Product Families
The STM32 family of 32‑bit Flash microcontrollers based on the ARM Cortex
‑M processor is designed to offer new degrees of freedom to MCU users. It offers a 32‑bit product range that combines high performance, real-time capabilities, digital signal processing, and low‑power, low‑voltage operation, while maintaining full integration and ease of development.
The unparalleled and large range of STM32 devices, based on an industry-standard core and accompanied by a vast choice of tools and software, makes this family of products the ideal choice, both for small projects and for entire platform decisions.
- Real-time performance
- Outstanding power efficiency
- Superior and innovative peripherals
- Maximum integration
- ARM + ST ecosystem (evaluation boards, discovery kits, software libraries, RTOS)
ST's 8-bit microcontroller platform is implemented around a high-performance 8-bit core and a state-of-the-art set of peripherals. This platform is manufactured using an ST-proprietary 130 nm embedded non-volatile memory technology. The STM8 allows fast and safe development through enhanced stack pointer operations, advanced addressing modes and new instructions. The STM8 platform supports four product series:
- STM8S, mainstream MCUs
- STM8L, ultra-low-power MCUs
- STM8AF and STM8AL, automotive MCUs
- STM8T, touch-sensing MCUs
