1 Article purpose[edit source]

This article provides an overview of STM32MP157X_DKX Discovery kits. It briefly describes:

  • how to assemble the different elements provided in the commercial box
  • what are the different components present on the board
  • how to connect the board to external material
  • how to configure the board for boot
  • what are the configurations of the connector pins


This article is only an introduction to the STM32MP157X_DKX Discovery kits. Detailed information can be found in the STM32MP157X-DKX user manual.

2 Board assembly[edit source]

The STM32MP15 Discovery kit packages (STM32MP157X-DKX) include the items listed below.

Please note that;

  • the STM32MP157X-DK1 Discovery kit neither includes the "WLAN + Bluetooth" component (muRata LBEE5KL1DX), nor the MB1407 daughterboard DSI display
  • the STM32MP157X-DK2 Discovery kit includes the "WLAN + Bluetooth" component (muRata LBEE5KL1DX), and the MB1407 daughterboard DSI display

The different variants corresponding to STM32MP157X-DK1/2 are explained by the part number codification.

6.3 User buttons and LEDs[edit source]

The GPIO assignments for the user buttons and LEDs are described in the following table. Refer to LEDs and buttons on STM32 MPU boards article to get information on the functional mapping for each one.

GPIO for user buttons and LEDs
LED color and label Button label GPIO
Green LD5 (*) USER1 (*) PA14
Red LD6 (*) USER2 (*) PA13
Orange LD7 - PH7
Template:Blue LD8 - PD11
Warning white.png Warning
(*) Both a LED and a button are connected to the same GPIO, with inverted logic for the LED control (so the LED is switched on when the GPIO output is set to low).
