Details about some LEDs:

  1. 1.01.11.21.3 LD5, LD6, LD7, LD8: some user LEDs are used to reflect the system activity, while the others are left free to be used by the application, as explained in LEDs and buttons on STM32 MPU boards article
  2. LD4: flashes red if ST-LINK/V2-1 connection not established, else green
  3. LD1: turns red if USB Type-A connection established
  4. LD3: flashes green when Ethernet connection established
  5. LD2: turns green if power connection established

Board connection

The connections shown in the picture below are the ones recommended to start with the STM32MP157x_DKx Discovery kits. As shown in the board overview, other connectors are available for these boards (for example HDMI). STM32MP157x-DKx - board connections

Boot related switches

The following table defines the different combination of the boot mode selection switches:

GPIO mapping

GPIO expansion connector

The pins of the GPIO expansion connector (CN2 on the board overview picture) are described in the following table:

GPIO expansion connector

3V3 - 1 2 - 5V
GPIO2 / I2C5_SDA PA12 3 4 - 5V
GPIO3 / I2C5_SCL PA11 5 6 - GND
GPIO4 / MCO1 PA8 7 8 PB10 GPIO14 / USART3_TX
GND - 9 10 PB12 GPIO15 / USART3_RX
GPIO17 / USART3_RTS PG8 11 12 PI5 GPIO18 / SAI2_SCKA[EX 1]

GPIO26 / SDMMC3_D2 PF5 37 38 PI6 GPIO20 / SAI2_SDA[EX 1]
GND - 39 40 PF11 GPIO21 / SAI2_SDB[EX 1]
  1. 1.01.11.21.3 The SAI2 is shared between the audio codec and the GPIO expansion connector. By default, the SAI2 is connected to the audio codec thanks to Solder Bridge SB13, SB14, SB15, and SB16: more details in the STM32MP157x-DKx discovery board user manual.
  2. 2.02.1 Warning: the I2C1 is used to communicate with several on-board peripherals, but is also available on the GPIO expansion connector. So, it is important to ensure that new components added on the I2C1 connection will not disturb the bus behavior.

User buttons and LEDs

The GPIO assignments for the user buttons and LEDs are described in the following table. Refer to LEDs and buttons on STM32 MPU boards article to get information on the functional mapping for each one.

GPIO for user buttons and LEDs
LED color and label Button label GPIO
Green LD5 (*) USER1 (*) PA14
Red LD6 (*) USER2 (*) PA13
Orange LD7 - PH7
Blue LD8 - PD11
Warning.png (*) Both a LED and a button are connected to the same GPIO, with inverted logic for the LED control (so the LED is switched on when the GPIO output is set to low).
