System Clock
------------

Nucleo G474RE System Clock could be driven by internal or external oscillator,
as well as main PLL clock. By default System clock is driven by PLL clock at 150MHz,
driven by 16MHz high speed internal oscillator. The clock can be boosted to 170MHz if boost mode
is selected.

Serial Port
-----------

Nucleo G474RE board has 3 U(S)ARTs. The Zephyr console output is assigned to LPUART1.
Default settings are 115200 8N1.

Please note that LPUART1 baudrate is limited to 9600 if the MCU is clocked by LSE (32.768 kHz) in
low power mode.

Programming and Debugging
*************************

Applications for the ``nucleo_g474re`` board configuration can be built and
flashed in the usual way (see :ref:`build_an_application` and
:ref:`application_run` for more details).

Flashing
========

Nucleo G474RE board includes an ST-LINK/V3E embedded debug tool interface.

Flashing an application to Nucleo G474RE
----------------------------------------

Connect the Nucleo G474RE to your host computer using the USB port,
then run a serial host program to connect with your Nucleo board.

.. code-block:: console

   $ minicom -D /dev/ttyACM0

Now build and flash an application. Here is an example for
:ref:`hello_world`.

.. zephyr-app-commands::
   :zephyr-app: samples/hello_world
   :board: nucleo_g474re
   :goals: build flash

You should see the following message on the console:

.. code-block:: console

   $ Hello World! arm


Debugging
=========

You can debug an application in the usual way.  Here is an example for the
:ref:`hello_world` application.

.. zephyr-app-commands::
   :zephyr-app: samples/hello_world
