This article aims to describe the content of the software release included in the STM32CubeMP15 Package / STM32CubeMP1 Package (a.k.a., STM32CubeMP15 firmware / STM32CubeMP1 firmware), version v1.6.0.
1. Delivery purpose and scope[edit | edit source]
The STM32CubeMP15 Package is a software package running on Arm® Cortex®-M4 processors and is a fundamental part of the STM32MPU Embedded Software distribution.
This release includes:
- The STM32Cube HAL: STM32 abstraction layer embedded software ensuring maximized portability across the STM32 portfolio. HAL APIs are available for all peripherals.
- Low-layer APIs (LL APIs) offering a fast lightweight expert-oriented layer that is closer to the hardware than the HAL.
LL APIs are only available for a limited set of peripherals. - A consistent set of middleware components such as FreeRTOSTM and OpenAMP.
- All embedded software utilities delivered with a full set of examples.
It also includes:
- BSP for the STM32MP157x-EV1 Evaluation board
and the STM32MP157x-DK2 Discovery kit (button and LEDs only) - Multi-core components
- OpenAMP
- ResourceManager
- CoproSync
- Projects: several projects ( examples, applications and demonstration firmware) are implemented in different IDEs.
- STM32CubeIDE IDE delivered by ST
- All the STM32MP157C-DK2
and STM32MP157C-EV1 projects are available on STM32CubeIDE.
- All the STM32MP157C-DK2
- EWARM (version 8.32.3 and laters)
- Most of the STM32MP157C-DK2 projects are ported on EWARM.
- Most of the STM32MP157C-DK2
- MDK-ARM (Pack Keil®.STM32MP1xx_DFP.1.1.0.pack + MDK-ARM 5.27 and laters)
- Most of the STM32MP157C-DK2 projects are ported on MDK-ARM.
- Most of the STM32MP157C-DK2
- System Workbench for STM32 toolchain (SW4STM32): now deprecated
- This IDE is no longer supported by STMicroelectronics, the reference is now STM32CubeIDE.
- All the SW4STM32 projects are removed from this release but these projects were already ported on STM32CubeIDE.
- BSP for the STM32MP157x-EV1 Evaluation board

- RealView Microcontroller Development Kit (MDK-ARM) toolchain
7. Restrictions[edit | edit source]
OpenAMP compilation issue with MDK-ARM when the code is generated through the STM32CubeMx:
- To avoid compilation errors in OpenAMP when compiling in MDK-ARM IDE, disable the « Use MicroLIB » in « Target » tab.
8. Minor release updates[edit | edit source]
STMicroelectronics regularly delivers corrections through github® components. The corrections can be incorporated them into your developer package or distribution package.
Refer to STM32MPU Developer Package or How to switch to github® mode in Distribution Package.
