Overview

The STM32F100C8T6B is a 32-bit Value Line microcontroller featuring an ARM Cortex-M3 core running at up to 24MHz. It is designed for cost-sensitive applications, providing 64KB of Flash memory and 8KB of RAM in a compact 48-LQFP package. This MCU balances low power consumption with a robust set of peripherals, including dual 12-bit DACs and a 10-channel 12-bit ADC.

Why Choose This Part

This microcontroller offers a cost-effective entry point into the ARM Cortex-M3 ecosystem with a supply voltage range of 2V to 3.6V. Its inclusion of high-resolution 12-bit DACs and an HDMI CEC interface provides specialized functionality often missing in other entry-level MCUs. Additionally, 37 I/O pins in a 7x7mm footprint maximize design flexibility in space-constrained layouts.

Applications

Consumer Appliances
Ideal for control logic in white goods and household electronics due to integrated timers and 5V-tolerant I/O.
Industrial Sensor Hubs
Aggregates data from multiple sensors using its 12-bit ADC and communicates via I2C, SPI, or USART.
HVAC Controllers
Manages temperature regulation and fan control using the built-in temperature sensor and PWM-capable timers.
Handheld Medical Devices
Suited for portable equipment requiring low-power standby modes and integrated DACs for analog waveform generation.
