STMicroelectronics STM32L4P5 Microcontroller (MCU)

Enables embedded devices to do more with less power

The STMicroelectronics STM32L4P5, part of the STM32L4+ family of low-power microcontrollers, enables system developers to restrict power consumption to new low levels while offering the high performance of an Arm® Cortex®-M4 core operating at 120MHz.

 

The STM32L4P5 MCU, which supports a comprehensive set of power-saving modes, is ideal for use in wearable devices and other applications which require sophisticated functions, instant responses and a long run-time on a battery power source.

 

The Cortex-M4 core in the STM32L4P5 MCU includes a single-precision floating-point unit which supports all the Arm single-precision data-processing instructions and data types. The Cortex-M4 core also implements a full set of DSP instructions, and a memory protection unit which enhances the application’s security.

 

High-speed memory provision includes up to 1Mbyte of Flash memory and 320kbytes of SRAM, plus a flexible external memory controller for static memories, and two OctoSPI Flash memory interfaces, in parts with at least 100 pins. The memory resources are backed by protection mechanisms: read-out protection, write protection, proprietary code read-out protection, and a firewall.

 

Standard and advanced communication interfaces in the STM32L4P5 MCU are:

  • Four I2C
  • Three serial peripheral interfaces
  • Three USARTs, two UARTs and one low-power UART
  • Two serial audio interfaces
  • Two SDMMC interfaces
  • One CAN
  • One USB OTG Full-Speed
  • Camera interface
  • Synchronous parallel data interface

Features

  • Two fast, 12-bit ADCs
  • Two DAC channels
  • Voltage reference buffer
  • Two comparators
  • Two operational amplifiers
  • Low-power real-time clock
  • Up to 24 capacitive sensor channels

Applications

  • Fitness bands
  • Smart watches
  • Small medical devices
  • Smart meters
  • Industrial sensors
