Core407Z - a startup kit with STM32F407ZET6 microcontroller

Description

A startup kit with a microcontroller from the STM32F407ZE family (ARM Cortex-M4 core). It is equipped with the basic components needed to run the chip, as well as configuration switches and a reset button. The user has all the pins of the chip routed out to pin connectors with a raster of 2.54 mm. It is powered via a mini-USB connector and programmed via a JTAG or SWD interface. No programmer is included on the board, so the kit requires an external programmer/debugger. Full documentation is available on the product page.
