  • STM8 LCD driver 4x20 ( HD44780 interface ) - By Giorgio R. (STM8S-ex4) is here
    Thanks to our friend Giorgio who sharing his library for driving LCD 4x20 using STM8.
    This SW is easy to traslate on another MCU.
    Features:
    + Tested everything with STM8S208 to 16MHz
    + DELAY are obviously related to the frequency of micro (16Mhz)
    + Hitachi HD44780 interface
    + 8 characters "built" in CGRAM

STice advanced in-circuit emulation system for ST microcontrollers
STM8 Discovery it is an eva-board + emulator
The Flasher for STM8 is now available from Segger GmbH.
This standalone, in-circuit Flash programmer supports the full range of STM8, either in standalone mode or connected to the host through USB, Ethernet or RS232 interfaces.
Its optical isolation reduces issues with different potentials in production environments and is particularly appreciated during development requiring insulation.
FlashRunner
SMH Technologies in-circuit programming system for production lines featuring standalone operation and easy integration in production and test equipment.
BeeProg2 , BeeHive204 , BeeHive208S tools from Elnec
are faster versions of, respectively, Beeprog+, BeeHive4+ and BeHive8S, and have compatible adaptors. All these production programming tools support STM8T141 devices, and are single, 4x and 8x fast programming systems, respectively. These tools are able to concurrently program up to 8 devices (BeeHive208S) in socket, as standalone (BeeHive8S), or connected to a PC through a USB line (BeeProg2, BeeHive204).
