Starting STM8 Microcontrollers

Analog Watchdog (AWD)
The AWD is one additional feature that most microcontrollers in the market do not have. AWD is more like a comparator but with the exception that we can set both the upper and lower limits of this comparator as per our requirement unlike fixed levels in other micros. The region between the upper and lower limits is called guarded zone. Beyond the boundaries of the guarded zone, the AWD unit kicks off.
The AWD unit is very useful in situations where we need to monitor the output of a sensor for example and take quick actions. For instance, consider a temperature controller. We would want the controller to turn on a heater should temperature fall below some level and turn it off when temperature rises to some high value without complex calculations and constant monitoring in our application firmware. In other microcontrollers, we would have accomplished this simple task using conditional IF-ELSE statements.

Explanation
The code for the AWD example is just as the one demonstrated in the ADC example. However, this time the ADC channel is channel 1 (PB1). Setting up the AWD is simple. We just need to set the limits, specify which channel to be monitored and enable the AWD unit.
ADC1_AWDChannelConfig(ADC1_CHANNEL_1, ENABLE);
ADC1_SetHighThreshold(600);
ADC1_SetLowThreshold(200);
Here we have set 600 and 200 ADC counts as upper and lower limits respectively.
In the main function, we are simply polling AWD flag. If an AWD (beyond boundary zone) event on PB1 pin occurs the LED on PD0 starts flashing. If PB1 senses voltage between 200 and 600 ADC counts, the LED is turned off, indicating guarded zone.
if(ADC1_GetFlagStatus(ADC1_FLAG_AWD))
{
GPIO_WriteReverse(GPIOD, GPIO_PIN_0);
ADC1_ClearFlag(ADC1_FLAG_AWD);
}
else
{
GPIO_WriteHigh(GPIOD, GPIO_PIN_0);
}

Hi, just wanted to ask where did you get the documentation for the SPL. The pic in your GPIO tutorial, where did you get that from ?
Got the documentation , thankz for your tutorial , it really helped a lot.
Hi sir, I’m using stvp + cosmic for almost a year. Recently as I compile there happens errors as follows: flexLM features has expired. I think my cosmic licence has expired. Thus I want to know what can I do? Can I get licence like the first time?
Yeah just like first time you have to reacquire a new license from Cosmic and reapply….
Excuse me shawon, I’m a bjt confused. I should resend the “CM8_license.txt” file to cosmic and how can I reapply the new license?should I replace it with previous license? I couldn’t find the previous license file. I don’t know where did I copy it…
First go to this location of your PC: “C:\Program Files (x86)\COSMIC\FSE_Compilers\CXSTM8″…. Run LmregFSE.exe file and fill in the infos…. You send them the generated info via email and they will send you a new license file…. Copy-paste and overwrite the license file they will send here: “C:\Program Files (x86)\COSMIC\FSE_Compilers\CXSTM8\License”…. Your license would then be renewed for another year…. Simple….
I sent it for cosmic but the problem is that I don’t remember where I copied license.lic. It’s not in “C:\Program Files (x86)\COSMIC\FSE_Compilers\CXSTM8\License” I must overwrite the new license. how can I find previous license location?
It should be “C:\Program Files (x86)\COSMIC\FSE_Compilers\CXSTM8\License” if your Windows is 64-bit edition or “C:\Program Files\COSMIC\FSE_Compilers\CXSTM8\License” if your Windows is 32-bit edition….

