Design Notes
Ensure proper decoupling of the VDD and VDDA pins. Place a 100nF ceramic capacitor and a 10uF electrolytic capacitor close to each power pin. The VDDA pin should be filtered with a ferrite bead to reduce noise from the digital supply. Refer to the ST application note AN2860 for detailed power supply design guidelines.
For the crystal oscillator, place the crystal and load capacitors as close as possible to the XTAL and EXTAL pins. Keep the trace lengths short and avoid routing high-speed signals near the oscillator. Use a ground plane under the oscillator area to minimize EMI. Follow the layout recommendations in the ST application note AN2860.
Do not exceed the absolute maximum ratings for supply voltage (6V) or input voltage on any pin. Ensure that the reset pin is properly pulled up with a 10k resistor and a 100nF capacitor to ground to prevent spurious resets. When programming the flash, follow the recommended programming sequence to avoid corruption. Also, ensure that the boot mode pins are configured correctly for the desired boot source.
