Power supply
General description
By default, the STM32WBA52CG embedded on this Nucleo board is supplied by 3V3 but the board proposes a lot of possibilities to supply the module. In fact, at first, the 3V3 can come from ST-LINK USB, ARDUINO®, or ST morpho connectors. Moreover, STM32WBA52CG can be supplied by an external source (between 1.8 and 3.3 V). Thanks to level shifters, debugging by embedded STLINK is always possible even if the supply voltage of the target is different than 3V3 (ST-LINK supply). Figure 7 shows the power tree. Moreover, this figure also shows the default state of the jumpers and the solder bridges.

7 to 12 V power supply
A 7 to 12 V DC power source can power NUCLEO-WBA52CG. There are three accesses for this type of level:

• Pin VIN of the ARDUINO® connector (CN5-8). It is possible to apply until +12 V on this pin or use an ARDUINO® shield, which can deliver this type of voltage on the VIN pin
• Pin VIN of the ST morpho connector (CN3-24). It is possible to apply until +12 V on this pin like for the ARDUINO® connection
• External input (CN10). Be careful, in this case, the states of the jumpers and solder bridge are very important. Verify these states in Table 4.

These sources are connected to a linear low‑drop voltage regulator (U2). The output of this regulator (5 V) is a potential source of the 5V signal (refer to details in the next section).

5 V power supply
A 5 V DC power source can power NUCLEO-WBA52CG. The 5 V can come from several connectors:

• External input (CN10). Be careful, in this case, the states of the jumpers and solder bridge are very important. Refer to Table 4.
• 5V_EXT from ST morpho connector (CN5-6)
• 7-12 V input through the voltage regulator (U2) (refer to Section 7.1.2 7 to 12 V power supply).
  The jumper (JP1) allows selecting the 5V source. Table 4 shows the configuration to apply the selected source.

Depending on the current needed on the devices connected to the USB port, and the board itself, power limitations can prevent the system from working as expected. The user must ensure that NUCLEO-WBA52CG is supplied with the correct power source depending on the current needed.
Table 4. Power supply selector (JP1) description

When 5V_USB_STLINK is used, JP1 is set to [1-2]. The sequence is specific. In the beginning, only STLINK-V3MODS is supplied. If the USB enumeration succeeds, the 5V_USB_STLINK power is enabled by asserting the PWR_EN signal from STLINK-V3MODS. This pin is connected to a power switch (TPS2041C) which supplies the rest of the board. This power switch also features a current limitation to protect the PC in case of currents exceeding 300 mA.

Current measurement
As the device has got low power features, it can be interesting to measure the current consumed by NUCLEO-WBA52CG. To do this measurement easily, there are two possibilities:

1. Measure the supply current of the SoC using an amperemeter in place of the jumper (JP2). In this case, all supply sources can be used except the AVDD coming from the ARDUINO® connector. Figure 8 shows the configuration.
2. Use an external power supply with current measurement capability. In this case, the jumper (JP2) must be removed and the supply connected to pin 2 of JP2 (refer to Figure 9). The supply voltage should be between 1V8 and 3V3. AVDD input (CN1-8) must not be used during this measurement.
   

Clock sources
HSE clock references
The accuracy of the high‑speed clock (HSE) of the MCU RF board is committed to a 32 MHz crystal oscillator. The HSE oscillator is trimmed during board manufacturing.

LSE clock references
The accuracy of the low‑speed clock (LSE) of the MCU RF board is committed to a 32.768 kHz crystal oscillator.

Reset sources
The reset signal of NUCLEO-WBA52CG is active LOW. The internal PU forces the RST signal to a high level. The sources of reset are:

• Reset push-button (B4)
• Embedded STLINK-V3
• ARDUINO® connector (CN5 pin 3), reset from the ARDUINO® board
• ST morpho connector (CN3 pin 14)

Embedded STLINK-V3
The STLINK-V3 programming and debugging tool is integrated into NUCLEO- WBA52CG.

The features supported on the STLINK-V3 are

• USB 2.0 high-speed interface
• Probe firmware update through USB
• JTAG communication support up to 21 MHz
• SWD and SWV communication support up to 24 MHz
• 3.0 to 3.6 V application voltage support and 5 V tolerant inputs
• Virtual COM port (VCP) up to 16 Mbps
• Optional drag-and-drop flash memory programming binary files
• Multipath bridge USB to SPI/UART/I2C/CAN/GPIOs

For all general information concerning debugging and programming features common between V3 and V2-1 versions, refer to the user manual ST-LINK in- circuit debugger/programmer for STM8 and STM32 microcontrollers (UM0627) at www.st.com.

Drivers
STLINK-V3 requires a dedicated USB driver, which, for Windows 7® and Windows 8® is available from www.st.com. For Windows 10®, it is not necessary to install the driver. ST-LINK is automatically identified.
In case the NUCLEO-WBA52CG board is connected to the PC before the driver is installed, some board interfaces might be declared as Unknown in the PC device manager. In this case, the user must install the dedicated driver files and update the driver of the connected device from the device manager, as shown in Figure 10. USB composite device.

It is preferable to use the USB Composite Device to handle a full recovery.
Figure 10. USB composite device

STLINK-V3 firmware upgrade
STLINK-V3 embeds a firmware mechanism for the in‑place upgrade through the USB port. As the firmware might evolve during the lifetime of the STLINK-V3 product (for example new functionalities, bug fixes, support for new microcontroller families), visiting the www.st.com website is recommended before starting to use the NUCLEO-WBA52CG board, then periodically to stay up-to-date with the latest firmware version.

STLINK-V3 USB connector (CN15)
The main function of this connector is the access to STLINK-V3 embedded on the NUCLEO-WBA52CG for the debugging as explained above. It allows supplying the board (refer to Section 7.1 Power supply). The connector is a standard USB Micro-B connector.

