How to start with STM32CubeMX STiRoT Boot path on STM32H57S

Revision as of 16:02, 7 March 2024 by Registered User

Target description

The purpose of this article is to provide step-by-step instructions on how to configure a boot path.
The example below demonstrates how to configure and provision a boot path for an STiRoT (ST immutable Root of Trust) and generate an application code using CubeMx.
The initially generated code is modified to blink the green led embedded on the board.

Read Secure Boot STM32H7RS How to Introduction before starting the practical example described below.

For more technical details which may be useful to know before getting started, check out the following articles:

The figure below shows the possible bootpaths for the STM32H7RS.
The STiRoT is only supported for the STM32H7S, since it requires the Cryp hardware accelerator not supported on the STM32H7R.

The example described in this article uses the boot path indicated in bellows figure.

Prerequisites
To execute the example described below, you need an STM32H57S-DK discovery board:

Figure 2 STM32H7S DK MB1736

You'll also need the following tools:

  • STM32CubeMX_6.11.0 or later
  • IAR Embedded Workbench rev 9.20.1 or later
  • STM32CubeProgrammer rev 2.16.0

Note:

  • STM32 Trusted Package Creator (TPC) is automatically installed during the STM32CubeMX installation. This TPC version is dedicated to STM32CubeMX and installed in the STM32CubeMX/utilities folder.
  • The latest STM32Cube_FW revision is installed through STM32CubeMX (see appendix).
