Product details

72 MHz Cortex-M4 with 256 KB Flash — the mid-range Kinetis workhorse

The MK20DX256VLK7 is a 32-bit ARM Cortex-M4 MCU clocked at 72 MHz with 256 KB Flash and 64 KB SRAM. It integrates DSP and FPU, dual CANbus, USB OTG, and a 29-channel 16-bit ADC. Supply range is 1.71 V to 3.6 V. Operating temperature is -40°C to 105°C.

Memory map and peripheral set — what fits in the BOM

The 256 KB Flash and 64 KB SRAM suit a FreeRTOS or bare-metal application with a moderate TCP/IP or CANopen stack. An additional 2 KB EEPROM stores calibration constants. Connectivity includes CANbus, USB OTG, SPI, I²C, UART/USART, and IrDA — covering the interfaces a typical industrial sensor hub or automotive gateway needs. The 52 general-purpose I/O pins in the 80-LQFP package leave enough headroom for a parallel LCD or external memory bus through the EBI/EMI interface.

Frequently asked questions

What is the maximum clock speed of MK20DX256VLK7?

The MK20DX256VLK7 runs at a maximum core speed of 72 MHz.

What is the operating voltage range of MK20DX256VLK7?

The supply voltage range is 1.71 V to 3.6 V.

What is the difference between MK20DX256VLK7 and MK20DX128VLK7?

The MK20DX256VLK7 has 256 KB Flash and 64 KB SRAM, while the MK20DX128VLK7 has 128 KB Flash and 32 KB SRAM. Both share the same 80-LQFP footprint, core speed, and peripheral set, so a firmware recompile with adjusted memory map is the only change needed to swap between them.

What are the specifications of MK20DX256VLK7?

The MK20DX256VLK7 is a 32-bit ARM Cortex-M4 MCU at 72 MHz with 256 KB Flash, 64 KB SRAM, 2 KB EEPROM, USB OTG, CANbus, 29x16-bit ADC channels, 52 I/O, and an operating range of -40°C to 105°C in an 80-LQFP package.