Shawon I’ve really progressed with your masterly article. I have a question; in “interupt.vector.c” you said we should comment the “@far @interrupt void nonHandledInterrupt(void)” ( in above the interrupt.vextor.c file ) but as I comment this function I got 33 errors for 33 nonHandeledInterupts… so I didn’t do that and I’ve never had an issue yet. I want to know does it make a problem? Is it necessary to comment that function??
No not mandatory…. In my case, it was needed to be so….
Hi shawon☺ , I used an External interupt for connecting a switch to micro. The problem is that when I push the button the ISR repeated many times but I want my ISR run only a time. Can you help me please??
Firstly did you use pull-up and glitch removal capacitor across the switching point? Secondly, you can remove this repetitive interrupt by disabling external/global interrupt once an interrupt has been detected and reenabling external/global after processing the ISR….
Thanks a lot shawon. I’ve tried to achieve real time. For do that I used 11.0592 Mhz crystal and timer2 on prescaler 1024, timer period: 108. With this regulation the interupt must occurs every 1ms. But it doesn’t work probably . In other words it has 1 second difference in a minute. What’s the problem?
With these values you should be getting 10ms and certainly not 1ms…. (1024 x 108) / 11059200 = 0.01
Yes you right. I want to make a stop watch so it’s the right value for me. (.01 × 100 = 1) . It’s 1 sec behind the real time every 2 minutes…
That’s because it is not based on a real time clock (RTC)…. It is rather a rudimentary RTC and won’t be accurate enough as a stopwatch….
So there isn’t any way to do that?? What about timer 4? Another type of stm8s micro?
You can use a crystal resonator instead of quartz crystal or dedicated timer/counter chip for timing….
Hi shawon, I had a look at register map and I realised that the reset value of ARR register is 0xFF provided other control register reset value are 0x00, thus I’ve putted timer period on 107 and it’s been extremely precise. What do u think about it?

Hi Gents,
I’m using the IAR environment and tried to use the delay feature from these tutorials. Unfortunately I
meet an issue with the dealay function.
I have imported both .c & .h files to the project and tried to use the delay_ms(); but during compilation I see error like below:
“Error[Li005]: no definition for “_asm” [referenced from D:\…\Debug\Obj\stm8s_delay.o].
I have no idea what can be wrong, maybe I missed add some definitions, perhaps someone could explain it to me?
Thank U in advance
I have no idea about IAR compiler…. Can’t help in this regard….
I see
Thanks for response
Hey guys;
Could you help me please, I’ve copied the Tmer Interupt(TIM4) project, but when I built it, there was an error:
“@svlreg missing for function f_TIM4_UPD_IRQHandler”
I just recomment the top of “interupt_vector.c” because I had 33 errors.
It should work as I have shown…. Somewhere you are doing something wrong….
Maybe, why STVD doesn’t permit me to write in libraries, I have to run them with Subline text and make changes there. Afterthat I can do it in STVD.
Hey shawon; when I use alphanumeric LCD’s function in my ISR that error apears.what should I do?
You should keep ISR as short as possible…. You must try to avoid external function calls in ISR….
What a pity! I want to use external functions especialy LCD when an event occurs. Is’t there any way to do it??
Use software-based flags that get triggered on interrupt…. In the main, check the flags and update the display…. Alternative use a timer to periodically check the flags and then update the display….

Seems like the compiler doesn’t know the location of the source and header files…. Go to Project >> Settings…. Select Debug/Release and check the debug tab there…. Locations for the header and source files should be shown there or else you’ll get this sort of error….
yes, sir as per your video i did the process , but previously i use st’s standard peripheral library “template” to check GPIO ready project. in st’s standard library ” Example project” compiled in debug mode but in release mode it gives above error. then i follow your video process and error gone hex.file generated in debug and release mode too. my request is to make separate page for stm8 and explain the st’s standard peripheral library and your project list for stm8 only with separate section.Thanks.
Good to know that your issue is fixed…. But I didn’t understand your request on standard peripheral library….

