9The STM32F1 series is based on ARM Cortex-M3 core. The following machines are
10based on this chip :
11
12- ``stm32vldiscovery``  STM32VLDISCOVERY board with STM32F100RBT6 microcontroller
13
14The STM32F2 series is based on ARM Cortex-M3 core. The following machines are
15based on this chip :
16
17- ``netduino2``         Netduino 2 board with STM32F205RFT6 microcontroller
18
19The STM32F4 series is based on ARM Cortex-M4F core, as well as the STM32L4
20ultra-low-power series. The STM32F4 series is pin-to-pin compatible with STM32F2 series.
21The following machines are based on this ARM Cortex-M4F chip :
22
23- ``netduinoplus2``     Netduino Plus 2 board with STM32F405RGT6 microcontroller
24- ``olimex-stm32-h405`` Olimex STM32 H405 board with STM32F405RGT6 microcontroller
25- ``b-l475e-iot01a``     :doc:`B-L475E-IOT01A IoT Node </system/arm/b-l475e-iot01a>` board with STM32L475VG microcontroller

65The STM32 machines can be started using the ``-kernel`` option to load a
66firmware. Example:
67
68.. code-block:: bash
69
70  $ qemu-system-arm -M stm32vldiscovery -kernel firmware.bin
