The group totals over 50,000 employees, 16 advanced research and development units, 39 design and application centers, 15 main manufacturing sites and 78 sales offices in 36 countries.
Corporate Headquarters, as well as the headquarters for Europe, the Middle East and Africa, (EMEA) are in Geneva. The Company's U.S. Headquarters are in Carrollton (Texas); those for Asia-Pacific are based in Singapore and Japanese operations are headquartered in Tokyo. The “Greater China” region, which includes Hong Kong, China and Taiwan, is headquartered in Shanghai.
ST has a worldwide network of front-end (wafer fabrication) and back-end (assembly and test and packaging) plants. ST's principal wafer fabs are presently located in Agrate Brianza and Catania (Italy), Crolles, Rousset and Tours (France), and Singapore. The wafer fabs are complemented by highly efficient assembly and test facilities located in China, Malaysia, Malta, Morocco and Singapore.
Product Portfolio
ST aims to be the leader in multimedia convergence and power applications, offering one of the world's broadest product portfolios, including application-specific products containing a large proprietary IP (Intellectual Property) content and multi-segment products that range from discrete devices to high-performance microcontrollers, secure smart card chips and MEMS devices.
To maximize the benefit of scale that is becoming increasingly important in some semiconductor markets, ST completed the creation of two joint ventures in 2008. In the memory field, ST, Intel and Francisco Partners formed a new company, Numonyx, dedicated to providing non-volatile memory solutions, including NAND and NOR Flash memories as well as MCP (multi-chip package) memory solutions, for a wide variety of consumer and industrial applications. ST holds a 48% share in Numonyx.
ST has also been very active in the wireless arena. In mid 2008, ST and NXP combined their key wireless semiconductor operations in a joint venture, in which ST held 80%. In February 2009, ST acquired the minority stake from NXP and merged its wireless operations with Ericsson Mobile Platforms to create ST-Ericsson, a 50/50 joint venture focusing on semiconductors and platforms for mobile applications.