Hi SHAWON SHAHRYIAR,
I have been working through your articles and trying to understand as much as possible. I am currently looking at the AWU,
I have brought in the project, compiled and built with no errors.
However when running the program the CPU goes into the halt mode, and never Auto wakes up!
Is there some more work that has to be done in the interrupt side of things? Does the project need the ITC.c and ITC.h files and some adjustments in there?
Could I also have the delay.c and delay .h files please.
Andy.
By the way, I am using the STM8SVL Discovery with the 003K processor on it also so all hardware is identical.
No, nothing needs to be done in the interrupt “itc” files but you need to add some lines in the “it” interrupt files:
in the “it” header file add the following line:
@far @interrupt void AWU_trigger_IRQHandler(void);and in the “it” source file add the following lines:
void AWU_trigger_IRQHandler(void){
AWU_GetFlagStatus();
}
Change the interrupt vector file as shown below:
#include "stm8s_it.h"typedef void @far (*interrupt_handler_t)(void);
struct interrupt_vector {
unsigned char interrupt_instruction;
interrupt_handler_t interrupt_handler;
};
//@far @interrupt void NonHandledInterrupt (void)
//{
/* in order to detect unexpected events during development,
it is recommended to set a breakpoint on the following instruction
*/
// return;
//}
extern void _stext(); /* startup routine */
struct interrupt_vector const _vectab[] = {
{0x82, (interrupt_handler_t)_stext}, /* reset */
{0x82, NonHandledInterrupt}, /* trap */
{0x82, NonHandledInterrupt}, /* irq0 */
{0x82, AWU_trigger_IRQHandler}, /* irq1 */

{0x82, NonHandledInterrupt}, /* irq27 */
{0x82, NonHandledInterrupt}, /* irq28 */
{0x82, NonHandledInterrupt}, /* irq29 */
};
Sorry for the trouble…. I probably forgot to state these in the code and explanation segments…. Will be updating the post…. Thanks for this catch….
Hey,
Grateful for the tutorial! Nice work.
I tried this section of your tutorial and got 33 errors after building:
it was due to commenting of :
@far @interrupt_handler_t void NonHandledInterrupt (void)
{
return;
}
because these were used in the interrupt vector struct again. I uncommented those lines and got one error:
“unknown space: interrupt_handler_t”
what should i do now?
please help me!
Thanks alot.
You are getting this error for which interrupt example?
Hi,
Firstly, thanks alot for your tutorials. It helps alot for beginners in STM8S because there are not much documentation for it.
Secondly, I have been trying to implement the Timer interrupt tutorial(pg. 19) and wrote the code as instructed, however I am getting this error of “invalid pointer initializer” when I added the interrupt
{0x82, (interrupt_handler_t)TIM2_IRQHandler}, /* irq13 */
in the interrupt_vector.c file as was instructed in your tutorial. Can you please help me around this issue? What am I doing wrong here? Any suggestions would be of great help.
Hi
Thank you for the post,
I ve used your code for another sensor and noticed that in the i2c read routine you’ve forgot to send a stop to release the clock line. Modification is as follows
..
Regards
unsigned int BH1750_read_word(void)
{
unsigned long value = 0x0000;
unsigned char num_of_bytes = 0x02;
unsigned char bytes[2] = {0x00, 0x00};
while(I2C_GetFlagStatus(I2C_FLAG_BUSBUSY));
I2C_GenerateSTART(ENABLE);
while(!I2C_CheckEvent(I2C_EVENT_MASTER_MODE_SELECT));
I2C_Send7bitAddress(BH1750_addr, I2C_DIRECTION_RX);
while(!I2C_CheckEvent(I2C_EVENT_MASTER_RECEIVER_MODE_SELECTED));
while(num_of_bytes)
{
if(I2C_CheckEvent(I2C_EVENT_MASTER_BYTE_RECEIVED))
{
if(num_of_bytes == 0)
{
I2C_AcknowledgeConfig(I2C_ACK_NONE);
I2C_GenerateSTOP(ENABLE);
}
bytes[(num_of_bytes – 1)] = I2C_ReceiveData();
num_of_bytes–;
}
};
/// the following line should be added
I2C_GenerateSTOP(ENABLE);
….
}
Noted with thanks….
I reviews the code and found that I added the I2C stop command here:
if(num_of_bytes == 0)
{
I2C_AcknowledgeConfig(I2C_ACK_NONE);
I2C_GenerateSTOP(ENABLE);
}
So there is no need to add stop command after the loop….
Hi
You are right, it was due to my modification.
Anyway I just wanted to thank you for the postings.

