Aideepen ST-Link V2 Programming Unit Emulator Downloader(Random Color)+2PCS 40pin STM32F103C6T6 ARM STM32 SWD Minimum System Board Micro USB

Ordered several. Major issue is they ship all with different color wires. It is a recipe for making mistakes when you are doing development work. Otherwise, works perfectly. Combine this with a USB isolator and you have the equivalent to an isolated debug tool for 1/4 the cost.

It works but is ultra cheap build quality.

I should have known. Consider the source. %^&*

Package arrived on time and all three pieces power up. Attached to my system and flashed a few test apps using some USB libraries. Mostly functions as an STM32F103C8T6. Reports to the ST Link in the flash utility as an STM32F103C8T6 as well and was able to update the ST LINK with the newest firmware. Upon closer physical inspection both the board and the programmer contain cloned chips made by CKS and NOT STM. Normally this board runs at 72MHz but can also be ran at 48MHz and 128MHz. I found this particular CKS clone DOES NOT run at 128MHz and ends up in a lockup state. Curious what other issues I will run into but will likely function fine for my particular application. Hard to find any information about CKS as their website is returning 403 and other sources are few and far between.

I just spent 4 hours trying to get this (bleeping) thing to work and it's worthless.I tried it on Mac OS, Windows 10, and Ubuntu 18.04. None of my OS' were able to detect this device. I installed several software packages that were supposed to install drivers to detect the device (Win 10) to no avail.I consider myself pretty tech savvy with 12 years as a software developer and IOT DIY guy. I value my time and for this device to waste 4 hours of my life is frustrating to say the very least! 😡 I should send Aideepen an Invoice for thoroughly testing their device on 3 different platforms just to find out either this device is defective, or their product sucks... one or the other. It doesn't matter now, they won't have another chance to waste my time. I am clicking 'submit' and then starting the return process.**UPDATE**: After I submitted my `Ranting Review` the other day, I ordered the HiLetGo version of this same adapter. I plugged it in to my Mac and it was immediately found and useable. This solidifies the fact that the Aideepen adapter was a 8 dollar stick of junk... and I wasted 4 hours of my life trying to bring it to life. My advice... get the HiLetGo version... its the same price and it worked the first time. #yourewelcome It can be found here ➡️ https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07SQV6VLZ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
