Discovery kit with STM32F429ZI MCU

Introduction

The 32F429IDISCOVERY Discovery kit allows users to easily develop applications with the 
STMicroelectronics Arm

®

 Cortex

®

-M4 core-based STM32F429 high-performance 

microcontroller. It includes an ST-LINK/V2-B embedded debug tool, a 2.4" QVGA TFT LCD, 
an external 64-Mbit SDRAM, an ST MEMS gyroscope, a USB OTG Micro-AB connector, 
LEDs and push-buttons.
The board comes with the STM32 comprehensive free software libraries and examples 

available with the STM32CubeF4 MCU Package, as well as direct access to the Arm
