This course describes the STM32H5 architecture

Objectives

  • Grasp STM32H5 fundamentals: Cortex-M33, memory map, dual-bank Flash, clock tree.
  • Build performant drivers with GPDMA (linked-list) and measure impact.
  • Use comms (USART, I²C, SPI), ADC, storage (optional SDMMC/FatFS), and low-power effectively.
  • Introduce security: TrustZone-M, TF-M, and STM32Trust Secure Manager.
  • Theoretical course
    • PDF material in English (printed for face-to-face); online over Teams.
    • Trainer assistance throughout.
  • Practical activities (40-50% of duration)
    • Code examples, exercises and solutions.
    • Remote: one online Linux PC per trainee, with emulated or physical board as needed.
    • Face-to-face / on-site: one PC (one per two beyond six trainees), target board and install manual as needed.
  • Downloadable preconfigured VM to redo the labs afterwards.
  • Each session starts with a trainee check-in.
  • Any embedded systems engineer or technician with the above prerequisites.
  • Prerequisites are checked before the training.
  • Progress is assessed by the trainer through the practical exercises, and by quizzes for sections without exercises.
  • Each trainee receives a completion certificate.
  • If a prerequisite gap appears, alternative or additional training is offered.
