STMicroelectronics STM32WBA Series Microcontrollers (MCUs)

STM32WBA 32-bit MCU Wireless Series, Bluetooth® Low Energy 5.3 +10dBm, High Security Level

The STM32WBA 32-bit Wireless series brings designers the performance, efficiency, and security required for Bluetooth® Low Energy 5.3-enabled applications.

Based on the Arm® Cortex®-M33 core running at 100 MHz with TrustZone® technology, the STM32WBA series provides a high level of security, protecting data, IPs, and preventing hacks or device cloning.

Focusing on the Bluetooth® Low Energy 5.3 protocol, the STM32WBA series allows non-expert developers to easily add wireless communication to their device at an affordable cost.

Leveraging the STM32U5 architecture, the STM32WBA series is an ultra-low power platform and offers inherited digital and analog peripherals, suitable for many applications, from industrial, to smart home and consumer markets.

The STM32WBA wireless MCU embeds large memory to sustain both applications and connectivity activities, coming with up to 1 Mbytes of flash memory and 128 Kbytes of RAM. A smart set of peripherals like ADC, touch sensing, times, make this product a self-sufficient application wireless MCU.

The STM32WBA targets PSA Certified Level 3 and SESIP 3 IoT security standards. Security is at the heart of many applications, protecting data for safe resource monitoring and anti-hacking, like in medical and industrial fields, including predictive maintenance applications or device fleet management. Thanks to the Arm® Cortex®-M33 core with Arm® TrustZone® technology, the STM32WBA5 isolates and protects code and IPs whenever required using isolation capability and TF-M library included in the product ecosystem. The 2.4 GHz wireless STM32WBA series provides an integrated solution to help developers streamline their design journey, while addressing market requirements.