Why are you adding ADC2 header and source files? Are you not using STM8S003?
stm8s_conf.h this file i am added from ADC2
Add only the hardware files that your target chips supports…. For example, you cannot add ADC2 for STM8S003…. This is so as STM8S003 doesn’t have these hardware blocks…. Likewise if you are using STM8S207, you cannot add UART2 files for the same reason…. If you don’t add required files then you will get errors…. You’ll also get errors if you add files that are not applicable for your target MCU….
Hi
I am using stm8s003f3 pin out board and with this code I am just testing output at micro controller pin 2 i.e. TX
I am testing this using an oscilloscope.
but not able to get any output
Can you please help?
Thanks
Did you recompile the code for your target chip?
Yes I did.
But Not getting expected output
Apart from the scope is there anything else connected with this pin? It should work as I have shown…. Can you try with a different board?
hi
nothing else is connected to that pin. yes I did try another board. but the results are same.
TX pin is just going HIGH.
hi
In STVD , STM8S003F3 MCU is not available but I am using this same so from the MCU selection list I have selected STM8S003F3P.
So does it make any difference??
no it doesn’t….
Hi Shawon
Any advice on how to code the Program to get the STM8s talking to the max31855?
This is causing me some problems.
JP
Hello
I have followed the code as per the explanation.
but I’m getting garbage values on serial port.
Can you suggest any debugging steps??
Thanks in advanced.
PS: Great tutorial. It’s helping me a lot.
1. Check wiring for loose connections….
2. Use a stable and noise-free power source like a battery-bank to power up the board…. Noise from PC port may cause unwanted issues….
3. Use CP2102 or FT232-based USB-TTL converter…. Don’t use PL2303-based ones because most are clones or fakes….
4. Use a short USB cable….
5. Use external pull-up resistors for both TX and RX pins….
6. Try with another board if these don’t solve the issue…. It should not behave as you are saying because the code has no issues….
Serial receiving program is not working
It should be unless something else is connected to the receive pin…. Please tell me about your hardware setup….
Hello sir
Do you tell me how generate pwm in pin no. B5 & B5
in Stm8 board
Which STM8 chip? Because different chips have different pin mapping and sometimes there are alternative pins for such purposes…. Check with STM8CubeMX if that pin is available for that purpose….
i have done code for multi channel adc but its not working ????
when i use single channel adc its working properly…………
Which channels are you using?
Hello guys
here i’m again for ask your help. I wrote a very easy program but when i try to send to stm8 the light programmer give me this error :
Programming…
PROGRAM MEMORY:

Error: Device not recognized !
some idea ?
Thank you
Sergio
Unlock it first with light programmer…. It seems you locked it probably….
First thank you so much for this wonderful tutorial, i’m new with STM8 i follow all you steps but i still have a problem and here i’m please can you help me this is the error message.
Thank you

imran.vectorindia@gmail.com
I’m using the same software you are using – the latest one out there…. and so someone sending it has no meaning…. I suggest that you uninstall it and give it fresh retry, following all the steps carefully…. No one can help you with licensing issue unless to do it correctly….
hi geting poroblem while click on programmer ten my softare automatically close tab
The latest version of STVD has this issue…. I’m also facing this issue and so are many other like us…. Hope STM fixes this issue fast…. For now use STVD for coding and STVP for flashing….
thanks sir
hi sir…
i getting problem for license configured……………. at compile time getting error like that…………. plz help out

