## Hardware

Platform ST STM8: The STM8 is an 8-bit microcontroller family by STMicroelectronics an extended variant of the ST7 microcontroller architecture. STM8 microcontrollers are particularly low cost for a full-featured 8-bit microcontroller.

Microcontroller | STM8S208MBT6
Frequency | 16MHz
Flash | 128KB
RAM | 6KB
Vendor | sduino

## Configuration

Please use `mb208` ID for board option in “platformio.ini” (Project Configuration File):

    [env:mb208]
    platform = ststm8
    board = mb208

You can override default sduino MB (STM8S208MBT6B) settings per build environment using `board_***` option, where `***` is a JSON object path from board manifest mb208.json. For example, `board_build.mcu`, `board_build.f_cpu`, etc.

    [env:mb208]
    platform = ststm8
    board = mb208

    ; change microcontroller
    board_build.mcu = stm8s208mbt6

    ; change MCU frequency
    board_build.f_cpu = 16000000L

## Uploading

sduino MB (STM8S208MBT6B) supports the next uploading protocols:

- `serial`

- `stlinkv2`

Default protocol is `serial`

You can change upload protocol using upload_protocol option:

    [env:mb208]
    platform = ststm8
    board = mb208

    upload_protocol = serial

## Debugging

PIO Unified Debugger currently does not support sduino MB (STM8S208MBT6B) board.

## Frameworks

Name | Description
--- | ---
Arduino | Arduino Wiring-based Framework allows writing cross-platform software to control devices attached to a wide range of Arduino boards to create all kinds of creative coding, interactive objects, spaces or physical experiences.
SPL | The ST Standard Peripheral Library provides a set of functions for handling the peripherals on the STM32 Cortex-M3 family. The idea is to save the user (the new user, in particular) having to deal directly with the registers.
