Evaluation board with STM32G081RB MCU
Introduction
The STM32G081B-EVAL Evaluation board is a high-end development platform for Arm®
Cortex®-M0+ core-based STM32G081RBT6 microcontroller with USB Type-C™ and Power
Delivery controller interfaces (UCPD) compliant with USB Type-C r1.2 and USB PD
specification r3.0, two I2Cs, two SPIs, five USARTs, one LP UART, one 12-bit ADC, two
12-bit DACs, two GP comparators, two LP timers, internal 32KB SRAM and 128KB Flash,
CEC, SWD debugging support.
The full range of hardware features on the STM32G081B-EVAL Evaluation board includes
the mother board, the legacy peripheral daughterboard and the USB Type-C and Power
Delivery daughterboard, which help to evaluate all peripherals (USB Type-C connector with
USB PD, motor control connector, RS232, RS485, Audio DAC, microphone ADC, TFT LCD,
IrDA, IR LED, IR receiver, LDR, microSD™card, CEC on two HDMI connectors, smartcard
slot, RF E2PROM and temperature sensor… etc.) and to develop applications. An ST-
LINK/V2-1 is integrated on the board as embedded in-circuit debugger and programmer for
the STM32 MCU.
The daughterboard and extension connectors provide an easy way to connect a
daughterboard or wrapping board for your specific application.
The USB Type-C and Power Delivery daughterboard features two independent USB-C ports
controlled by STM32G0. USB-C port 1 is dual role power (DRP) and can provide up-to 45W
of power. USB-C Port 2 is sink only. Both supports USB PD protocol and alternate mode
functionality.

8.1 Embedded ST-LINK/V2-1
The ST-LINK/V2-1 programming and debugging tool is integrated on the STM32G081B-
EVAL Evaluation board. Compared to ST-LINK/V2 the changes are listed below.
The new features supported on ST-LINK/V2-1 are:
•USB software enumeration
•Virtual COM port interface on USB
•Mass storage interface on USB
•USB power management request for more than 100 mA power on USB
This feature is no longer supported on ST-LINK/V2-1:
•SWIM interface
For all general information concerning debugging and programming features common
between V2 and V2-1 refer to ST-LINK/V2 in-circuit debugger/programmer for STM8 and
STM32 User manual (UM1075) in the www.st.com website.
Note: It is possible to power the board via CN6 (Embedded ST-LINK/V2-1 USB connector) even if
an external tools is connected to CN12 or CN13 (External SWD connector).
8.1.1 Drivers
The ST-LINK/V2-1 requires a dedicated USB driver, which can be found on www.st.com for
Windows PC (7, 8 or 10).
In case the STM32G081B-EVAL Evaluation board is connected to the PC before the driver
is installed, some STM32G081B-EVAL interfaces may be declared as “Unknown” in the PC
device manager. In this case, the user must install the driver files, and update the driver of
the connected device from the device manager.
Note: Prefer using the “USB Composite Device” handle for a full recovery.
Figure 7. USB Composite Device
8.1.2 ST-LINK/V2-1 firmware upgrade
The ST-LINK/V2-1 embeds a firmware upgrade mechanism for in-situ upgrade through the
USB port. As the firmware may evolve during the lifetime of the ST-LINK/V2-1 product (for
example new functionality, bug fixes, support for new microcontroller families), it is
recommended to visit the www.st.com website before starting to use the STM32G081B-
EVAL board and periodically, to stay up-to-date with the latest firmware version.

