The STM8S-DISCOVERY is a quick start evaluation board which helps you to discover the STM8 features, and to develop and share your own application. It is based on an STM8S105 and includes an embedded debugger, ST-LINK, and a touch sensing button.

Even though the STM8S-DISCOVERY is built around an STM8S105C6T6, it allows evaluation of the main features of all the STM8S Access line MCUs. It includes an embedded debugger ST-Link, and a touch sensing button. The STM8S-DISCOVERY is designed around the STM8S105C6T6 microcontroller in an LQFP48 package. It has two distinct sections that may be separated, the STM8S105C6T6 module and the ST-LINK module. The ST-LINK provides a USB interface for programming and debugging using a single wire interface module (SWIM). The ST-LINK module of the STM8S-DISCOVERY also supplies 5 V and 3.3 V to the STM8S105C6T6 module.

The STM8S105xx access line 8-bit microcontrollers offer from 16 to 32 Kbytes Flash program memory, plus integrated true data EEPROM. The 8-bit STM8 core is designed for code efficiency and performance.

Key Applications: Application control and user interfaces, Medical and handheld equipment, PC and gaming peripherals, GPS platforms, Industrial applications, PLCs, Inverters, printers, scanners, alarm systems, video intercoms, and HVACs.