Did you follow the procedure as I showed?
YES SIR
helo…we hav stm8svl discovery..i need embedded c program for the glowing of led,connecting ir receiver and also powersupply…for connecting these things i need code can u please guide me
Thanks for this article..
I am looking for microsd card interface with STM8s discovery board. can you please provide the tutorial for microsd card?
It is on my plan but not possible recently….
In relation to disabling unused peripheral clocks as suggested by you:
I found the following list of peripherals in the STM8S105 Discovery Board: Advanced control timer (TIM1), General-purpose timers (TIM2 and TIM3), Basic timer (TIM4), SPI, I2C, UART2, Window WDG, Independent WDG, ADC1,
AWU timer, Beeper.
Is this all?
I could not find the clock peripheral configuration function for Window WDG, Independent WDG, Beeper in the Standard Peripheral Library.
Is it not required?
P.S. I am new to MCU programming with a little experience on Arduino. So please forgive me if the question is foolish.
1. STM8S003K3 Discovery – the one I use for the blog is different from STM8S105…. They have different peripherals and so there will be differences in peripheral clocks…. Please check the device datasheet/STM8CubeMX for available hardware….
2. WWDG and IWDG are set in option bytes and they don’t use peripheral/CPU clock…. Their oscillator is separate…. Due to these they don’t have clock configurations like other peripherals….
P.S: No question is a noob question…. every question is allowed no matter how silly it may look….
Thank You
Hi please someone tel me where can i find stm8s_delay.h and stm8s_delay.c
Thanks
Check the inc and src folders….
There is not . Could you send me please if you have it.
Aminassadi.og@gmail.com
mail sent….
please, send me too the library delay
Hi , please someone tel me . Where can i find stm8s_delay.h and stm8s_delay.c
Thanks ..
i am using stms003f3p6 controller..i have done as u told exactly but tim1 input capture is not displaying any value …according to your article it should display 10…i dont have any errors everything is fine…pulse on tim2 is ok ..it is coming as u said…but capture not working..please help me …thank you…
In STM8S003F3P6, TIM1 input capture CH1 is located in PC6 instead of PC1. Did you check this out?
i changed that too..but no response tim2- 50hz as u said..but tim1 ch1 pc6 not capturing …still 000000 on lcd..
Send me your full code so that I can check and debug it….
Hi Sir,
i have just follwed your instruction provied in yout tutorial in main.c
#include “stm8s.h”
main()
{
while (1);
}
This error comes, can you please check why this error come, i am new and learn the controller programming.
main.c:
The command: “cxstm8 -i”d:\other datasheet\new folder\lib\stm8s_stdperiph_lib\libraries\stm8s_stdperiph_driver\inc” +debug -pxp -no -l +mods0 -pp -i”C:\Program Files (x86)\COSMIC\FSE_Compilers\CXSTM8\Hstm8″ -clDebug\ -coDebug\ main.c ” has failed, the returned value is: 1
exit code=1.
main.o – 2 error(s), 0 warning(s)
Thanks,
Perhaps you should recheck according to this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqCuSVjevrY
Hi there, i solve the previous ADC problem. Anyway, u make some good tutorial on stm8 chips. Nice work
What was causing that issue? How did you solve it?
because i put all these
ADC_DeInit(ADC1);
ADC_SamplingTimeConfig(ADC1, ADC_Group_SlowChannels, ADC_SamplingTime_4Cycles);
ADC_SchmittTriggerConfig(ADC1, ADC_Channel_7, DISABLE);
ADC_ChannelCmd(ADC1, ADC_Channel_7, ENABLE);
ADC_Init(ADC1, ADC_ConversionMode_Continuous, ADC_Resolution_12Bit, ADC_Prescaler_1);
ADC_Cmd(ADC1, ENABLE);
ADC_ExternalTrigConfig(ADC1, ADC_ExtEventSelection_None, ADC_ExtTRGSensitivity_All);
in ‘while(1)’. It keeps looping.
Once i put it before ‘while (1)’, it becomes normal.
lol, sorry im noob
Hi there, thanks for sharing. I learn alot thru your example, but I have encounter a problem with adc. Im currently using stm8l151k4t6. I wanna use the pin D7 as to read the voltage from my battery and monitor it (display on LCD). Can u please check where it goes wrong on my code?
ADC_DeInit(ADC1);
ADC_SamplingTimeConfig(ADC1, ADC_Group_SlowChannels, ADC_SamplingTime_4Cycles);
ADC_SchmittTriggerConfig(ADC1, ADC_Channel_7, DISABLE);
ADC_ChannelCmd(ADC1, ADC_Channel_7, ENABLE);
ADC_Init(ADC1, ADC_ConversionMode_Continuous, ADC_Resolution_12Bit, ADC_Prescaler_1);
ADC_Cmd(ADC1, ENABLE);
ADC_ExternalTrigConfig(ADC1, ADC_ExtEventSelection_None, ADC_ExtTRGSensitivity_All);
ADC_SoftwareStartConv(ADC1);
while(!ADC_GetFlagStatus(ADC1, ADC_FLAG_EOC));
battery = ADC_GetConversionValue(ADC1);
The adc library is here. Really appreciate your help

