# STM32WB family
[st.com STM32WB family page](https://www.st.com/en/microcontrollers-microprocessors/stm32wb-series.html)
This ST MCU family is dual-core : based on an Arm Cortex-M4 core and an Arm Cortex-M0+ core.
- M4 core is dedicated to application (mbed-os)
- M0 core is dedicated to BLE FW (only binary, source files not provided)
# Supported boards
## NUCLEO_WB55RG
[st.com STM32WB55RG MCU page](https://www.st.com/en/microcontrollers-microprocessors/stm32wb55rg.html)
[st.com NUCLEO page](https://www.st.com/en/evaluation-tools/p-nucleo-wb55.html)
[mbed.com NUCLEO page](https://os.mbed.com/platforms/ST-Nucleo-WB55RG/)
- Total FLASH is 1MB, but note that it is shared by M4 and M0 cores.
- mbed-os application size is then limited to 768 KB
- RAM: 256 KB
- SRAM1: 192 KB
- SRAM2a: 32 KB
- SRAM2b: 32 KB
SRAM1 is dedicated for M4 core, and then for mbed-os applications.
SRAM2 is dedicated for M0 core and inter CPU communication, and then can not be addressed.
# BLE
## MBED-OS support
BLE feature is based on Cordio stack and API (above HCI) implementation.
Note that the BLE controller firmware running on the cortex-M0 is the same as in STcubeFW solution
- within mbed, the controller will run only the below-HCI part
- within STcubeFW (and STM32WPAN middleware), it can run also up to GATT / GAP layers ...

## BLE FW flashing procedure
Release Note and complete flashing procedure:
https://htmlpreview.github.io/?https://github.com/STMicroelectronics/STM32CubeWB/blob/master/Projects/STM32WB_Copro_Wireless_Binaries/STM32WB5x/Release_Notes.html
- STEP 1: Use STM32CubeProgrammer
https://www.st.com/en/development-tools/stm32cubeprog.html
````
FLASHPATH="C:\Program Files\STMicroelectronics\STM32Cube\STM32CubeProgrammer\bin"
export PATH=$FLASHPATH:$PATH
````
- STEP 2: Access to Bootloader USB Interface (system flash)
* Boot0 pin set to VDD : Jumper between CN7.5(VDD) and CN7.7(Boot0)
* Jumper JP1 on USB_MCU
* Power ON via USB_USER

- STEP 3 : Delete current wireless stack :
```
$ STM32_Programmer_CLI.exe -c port=usb1 -fwdelete
...
FUS state is FUS_IDLE
FUS status is FUS_NO_ERROR
Deleting firmware ...
Firmware delete finished
fwdelete command execution finished
```
- STEP 4 : Read and upgrade FUS Version
```
$ STM32_Programmer_CLI.exe -c port=usb1 -r32 0x20030030 1
...
Reading 32-bit memory content
Size : 4 Bytes
Address: : 0x20030030
0x20030030 : 00050300
```
- STEP 5A if last result is 00050300 : Download new FUS :
```
$ ./STM32_Programmer_CLI.exe -c port=usb1 -fwupgrade stm32wb5x_FUS_fw_1_0_2.bin 0x080EC000 firstinstall=0
```
- STEP 5B if last result is 01000100 or 01000200 : Download new FUS :
```
$ STM32_Programmer_CLI.exe -c port=usb1 -fwupgrade stm32wb5x_FUS_fw.bin 0x080EC000 firstinstall=0
```
- STEP 4 (to check) : Read and upgrade FUS Version
```
$ STM32_Programmer_CLI.exe -c port=usb1 -r32 0x20030030 1
Reading 32-bit memory content
Size : 4 Bytes
Address: : 0x20030030
0x20030030 : 01010000
```
- STEP 6 : Download new wireless stack :
```
$ STM32_Programmer_CLI.exe -c port=usb1 -fwupgrade stm32wb5x_BLE_Stack_full_fw.bin 0x080CB000 firstinstall=1
...
Download firmware image at address 0x80cb000 ...
...
File download complete
...
Firmware Upgrade Success
```
- STEP 7 : Revert STEP 2 procedure to put back device in normal mode.
