STMicroelectronics STM32 latest ultra-low-power microcontrollers to focus on low-power applications designed to provide the industry's best solutions, rich open ecosystem helps designers significantly reduce power consumption.
China, May 13, 2014 - STMicroelectronics latest STM32L0 microcontroller has been fully certified by the relevant tests and the order specified in the company and dealers. The new series of STM32 microcontrollers enable customers to achieve unprecedented low-power, integrated energy-efficient ARM ® Cortex ®-M0 + core, optimized architecture, power management mode, ultra-low-power peripherals, USB support energy-saving features, exclusive the ultra-low power manufacturing process.
STM32L0 will run mode power consumption to 87μA/MHz, while retaining all the data RAM, stop mode power consumption of 440nA, and integrated low-power timer, fast wake-up time to reach 3.5μs, so that application designers can take advantage of different low power mode. Designers use STM32L0 products can be developed excellent battery life and slim design of computer peripherals, Health Monitor / Tracker, industrial sensors and smart home products. Other brand products consumption increases rapidly with increasing temperature, while STMicroelectronics unique manufacturing process to maintain a stable low power consumption in a wide temperature range, so that the series hit the world's smallest at 125 ° C when Power consumption records. STM32L0 series also integrates the world's lowest power ADC (ADC). Under 100k samples per second rate, integrated on-chip 12-bit ADC consumes only 48μA, features built-in hardware oversampling ADC resolution will be increased to 16.
The series consists of the balance of 30 basic entry-level products, in addition to the entry-level configuration, but also offers a USB interface and optional LCD controller (up to 8x28) models. Full-speed USB module supports operation without an external crystal, USB charging detection (BCD) and link layer power management (LPM).
Enhanced STM32CubeMX design tool to add power consumption calculator, support STM32L0 series of products to help users achieve ultra-low power consumption of new products target. STM32CubeMX can speed up the startup code generation, simplify application design between different STM32 product transplant. STMicroelectronics is expected this year will launch a new STM32L0 Nucleo circuit board, providing Morpho and Arduino-compatible interface, fully supports mbed.org standards.
STMicroelectronics will further expand STM32L0 open ecosystem, launched a circuit board installed an ePaper display as well as to explore the suite of linear capacitive touch sensor and self-test measurement system, allowing users to measure real-time power consumption. STM32L0 exploration package is also expected to be listed in 2014. STM32L0 Nucleo board and explore the suite will integrate a ST-Link/V2 hardware debugger.
STMicroelectronics will provide optimized to run on Nucleo kit evaluation board and explore the STM32L0 dedicated microcontroller sample code to further help designers to achieve the lowest power consumption goals.
STM32L0 latest microcontroller provides a variety of packages from 2.7mm x 2.7mm to 10mm x 10mm LQFP64 WLCSP36, integrated maximum 64KB Flash, 8KB SRAM and 2KB EEPROM.
NOTE TO EDITORS:
STM32L0 series positioned between the ultra-low-power STM8L 8-bit microcontrollers and pin-compatible STM32L Cortex-M3 32-bit microcontrollers. Currently STMicroelectronics ultra-low-power ARM Cortex-M Microcontrollers Max models, from 32KB flash memory capacity expansion in existing markets to 512KB, the maximum RAM capacity of 80KB, 32-pin package options to expand from 144 pin. STMicroelectronics also provides Nucleo boards, evaluation and exploration kits, assist designers to measure the performance and functionality STM32L0 and STM32L1 series microcontrollers.
