1.1 Hardware requirements 
The 
X-NUCLEO-IDB04A1 
is an expansion board for use with STM32 Nucleo boards (please 
refer to UM1724 on www.st.com for further information). To function correctly, the STM32 
Nucleo board must be connected to the X-NUCLEO-IDB04A1 board as shown in Figure 2 
below. 
Figure 2. X-NUCLEO-IDB04A1 plugged to STM32 Nucleo 
board
The interconnection between the STM32 Nucleo and the X-NUCLEO-IDB04A1 has been 
designed to permit the use of any STM32 Nucleo board, although the optimal combination is 
obtained using the NUCLEO-L152RE or NUCLEO-L053R8 hosting the ultra-low power 
STM32.
