Please use bluepill_f103c8 ID for board option in “platformio.ini” (Project Configuration File):
[env:bluepill_f103c8]
platform = ststm32
board = bluepill_f103c8
You can override default BluePill F103C8 settings per build environment using
board_*** option, where *** is a JSON object path from
board manifest bluepill_f103c8.json. For example,
board_build.mcu, board_build.f_cpu, etc.
[env:bluepill_f103c8]
platform = ststm32
board = bluepill_f103c8
; change microcontroller
board_build.mcu = stm32f103c8t6
; change MCU frequency
board_build.f_cpu = 72000000L
BluePill F103C8 supports the next uploading protocols:
blackmagic
dfu
jlink
mbed
stlink
Default protocol is stlink
You can change upload protocol using upload_protocol option:
[env:bluepill_f103c8]
platform = ststm32
board = bluepill_f103c8
upload_protocol = stlink
Debugging - “1-click” solution for debugging with a zero configuration.
Warning
You will need to install debug tool drivers depending on your system. Please click on compatible debug tool below for the further instructions and configuration information.
You can switch between debugging Tools & Debug Probes using debug_tool option in “platformio.ini” (Project Configuration File).
BluePill F103C8 does not have on-board debug probe and IS NOT READY for debugging. You will need to use/buy one of external probe listed below.

The ARM Cortex Microcontroller Software Interface Standard (CMSIS) is a vendor-independent hardware abstraction layer for the Cortex-M processor series and specifies debugger interfaces. The CMSIS enables consistent and simple software interfaces to the processor for interface peripherals, real-time operating systems, and middleware. It simplifies software re-use, reducing the learning curve for new microcontroller developers and cutting the time-to-market for devices |
