This tutorial will show how to open a new project from stm32 CubeMX software for ARM Keil uvision IDE. stm32CubeMX is a graphical tool used to configure the STM32 microcontroller. Keil uvision ide is used to develop software for ARM Cortex-MX based microcontrollers.

There are a few steps that need to follow to create a new project in stm32CubeMX for Keil ide:
Step 1: Create a new project on stm32CubeMX
Step 2: Search your desired MCU and Select it from CubeMX. In this project, I select a stm32f446re microcontroller for demonstration purposes
Step 3: Go to System Core > RCC and select clock source from High-Speed Clock (HSE) option. I am using an 8 MHz external crystal oscillator. So, I have selected the Crystal/Ceramic Resonator option
Step 4: Go to System Core > Sys and select Serial Wire
Step 5: Go to the Clock Configuration tab and select your desired clock source and speed. I have used PLL (Phase-locked loop) with an 8 MHz external oscillator and derived a 180 MHz clock speed
Step 6: Configure your desired peripherals like I2C, SPI, UART, or ADC. I configure the I2C peripheral.
Step 7: Now go to the Project Manager tab and write your project name, then change the toolchain/ide to MDK-ARM and also select the latest version.
Step 8: Click to Generate Code tab and open the project in keil uvision ide.
Step 9: Try to build the project in Keil ide. You may have seen the project is not made and show some warning in the Build Output tab.
Step 10: For solving this issue go to Project > Options for target “Project Name” and select the latest ARM Compiler
Step 11: After that just build the project again and Run it to your STM32 Microcontroller
This is all for this tutorial.
