Outboard Firmware Update feature compatibility question

Firmware
1

Hi guys, I recently discovered you, and I’m very excited with what will come soon in Blues.

I have a pretty basic question. Are the blue pill (STM32F103 arquitecture) or the black pill (STM32F411 arquitecture) compatible with the Notecard Outboard Firmware Update feature?

Hi @kyellow and welcome to the Blues community!

We do support both of those architectures, however it’s not a trivial task as neither board directly exposes the required pins. You’ll need to wire your hosts as documented here. I would recommend using the Swan as it’s a more capable STM32 host and exposes the necessary pins.

Thanks,
Rob
