multiplexed full-duplex I2S interfaces, two SDMMC controllers, five USARTs, five UARTs, one ULPUART, one TTFD-CAN, one
CAN FD, two 16-bit ADCs, two 12-bit DACs, two SAIs, two Octo-SPI interfaces, two analog comparators, one SPDIF-RX,
DFSDM (8 channels / 8 filters), one USB HS OTG and one USB FS OTG, DCMI interface, FMC interface, TFT LCD controller
interface, JTAG, and SWD debugging support.
This STM32H7B3I-DK Discovery kit offers everything required for users to get started quickly and develop applications easily.
The hardware features on the board help to evaluate the following peripherals: USB HS OTG, microSD™ card, 8-bit camera
interface, audio DAC stereo with audio jack input and output, 128-Mbit SDRAM memory, 512-Mbit Octo-SPI Flash memory,
Wi‑Fi® module (802.11 b/g/n compliant), I2C extension connector, CAN FD, 20-pin microphone MEMS connector with DFSDM
interface, 4.3-inch TFT-LCD (480*272) using an RGB interface with a capacitive touch panel. The ARDUINO® Uno V3
compatible and STMod+ connectors allow easy connection of extension shields or daughterboards for specific applications.
The integrated STLINK-V3E provides an embedded in-circuit debugger and programmer for the STM32 MCU.

6Getting started
1. Ensure that the JP1 jumper is set to STLK.
2. Connect a Type-A to Micro-B USB cable from the STM32H7B3I-DK board (Connect USB STLINK CN14) to
a PC to power the board. Then LD5 (+5V) and LD4 (STLINK COM) light up.
3. Take advantage of three graphical stacks running on the same board with many featured applications for
each selected Sub-Demo:
– Menu launcher
– Audio player TGFX application (MP3 support)
– Clock and Weather with Alarm feature
– Video player TGFX application (enabled)
– TGFX Graphic demonstration
– STemWin Graphic demonstration
– EWZ Graphic demonstration
4. The demonstration application software as well as other software examples and applications for exploring
STM32H7 features are available from STM32H7B3I-DK.
Note: The audio and video player applications play audio and video files from the microSD™ card.
