StellarLink [STMicroelectronics]

StellarLINK is the STMicroelectronics programmer for automotive MCUs, supporting the whole family of Stellar MCUs, SR5 and SR6, as well as the traditional SPC5 microcontrollers. StellarLINK is a passive USB-to-JTAG debugger and programmer dongle, which provides a cost-effective, small-size, and fast-prototyping solution for any vehicle applications of today and tomorrow.

StellarLINK ensures short development time through an easy-to-use hardware and a simple software fully integrated into STMicroelectronics’ StellarStudio and SPC5-STUDIO IDEs.

The JTAG interface ensures an easy plug to any STMicroelectronics standalone automotive microcontroller and its evaluation boards [compliant with the IEEE 1149.1 JTAG protocol].

StellarLINK provides a virtual COM port interface enabling the host PC to communicate with the microcontroller through a UART.

StellarLINK software is free downloadable from STMicroelectronics website.