Hardware layout and configuration UM2403
16/78 UM2403 Rev 1
8.2 Power supply
The STM32G081B-EVAL Evaluation mother board is designed to be powered by 5 V DC
power supply and is protected by PolyZen from wrong power plug-in event. It is possible to
configure the mother board to use any of the following four sources for the power supply:
•5 V DC power adapter connected to CN16, the power Jack on the board (Power
Supply Unit on silk screen of JP17 (PSU)). The external power supply is not provided
with the board.
•5 V DC power with 500 mA limitation from CN6, the USB Micro-B connector of
STLINK/V2-1 (USB 5 V power source on silkscreen of JP17 (STlk)). If the USB
enumeration succeeds, the ST-LINK U5V power is enabled, by asserting the PWR_EN
pin. This pin is connected to a power switch, which powers the board. This power
switch features also a current limitation to protect the PC in case of short-circuit on the
board. If overcurrent (more than 500 mA) happens on the board, the LED LD5 lights
up.
•5 V DC power from CN6 directly, the USB Micro-B connector of STLINK/V2-1 (USB 5 V
power source on silkscreen of JP17 (U5V)).
•5 V DC power from CN5 or CN9, the extension connector for daughterboard power
source (D5V) on silkscreen of JP19).
The UCPD daughterboard uses its own 19V power adapter to support USB PD, in this case
the mother board uses D5V from the UCPD daughterboard to supply all circuits on
STM32G081B-EVAL Evaluation board. D5V of the UCPD daughterboard has three sources
as below:
•19 V DC power adapter connected to CN3 on the UCPD daughterboard
•Power from Type-C Port1 CN7 on the UCPD daughterboard
•Power from Type-C port2 CN5 on the UCPD daughterboard
19 V DC power adapter and Type-C Port1 sources are automatically selected by circuit (D8
and T10 on the UCPD daughterboard). Refer to Table15 for detail.

Figure 8. 5 V power structure
The STM32G081B-EVAL Evaluation board can be powered from the ST-LINK/V2-1 USB
connector CN6 with a PC, but only the ST-LINK/V2-1 circuit has the power before USB
enumeration, because the host PC only provides 100 mA to the boards at that time. During
the USB enumeration, the STM32G081B-EVAL board requires 300 mA power from the host
PC. If the host is able to provide the required power, the enumeration succeeds, the power
transistor U5 is switched ON, the red LED LD7 is turned ON, and thus the STM32G081B-
EVAL board is powered and can consume maximum 300 mA current. If the host PC is not
able to provide the requested current, the enumeration fails. Therefore the STM32 part
including the extension board is not powered. As a consequence the red LED LD7 remains
turned OFF. In this case it is mandatory to use an external power supply to supply extra
power.
E5V (from PSU) or D5V can be used as external power supply in case current consumption
of the STM32G081B-EVAL board exceeds the allowed current on USB. In this condition it is
still possible to use USB for communication, for programming or debugging only, but it is
mandatory to power the board first using E5V or D5V, and then connecting the USB cable to
the PC. Proceeding this way ensures that the enumeration succeeds thanks to the external
power source.
The following power sequence procedure must be respected:

1. Connect jumper JP17 for PSU or D5V side
2. Check that JP5 is removed
3. Connect the external power source to PSU or D5V (daughterboard mounted)
4. Check red LED LD7 is turned ON
5. Connect the PC to USB connector CN6
If this order is not respected, the board may be powered by VBUS first then E5V or D5V,
and the following risks may be encountered:
1. If more than 300 mA current is needed by the board, the PC may be damaged or
current can be limited by PC. As a consequence the board is not powered correctly.
2. 300 mA is requested at enumeration (since JP5 must be OFF), so there is risk that
request is rejected and enumeration does not succeed if PC can't provide such current.
Consequently the board is not powered (LED LD7 remains OFF).
In case the STM32G081B-EVAL board is powered by an USB charger through CN6, there is
no USB enumeration needed. User can set JP17 to U5V to allow the board to be powered
anyway from CN6.
The power source is selected by setting the related jumpers JP17, JP15 and JP16 as
described in table 2.

Note: The VDD_MCU Idd measurement can be done by current meter which mounted on JP11
when it is open. But JP11 is not allowed to be opened without current meter; otherwise
STM32G081RBT6 would be damaged due to lacking of power supply on its power pins.
Note: LD8 is lit when VDD < 2.7 V and in this case IOs and some Analog IPs of STM32G081RBT6
work with degraded performances.
Note: The UCPD daughterboard works with VDD=3.3V, so it is mandatory to close JP16 pin1 and
pin2.
The LED LD7 is lit when the STM32G081B-EVAL Evaluation board is powered by the 5V
correctly.
Table 3 shows the low voltage limitations that might apply depending on the characteristics
of some peripheral components. Components might work incorrectly when the power level
is lower than the limitation.
