Overview

The STM32L431VCT6 is an ultra-low-power microcontroller based on the high-performance ARM Cortex-M4 32-bit RISC core operating at up to 80MHz. It features 256KB of Flash memory and 64KB of RAM, integrated into a 100-pin LQFP package with an extensive range of enhanced I/Os and peripherals. The device utilizes ST's proprietary ART Accelerator and FlexPowerControl to optimize execution speed and power consumption for battery-dependent applications.

Why Choose This Part

This MCU offers a remarkable balance between processing power and energy efficiency, consuming as little as 8.53mA at 80MHz. It features high-quality analog integration with 16-channel 12-bit ADCs and dual 12-bit DACs, reducing the need for external components. Additionally, the comprehensive low-power modes, including a 10nA shutdown mode, provide engineers with granular control over energy profiles.

Applications

Industrial Sensor Nodes
Ideal for remote monitoring stations requiring low power consumption and high integration of analog-to-digital converters.
Battery-Powered Medical Devices
Utilizes the ultra-low current draw in standby and stop modes to extend the life of portable health monitoring equipment.
Smart Metering
Leverages multiple communication interfaces like CANbus and USART for robust data transmission in utility meters.
Wearable Technology
The Cortex-M4 with FPU handles complex sensor fusion algorithms while maintaining a minimal energy footprint.
