Overview

The STM32L072CZT6 is an ultra-low-power 32-bit microcontroller based on the Arm Cortex-M0+ core, operating at frequencies up to 32MHz. It features 192KB of Flash memory and a crystal-less USB 2.0 interface, making it an efficient choice for battery-operated devices requiring connectivity without external clock components.

Why Choose This Part

This MCU offers a high memory-to-power ratio with 192KB Flash and 20KB RAM while maintaining extremely low standby currents. The inclusion of 6KB of true data EEPROM and a crystal-less USB controller simplifies hardware design and reduces external component count.

Applications

Battery-Powered IoT Sensors
Utilizes low-power modes down to 0.29 uA and integrated EEPROM for long-term data logging in remote environments.
USB Peripherals
The crystal-less USB capability reduces BOM cost and PCB footprint for PC accessories and industrial dongles.
Capacitive Touch Interfaces
Integrated capacitive sensing support allows for the implementation of touch keys and sliders on consumer devices.
Medical Wearables
The small 48-LQFP footprint and low active current of 93 uA/MHz are ideal for portable diagnostic and monitoring equipment.
