1 Introduction
STMicroelectronics is a global independent semiconductor company that designs, develops,
manufactures and markets a broad range of semiconductor integrated circuits and discrete
devices used in a wide variety of applications.
The STR730-EVAL board is based on the STR730FZ2T7, a highly integrated
microcontroller, running at up to 36 MHz that uses the popular ARM7TDMITM 32-bit RISC
CPU featuring on-chip high speed single voltage flash memory and high-speed RAM, clock
generation via PLL, and numerous on-chip peripherals.
This board is intended as low cost development platform to demonstrate the capability of the
STR730 series of flash micro-controllers and to enable rapid evaluation of the STR730
devices and available peripherals.
The STR730-EVAL board has 8-Kbit SPI EEPROM and 8-Kbit I2C EEPROM and supports
CAN and RS232 interfaces. It includes a 2 x 16 programmable LCD display supported by
select, next, back, previous and wake-up push buttons.
The hardware platform of the STR730F series is supported by an extensive software
support package, including device drivers in ANSI C source form and demonstration
software. It is flashed with a demonstration application that shows the basic features of the
device. Development tools are readily available. This is complemented by a range of third
party real-time OS and middleware.
Design schematics can also be supplied in electronic format to those customers with
compatible design environments.

2.1 Overview
The STR730-EVAL board is a general purpose evaluation platform with CAN (controller
area network), and RS232 interfaces.
2.2 Processor
The board supports the STR730FZ2T7 ARM7TDMITM silicon - 144-pin TQFP version. This
chip runs at a frequency of up to 36 MHz.
Boot modes and configuration options are set using microswitches.
2.3 Debug
Software debug uses a standard 20-pin JTAG connection. This may connect to a standard
host to JTAG interface.
2.4 Prototype area
A 2.54 x 2.54 mm gridded area of 1mm holes is available for prototyping using wire wrap or
similar prototyping techniques.
2.5 Reset
The reset sources are:
●power on reset,
●push button reset,
●JTAG reset from an in-circuit emulator.
2.6 Power supplies
Power to the board is supplied using a lump in cord power supply providing 5 V to the board.
All other required voltages are provided by on-board voltage regulators.
2.7 CAN interface
A general purpose, asynchronous serial I/O data port connected through a 9-pin D-type
male connector with microswitch selectable low speed fault tolerant transceiver (L9669) or
low or high speed selectable transceiver (L9616). See Section 3.1: CAN bus connector on
page 14.
The L9669 transceiver only works in normal mode, the wake-up functionality is not
implemented.

Hardware UM0559
8/29
2.8 RS232 serial interfaces
Two general purpose, asynchronous serial I/O data ports are connected through 9-pin D-
type male connectors refer to Section 3.2: RS232 serial data connector on page 14.
RS232-A connects directly to UART0, transmit and receive only. RS232-B connects to
UART1, transmit and receive only.
RTS is shorted to CTS and DTR is shorted to DSR at the connector for both interfaces.
2.9 Analog input
The following analog inputs are provided, see the schematics Figure 10 on page 19:
●LM35 temperature sensor IC9 is connected to AIN1,
●variable resistor R33 is connected to AIN0.
