LabVIEW for the STM32F100 or the STM32F4 ARMs

[wond3rboy]

Hi, i was wanting to get started with LabVIEW for ARMs.

and

I wanted to know whether the above ARMs are supported are not, already looked at the RL-Libraries provided by kiel

http://www.keil.com/rl-arm/chips.asp

Since the STM32F100RB is listed,

http://www.keil.com/dd/chip/5086.htm

can i use LabVIEW ARM to directly code the board?

Thanks.

I was unable to get it running: STM32F100RB - application is too large for target memory.

If you will be more lucky, please don't hesitate to share your experience here. Thanks.

Andrey.

Thanks for the reply andrey. I haven't ordered it yet, wanted to be sure about the compatibility. How about the STM32F103RB?. Its listed in the kiel libraries too.

Here is a guy who has worked with it. Seems like he got it working. The boards the same as well.

PS: Both have the same code memory, surprising to see the STM32F100 gives an error.

Hello wond3rboy,

There are two tiers of support for various ARM microcontrollers in LabVIEW, and this Developer Zone tutorial explains what what features are supported on each. So according to the Keil RL-ARM Real-Time Library, as you mentioned along with the other forums, these boards will work but will take considerably more time as a tier 2 device to create your own drivers. What is your application goal and timeline? Tier 1 boards are fully compatible to directly code the board with LabVIEW and depending on your application, another great option is the Single Board RIO.

Thank you,

Deborah Y.

Hi Deborah,

I am an instructor at a university and want demonstrate the embedded targeting of LAbVIEW with ARMs so going for the RIO is not an option. Thanks for your reply, i will look in to it more and check out my options.

hello,

does anyone had any success using labview with stm32f4?

The ability to compile code in LabVIEW for ARM targets is basically not supported / updated any longer. If you want to communicate with an ARM device (like the STM32), you would be better to write code for the STM which can read/write serial data which you can communicate with from LabVIEW.
