Overview

 

Linux BSP for STM32H7-EVAL Board

 

This is the Linux (uClinux) BSP (Board Support Package) and software development environment for the STM32H753I-EVAL Evaluation boards (STM32H7-EVAL). uClinux runs on the Cortex-M7 core of the STM32H753I.

This is a software-only product. It does not include the STM32H753I-EVAL Evaluation board hardware or any other hardware equipment. Emcraft does not sell the STM32H753I-EVAL Evaluation board; please purchase it from ST or its distributors.
