Clocks and startup
System clock selection is performed on startup, however the internal RC 8 MHz oscillator is
selected as default CPU clock on reset. An external 4-16 MHz clock can be selected, in
which case it is monitored for failure. If failure is detected, the system automatically switches
back to the internal RC oscillator. A software interrupt is generated if enabled. Similarly, full
interrupt management of the PLL clock entry is available when necessary (for example with
failure of an indirectly used external oscillator).
Several prescalers allow the configuration of the AHB frequency, the high speed APB
(APB2) and the low speed APB (APB1) domains. The maximum frequency of the AHB and
the high speed APB domains is 72 MHz. The maximum allowed frequency of the low speed
APB domain is 36 MHz. See Figure 2 for details on the clock tree.
Boot modes
At startup, boot pins are used to select one of three boot options:
● Boot from user Flash: you have an option to boot from any of two memory banks. By
default, boot from Flash memory bank 1 is selected. You can choose to boot from Flash
memory bank 2 by setting a bit in the option bytes.
● Boot from system memory
● Boot from embedded SRAM
The boot loader is located in system memory. It is used to reprogram the Flash memory by
using USART1.
Power supply schemes
● V_DD = 2.0 to 3.6 V: external power supply for I/Os and the internal regulator.
Provided externally through V_DD pins.
● V_SSA, V_DDA = 2.0 to 3.6 V: external analog power supplies for ADC, DAC, Reset blocks,
RCs and PLL (minimum voltage to be applied to VDDA is 2.4 V when the ADC or DAC
is used). V_DDA and V_SSA must be connected to V_DD and V_SS, respectively.
● V_BAT = 1.8 to 3.6 V: power supply for RTC, external clock 32 kHz oscillator and backup
registers (through power switch) when V_DD is not present.
For more details on how to connect power pins, refer to Figure 10: Power supply scheme.
Power supply supervisor
The device has an integrated power-on reset (POR)/power-down reset (PDR) circuitry. It is
always active, and ensures proper operation starting from/down to 2 V. The device remains
in reset mode when V_DD is below a specified threshold, V_POR/PDR, without the need for an
external reset circuit.
The device features an embedded programmable voltage detector (PVD) that monitors the
V_DD/V_DDA power supply and compares it to the V_PVD threshold. An interrupt can be
generated when V_DD/V_DDA drops below the V_PVD threshold and/or when V_DD/V_DDA is higher
than the V_PVD threshold. The interrupt service routine can then generate a warning
message and/or put the MCU into a safe state. The PVD is enabled by software. Refer to
Table 12: Embedded reset and power control block characteristics for the values of
V_POR/PDR and V_PVD.
