Description
The X-CUBE-AZURE-H5 Expansion Package consists of a set of libraries and
application examples for STM32H5 series microcontrollers acting as end devices.
X-CUBE-AZURE-H5 provides a port of Azure
®
RTOS to the supported boards.
X-CUBE-AZURE-H5 runs on the STM32H573I-DK board, which supports Ethernet
and optional Wi‑Fi
®
connectivity.
A sample application configures the network connectivity parameters, and illustrates
the various ways for a device to interact with the Microsoft
®
Azure
®
IoT Hub. The
application shows how a client application connects to the
Azure
®
IoT Hub to publish
device state and telemetry data, and receive device configuration from the cloud. The
application handles Azure
®
messages, methods, and twin update commands. This
allows, from
Azure
®
IoT Central, the reception of telemetry data, the start-and-stop of
telemetry data emission, the remote control of the user LED state, and the change of
the telemetry interval.
The secure manager is used for the storage of cryptography functions, secure keys,
and parameters.

1.2 What is STM32Cube?
STM32Cube is an STMicroelectronics original initiative to improve designer productivity significantly by reducing
development effort, time, and cost. STM32Cube covers the whole STM32 portfolio.
STM32Cube includes:
• A set of user-friendly software development tools to cover project development from conception to
realization, among which are:
– STM32CubeMX, a graphical software configuration tool that allows the automatic generation of C
initialization code using graphical wizards
– STM32CubeIDE, an all-in-one development tool with peripheral configuration, code generation, code
compilation, and debug features
– STM32CubeCLT, an all-in-one command-line development toolset with code compilation, board
programming, and debug features
– STM32CubeProgrammer (STM32CubeProg), a programming tool available in graphical and
command-line versions
– STM32CubeMonitor (STM32CubeMonitor, STM32CubeMonPwr, STM32CubeMonRF,
STM32CubeMonUCPD), powerful monitoring tools to fine-tune the behavior and performance of
STM32 applications in real time
• STM32Cube MCU and MPU Packages, comprehensive embedded-software platforms specific to each
microcontroller and microprocessor series (such as STM32CubeH5 for the STM32H5 series), which
include:
– STM32Cube hardware abstraction layer (HAL), ensuring maximized portability across the STM32
portfolio
– STM32Cube low-layer APIs, ensuring the best performance and footprints with a high degree of user
control over hardware
– A consistent set of middleware components such as ThreadX, FileX / LevelX, NetX Duo, USBX,
USB-PD, mbed-crypto, secure manager API, MCUboot, and OpenBL
– All embedded software utilities with full sets of peripheral and applicative examples
• STM32Cube Expansion Packages, which contain embedded software components that complement the
functionalities of the STM32Cube MCU and MPU Packages with:
– Middleware extensions and applicative layers
– Examples running on some specific STMicroelectronics development boards
