AN1483 Application Note
Modifying your ST7MDT20M-EPB, ST7MDT20J-EPB or ST7MDT10-EPB to support STVP7 Release 1.3.1 and onwards
by Microcontroller Cores and Development Tools Division
About this application note
A hardware patch must be performed upon the ST7MDT20J-EPB, ST7MDT20M-EPB and ST7MDT10-EPB programming boards in order for them to function reliably with STVP7 Release 1.3.1 and onwards. This hardware patch will also improve the performance of these EPBs under STVP7 Release 1.2.0. This application note tells you how to modify the hardware of your ST7MDT20J-EPB, ST7MDT20M-EPB or ST7MDT10-EPB programming board.
ST7MDT20J-EPB hardware modifications
1 2 3 A 74HC125 device is plugged at the U7 socket (Figure 1). Remove this device from the socket and bend pin 5 outwards. Replace the 74HC125 device into the U7 socket, taking care to keep pin 5 bent outwards so that it does not make electrical contact with the socket. Solder one end of a wire to the bent-out pin 5 (Figure 1).

Modifying your ST7MDT20M-EPB, ST7MDT20J-EPB or ST7MDT10-EPB
Connect the other end of the wire soldered to pin 5 of the 74HC125 at U7 to pin 12 of the 74HC74 device at U3, as shown in Figure 2. There is a solder point adjacent and connecting to pin 12 that is convenient to solder to.

3 4 Solder one end of a wire to the bent-out pin 5 (see Figure 3).
Application Note
Connect the other end of the wire soldered to pin 5 of the 74HC125 at U6 to pin 12 of the 74HC74 device at U3, as shown in Figure 4. There is a solder point adjacent and connecting to pin 12 that is convenient to solder to.
