Overview

The NUCLEO-L452RE is a Nucleo-64 development board featuring the STM32L452 ultra-low-power microcontroller based on the ARM Cortex-M4 core. It provides a flexible prototyping platform with 512 KB of Flash and 160 KB of RAM, operating between 1.71V and 3.6V. The board includes an integrated ST-LINK debugger, eliminating the need for an external programmer.

Why Choose This Part

The board offers full access to all STM32 I/Os through ST morpho extension headers and maintains compatibility with the Arduino Uno V3 ecosystem. Its ultra-low-power architecture allows for high-performance processing at a reduced power budget, and the on-board ST-LINK/V2-1 supports USB re-enumeration for easy mass storage or virtual COM port debugging.

Applications

Battery-Powered IoT Nodes
Leverage ultra-low-power modes and 160 KB RAM for long-running sensor applications.
Industrial Sensor Prototyping
Utilize the Arduino Uno V3 and ST morpho headers to interface with industrial transducers and communication shields.
Wearable Device Development
Design and test firmware for power-constrained wearable electronics using the energy-efficient Cortex-M4 core.
