Potentiometer with NUCLEO-F401RE

Wiring for the 10 kΩ potentiometer on the NUCLEO-F401RE (STM32F401RE, 3.3 V logic), chosen with the same pin rules BoardPilot uses: default buses first, and no pins that are used for flash, USB, the debugger or booting.

Wiring

Check before you power it on

• Supply: 3.3 V from the 3V3 pin.

Test code (Arduino)

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(115200);
  analogReadResolution(12);
}

void loop() {
  long mv = (long)analogRead(PA0) * 3300L / 4095;  // OUT on A0
  Serial.println(mv);
  delay(200);
}

Arduino board: STMicroelectronics:stm32:Nucleo_64:pnum=NUCLEO_F401RE. Plug the USB cable into the mini-USB port on the ST-LINK end. No button press is needed.

Questions

Which NUCLEO-F401RE pins do I use for the Potentiometer?

VCC → 3V3, OUT → A0 (PA0), GND → GND.

Does the Potentiometer work with the NUCLEO-F401RE at 3.3 V?

Yes: the Potentiometer runs at 3.3 V and the NUCLEO-F401RE uses 3.3 V signals, so no level shifting is needed.
