This book is intended as a hands-on manual for learning how to design systems using the STM32 F1 family of micro-controllers. It was written to support a junior-level computer science course at Indiana University.
The focus of this book is on developing code to utilize the various peripherals available in STM32 F1 micro-controllers and in particular the STM32VL Discovery board. Because there are other fine sources of information on the Cortex-M3, which is the core processor for the STM32 F1 micro-controllers, we do not examine this core in detail; an excellent reference is "The Definitive Guide to the ARM CORTEX-M3."
This book is not exhaustive, but rather provides a single "trail" to learning about programming STM32 micro controller built around a series of laboratory exercises. A key design decision was to utilize readily available off-the-shelf hardware models for all the experiments discussed.
