This example is a Baite clone of the Leaflabs Maple mini. This is an inexpensive STM32F103CBT6 ARM Cortex-M3 development platform with 128KB flash and 20KB RAM. This has double the flash capacity of the vcc-gnd which has a similar controller.

The Maple mini board comes with a USB boot loader in flash along with the ROM based serial UART boot loader. The USB boot loader is compatible with dfu-util and no programming hardware is necessary to begin development with the Maple mini.

Power is supplied on the USB socket or VIN which feeds a 3V3 LDO regulator.

For now, see the libmaple page for a demo. Later a demo OpenCM3 demo will appear here.

The Maple mini boot loader has its own page here.
