ARM® Cortex®-M33 STM32L5 Microcontroller IC 32-Bit 110MHz 512KB (512K x 8) FLASH 48-LQFP (7x7)
Active

Overview

The STM32L552CET6 is a high-performance ultra-low-power microcontroller based on the ARM Cortex-M33 core with TrustZone for hardware-level security. Operating at up to 110MHz, it integrates 512KB of Flash and 256KB of RAM, making it ideal for power-sensitive applications that require data isolation and secure boot capabilities.

Why Choose This Part

This MCU offers a unique balance of security and efficiency, featuring an integrated SMPS for optimized power consumption and hardware-based root of trust. Its rich peripheral set, including QSPI and USB, supports complex designs without sacrificing the ultra-low-power profile required for portable electronics.

Applications

Secure IoT End-nodes
Utilizing TrustZone to isolate sensitive cryptographic keys and secure firmware from general application code.
Battery-Operated Sensors
Leveraging multiple low-power modes including a 62 uA/MHz run mode and Batch Acquisition Mode (BAM) to extend battery life.
Industrial Communications
Integrating CANbus, USB, and multiple UART/SPI interfaces for robust fieldbus and peripheral connectivity.
Medical Wearables
Combining high-resolution 12-bit ADCs and DACs with a small 48-LQFP footprint for compact physiological monitoring.
