The STM32 Nucleo firmware and the relative documentation are available at www.st.com.
The X-NUCLEO-NFC04A1 is designed to be used with any STM32 Nucleo board, even if
complete testing has been performed using the NUCLEO-L053R8 (based on the ultra-low
power STM32L053R8) and the NUCLEO-F401RE (hosting the dynamically efficient
STM32F401RE).
To use the STM32 Nucleo development boards with the X-NUCLEO-NFC04A1 expansion
board, the following software and hardware specifications are required:
a PC/Laptop with Microsoft Windows
®
7 and above to install the software package
(X-CUBE-NFC4)
a type A to Mini-B USB cable to connect the STM32 Nucleo board to the PC/Laptop
the X-CUBE-NFC4 software package (available on
