Key Features
Overview
The Tag-Connect TC2030-CTX-NL-STDC14 is a professional 6-pin "No Legs" Plug-of-Nails™ programming cable engineered specifically for STM32 processors with STLINK-V3 and STLINK-V3MINI debuggers. This innovative cable features a 6-pin TC2030-NL Tag-Connector paired with a 14-pin ribbon connector that mates directly with the STDC14 (FTSH-107) style micro-header, providing all necessary signals for SWD protocol communication including SWO.
Space-Saving Design Excellence
The "No Legs" footprint dramatically saves over 66% of the board space compared to traditional FTSH-107 style micro-headers, requiring only a 0.02 square inch PCB footprint - approximately the size of an 0805 SMT resistor. This space efficiency makes it ideal for compact PCB designs where every millimetre counts.
Professional Production Benefits
This cable eliminates the need for expensive board-mounted connectors, reducing BOM costs on every production board whilst maintaining professional-grade reliability. The precision-engineered spring-pins are rated for over 100,000 operations, ensuring consistent performance throughout development and manufacturing cycles.
For development work requiring hands-free operation, consider pairing with the TC2030-CLIP retention clips. Engineers requiring the standard "legged" version should explore the TC2030-CTX-STDC14 variant, whilst those needing full 14-pin connectivity should consider the TC2070-IDC-NL-050 cable.

Frequently Asked Questions
Have a Question?
-
Is the STDC14 connector compatible with other debugger systems?
The STDC14 connector follows STMicroelectronics' standard specification and is compatible with any debugger featuring the STDC14 interface. However, this specific cable is optimised for STLINK-V3 and V3MINI systems. For broader debugger compatibility, consider Tag-Connect's standard ARM Cortex cables available from Debug Store.
-
What is the cable length and signal integrity performance?
The standard cable length is 6 inches (152mm), optimised for signal integrity in high-speed SWD applications. The short length minimises signal reflections and crosstalk, ensuring reliable communication at maximum SWD clock frequencies supported by STLINK-V3 debuggers, including the 24MHz SWD rate capability.
-
How does this compare to more expensive alternatives like bed-of-nails fixtures?
Whilst bed-of-nails fixtures offer automation advantages for high-volume production, the TC2030-CTX-NL-STDC14 provides superior flexibility and significantly lower setup costs. It eliminates fixture design time, reduces programming equipment investment, and offers the same electrical performance with the added benefit of being usable across multiple PCB designs.
-
What development environments support this programming cable?
The cable integrates seamlessly with all professional STM32 development environments including STM32CubeIDE, Keil µVision, IAR Embedded Workbench, and other SWD-compatible tools. It supports full debugging functionality including breakpoints, memory inspection, register access, and SWO trace analysis through the STLINK-V3 interface.
-
Can this cable be used for hands-free debugging operations?
Yes, when paired with TC2030-CLIP retention boards available from Debug Store, the cable can be held securely in place for extended debugging sessions. The clips attach to the alignment pins from underneath the PCB, providing stable hands-free operation whilst maintaining the space-saving benefits of the no-legs design.
-
How does the PCB footprint compare to traditional programming connectors?
The TC2030-NL footprint requires only 0.02 square inches of PCB space, representing a 66% reduction compared to FTSH-107 style micro-headers. This ultra-compact footprint, approximately the size of an 0805 SMT resistor, maximises board space for critical components whilst maintaining professional debugging capabilities.
-
Which STM32 processors are compatible with this programming cable?
This cable supports all STM32 processor families when used with STLINK-V3 or STLINK-V3MINI debuggers. It provides complete SWD protocol support including SWCLK, SWDIO, SWO trace, RESET, VCC reference, and ground connections, making it suitable for Cortex-M0, M0+, M3, M4, M7, and M33 based STM32 devices.
-
What is the difference between the TC2030-CTX-NL-STDC14 and legged variants?
The "No Legs" (NL) version requires manual holding or retention clips for connection, whilst legged variants snap securely into PCB holes. The NL version offers the smallest possible PCB footprint at 0.02 square inches, making it ideal for space-constrained designs and production programming applications.
