MCU family offers affordable high performance

The STM32 MCU product family from ST Microelectronics has been extended with a high performance and a very high performance series, available from Rutronik UK. The two Value Lines F7x0 and H7x0 give extra flexibility to create affordable performance-oriented applications including real-time IoT devices, without compromises in features or cyber protection.

Both series cut embedded Flash down to a minimum while still allowing secure boot processes, sensitive code and real-time routines to run safely on-chip. By adding off-chip serial or parallel memories up to 32-bit, applications can scale-up with no performance penalty.

The entry-level model STM32F730 delivers 1082 CoreMark performance running at 216MHz aided by ST Microelectronics integrated ART Accelerator for zero-wait-state execution of Flash.

It also integrates cryptographic hardware acceleration, a USB 2.0 high speed/full speed port with PHY and a CAN interface. In addition to the functions of the STM32F730, the STM32F750 has a TFT-LCD controller with the Chrom-ART Graphics Accelerator developed by ST.

Other features include hardware acceleration for hash algorithms, two CAN interfaces, an Ethernet MAC, a camera interface and two USB 2.0 interfaces with high speed/full speed PHY.

With 2020 CoreMark at 400MHz, the STM32H750 delivers high-end performance and adds a hardware JPEG encoder/decoder for even faster GUI performance.

The MCU also comes with a CANFD port and another CANFD with time-trigger capability as well as high-quality operational amplifiers and 16-bit ADCs with up to 4.5Msample/s
