MCO clock source for Nucleo L432KC board

Hello everybody,

I want to change the clock source for my Nucelo L432KC board to MCO clock. Reason is because I have timing issues when communicating to a SK6812 LED strip. However, I alaways get a SetSysClock Error on the serial output.

I am not really sure if I do the correct steps for changing clock source as I haven’t found a lot of information on that matter. I did the following:

  • Change of Jumper configuration
    - SB5 and SB7 now open (= solder bridge removed)
    • SB17 now shorted (= solder bridge added)
  • Change of targets.json in MBED studio
    • for “NUCLEO_L432KC”/“config”/“clock_source”/“value” changed to “USE_PLL_HSE_EXTC”

The program does compile/transfer but after start it directly fails.

Appreciate your ideas/hints what I do wrong here.

Serial error output:

Thanks Jerome for your feedback. I also think it is a related issue. Search quite a lot during last night and found out that disabling the LSE at least solved the immediate issue and the board boots now. Thus, I added for the L432 board the following in the json target config:
"overrides": { "lse_available": 0 },
