STMicroelectronics STM32F7 microcontroller lines and ecosystem extensions

Click2Contact

The latest STM32F722 and STM32F723 microcontrollers in STMicroelectronics’ high-performance STM32F7 series reduce memory footprint by integrating value-added features, including code-execution protection and high-speed USB physical-layer (PHY) circuitry, that streamline development of connected applications.

The STM32F732 and STM32F733 variants come with extra cryptographic features on-chip, such as an efficient AES256 HW engine. There are versatile package options from a 64-pin LQFP up to 176-pin LQFP or UFBGA for projects demanding high I/O count, and 256 or 512 KB of on-chip Flash memory with 256 KB RAM.

Extensive pin, package and software compatibility between the devices and higher-end STM32F7 variants with 256 KB to 2 MB Flash memory and 256 to 512 KB RAM in packages up to 216-pin TFBGA simplifies design scaling for product differentiation and futureproofing. STM32F7 projects can also be readily ported throughout the large STM32 microcontroller family, which contains over 700 devices that cover all 32-bit Cortex-M cores and offer a wide range of peripheral, pin-count and memory options.

ST is also introducing a Discovery Kit, based on the STM32F769, with expansion connectors that include an 8-pin socket for Wi-Fi modules. The kit supports Power over Ethernet (PoE). Other features include a 512-Mbit Quad-SPI (QSPI) Flash interface and accessories that enhance flexibility and extend application reach. The kit can also be supplied with the B-LCD40-DSI 4″ WVGA capacitive-touch-screen display prefitted. The B-LCD40-DSI can be ordered separately if needed to upgrade the kit at a later date.