What error or issue are you encountering?
Thanks.
LOL my bad, i did not mentioned what error. Basically the lcd is still displaying 4095 which is (2^12)-1, no matter what my voltage is at. I think the pin d7 is not read by the microcontroller
That’s because you are not clearing ADC conversion complete flag after reading the ADC data….
actually i did. U mean this line ?
ADC_ClearFlag(ADC1, ADC_FLAG_EOC);
It is still the same. I not really sure why. Can ADC1 works with several input ?
Did you enable the clock for the ADC module?
CLK_PeripheralClockConfig(CLK_PERIPHERAL_ADC1, ENABLE);
yes I did enable the clock for the ADC module too. Basically i noticed that the pin is like not read by the microC. It just display the bits that I set. when I put 8 bit, it shows 255, 10 bits it show 1023 and so on.
hi shawon great tutorials it would be nice too if you covered the coide compiler for arm it’s a good free compiler
I have plans to cover STM32 with STM32 System Workbench and STM32CubeMX….
hi shawon thanks for your response and support it turns out that my problem was a license issue I stupidly thought i use one license on multiple pc’s I used the license for a particular computer for mine that’s why I’ve been having compilation issues you have to use the license file stm8 sends you that is generated by your own pc else it won’t compile it’ll jus kip throwing you errors
It seems that you didn’t follow my instructions completely…. I found some issues:
1. You have included header and source files of ADC2, CAN, UART2, etc which are unavailable in STM8S103…. Add only files for the peripherals available in your target MCU…. Exclude the rest….
2. You have not included stm8s_delay header and source files…. Either disable it from stm8s_conf.h header file if you are not going to use it or add both the header and the source files for it in your project….
Resolve these and you are good to go….
Thanks….
I haven’t compiled any of the examples yet I just tried to compile the main source file just for test purpose n it just keeps showing me the same errors
yes the comic compiler was installed properly i even received a license file from my mail with the instructions to copy the license file to the license folder in the install directory if you fail to do this it will keep popping up for you to put in the license file. iincluded all the source files and header files as instructed i am working with the cheap stm8s103f i uncommented the stm8s103f in the stm8.h header file as you instructed and just to compile the main file it just throws me errors
Send me your project files and folder…. Let me see what’s going on….
no I just followed your instructions I just compiled it after setup i did not write any code yet just compiled the default main file
Need more details….
1. The version of STVD and Cosmic
2. Which example is giving this issue?
3. The chip you are using if it other than STM8S003
4. Have you tried to compile something else other than my examples?
5. Are the paths to libraries and other folders properly added?
6. Is the Cosmic compiler registered properly?
it throws this line The command: “cxstm8 -iinc +debug -pxp -no -l +mods0 -pp -i”C:\Program Files (x86)\COSMIC\FSE_Compilers\Hstm8″ -clDebug\ -coDebug\ main.c ” has failed, the returned value is: 1
exit code=1.
It is because you are making a simple silly mistake like a missing argument or semicolon somewhere in your code….
hi I’m having compilation issues when I compile it just throws me error about comic compiler located in the program file ialso excluded unwanted header files but my problems still weren’t solved
hi thanks for the tutorials but i am having compiler error issues even when I remove unnecessary header files it say comic compiler error
Hi. What does the error state?
I am new to STM8S003k3 Discovery board.I have done UART communication using STM standard peripheral library example. Now I want to define any other GPIO pin for UART communication. Is it possible to use d0 and d1 pin for the UART communication? If yes, then please let me know how?
It is possible to use any GPIO for UART communication using software UART. You’ll need to take care of character timings on your own using a timer.
thank you very much for this article!
Thank you for your time and effort.
Good job bro
Thank you for this exceptionally comprehensive article, much appreciated
Rando!
You are welcome….
