@ -20,34 +20,31 @@ This flash may have been tested bad, or not have been tested at all,
or, in the best case, was tested good but market requirements made STM sell
it as F103C8.
Ignoring the chip marking and using an F103C8 blindly as a F103Cb is done
already with few problems on many china boards (e.g. blue pill). Probably
this second approach will work for many of the older STLinks.
dfu-util cares for the size and refuses to programm above the announced size:
> dfu-util -S E4D078EA -s 0x08002000:leave -D blackmagic.bin
dfu-util 0.9

Ignoring the chip marking and using an F103C8 blindly as a F103CB is done
already with no known problems on many STM board and china boards (e.g. blue
pill) with genuine STM32. China stlinks clones with a GD32F103x8 will
probably not work. Best is to get new genuine ST hardware. The
STLINK-Vmini is < 10 $ without VAT or to resolder a genuine
STM32F103CB chip. Think also about using the pc-hosted pc-stlinkv2
platform on stlinks with revent firmware.

Use the BMP provided upgrade tools:
- scripts/stm32_mem.py
- Compiled upgrade tool in upgrade
Only if mismatch is reported, think further.