Table 5. ST-LINK USB Micro-B connector (CN15)

Virtual COM port USART1
STLINK-V3 offers a USB Virtual COM port bridge. This feature allows access to the USART1 of NUCLEO-WBA52CG by the USB_STLNK connector. By default, this USART1 interface of NUCLEO-WBA52CG is connected to the VCP1 of the STLINK-V3 MCU (STM32F723IE).
An intermediate connection allows the use of this VCP differently. On the CN14 connector, both signals (TX and RX) are available, and two solder bridges allow disconnecting the UART coming from the SoC.

Table 6. UART interface pinout description

Virtual COM port LPUART1
It is possible to replace the mass storage interface with a second Virtual COM port. To do so, the solder bridges SB7 and SB8 must be ON. It is also necessary to do a firmware upgrade through STM32CubeProgrammer (refer to the technical note Overview of ST-LINK derivatives (TN1235) at www.st.com.

Level shifter
NUCLEO-WBA52CG has a system for supplying STM32WBA52CG with a different voltage than the ST-LINK. The ST-LINK is always supplied by 3V3 sources. By default, the STM32WBA52CG is supplied by the same voltage value as ST-LINK, but it is possible to supply the SoC with another value. It accepts voltage between 1.8 and 3.3 V trust to a specific component (level shifter). This level shifter assures the voltage conversion between ST-LINK and the SoC. It drives SWD and UART signals connected to the VCP on the ST-LINK.

LEDs
Description
Four LEDs on the top side of the Nucleo board help the user during the application development.

• LD1: This blue LED is available for user application.
• LD2: This green LED is available for user application.
• LD3: This red LED is available for user application.
• LD4: This LED turns green when a 5V source is available (to select the 5V source, refer to Section 7.1.3 5 V power supply).

LEDs are also available on the ST-LINK on the bottom side of the MB1801 mezzanine board. Refer to the user manual STLINK-V3MODS and STLINK-V3MINI debugger/programmer tiny probes for STM32 microcontrollers (UM2502) at www.st.com

Push-buttons

Description
NUCLEO-WBA52CG provides two types of buttons:

• USER1 push-button (B1)
• USER2 push-button (B2)
• USER2 push-button (B3)
• Reset push-button (B4), used to reset the Nucleo board.

Reset push-button
B4 is dedicated to the hardware reset of the NUCLEO board.

User push-buttons
There are three push-buttons available for the user application. They are connected to PA0, PE4, and PA6. It is possible to use with GPIO reading or to wake up the device (only B1).
Note that PA0 is also connected to ARDUINO® and ST morpho connectors as GPIO, depending on the use case that can generate conflict with B1. In this case, it is possible to remove the connection of B1 (SB11 OFF).

Table 7. I/O configuration for the physical user interface

RF I/O stage
The RF output stage is configured by default to use a PCB antenna. The components before the antenna are used for two functions: low-pass filtering the signal and matching the impedance of the circuit and the antenna.

The components C12, L1, C13, L2, and C14 build the output filter and matching network of the PCB antenna.

ARDUINO® connectors
Description
On the bottom side of the board, there is an ARDUINO® Uno V3 extension socket. It is built around four standard connectors (CN5, CN6, CN7, and CN8). Most shields designed for ARDUINO® can fit with the Discovery kits to offer flexibility in small form factor applications.

Figure 14. ARDUINO® Uno connectors and ARDUINO® shield location

Operating voltage
The ARDUINO® Uno V3 connectors support 5 V, 3.3 V, and VDD for I/O compatibility.

Caution : Do not supply 3.3 V or 5 V from the ARDUINO® shield. Supplying 3.3 V or 5 V from the ARDUINO® shield might damage the Nucleo board.
Furthermore, if it is necessary to supply the Nucleo board by the ARDUINO® connector, a dedicated pin is available. VIN allows supplying the board directly. To use this feature, refer to Section 7.1.2 7 to 12 V power supply.

ARDUINO® interface and pinout
Figure 15 shows the position of the ARDUINO® shield when it is plugged into NUCLEO-WBA52CG with the pinout. The pinout shown in Figure 15 corresponds to standard ARDUINO® naming. To see the correspondence with the STM32, refer to Table 8.

NUCLEO-WBA52CG product information

Product marking
The stickers located on the top or bottom side of all PCBs provide product information:

• First sticker: product order code and product identification, generally placed on the main board featuring the target device.
  Example:

• Second sticker: board reference with revision and serial number, available on each PCB.
  Example:

On the first sticker, the first line provides the product order code, and the second line the product identification.
On the second sticker, the first line has the following format: “MBxxxx- Variant-yzz”, where “MBxxxx” is the board reference, “Variant” (optional) identifies the mounting variant when several exist, “y” is the PCB revision, and “zz” is the assembly revision, for example B01. The second line shows the board serial number used for traceability.
Parts marked as “ES” or “E” are not yet qualified and therefore not approved for use in production. ST is not responsible for any consequences resulting from such use. In no event will ST be liable for the customer using any of these engineering samples in production. ST’s Quality department must be contacted prior to any decision to use these engineering samples to run a qualification activity.

“ES” or “E” marking examples of location:

• On the targeted STM32 that is soldered on the board (for an illustration of STM32 marking, refer to the STM32 datasheet Package information paragraph at the www.st.com website).
• Next to the evaluation tool ordering part number that is stuck, or silk-screen printed on the board.

Some boards feature a specific STM32 device version, which allows the operation of any bundled commercial stack/library available. This STM32 device shows a “U” marking option at the end of the standard part number and is not available for sales.
To use the same commercial stack in their applications, the developers might need to purchase a part number specific to this stack/library. The price of those part numbers includes the stack/library royalties.
