Maytech STlink update firmware for electric speed controller MTVESC50A

Our Standard STLink USB only matches 4 pitch cable, there’s 2 different situation when use the STLink:

  1. If ESC connect to power, you can only connect the 4 ports: RST; SWDIO; GND; SWCLK
  2. If ESC do not connect power, then need to connect 5 ports: RST; SWDIO; GND; SWCLK; 3.3V

Below is the example that doesn’t downloaded firmware successfully because didn’t connect power and 3.3V for ESC.

Another reason for this situation: If only use 3.3V to power the ESC from STLink, this only suitable for small ESC, because big ESC requires high power consumption, 3.3V is not enough.
