Cortex-M4 core at 50 MHz — what the speed buys you
The MK10DN64VLH5 runs an ARM Cortex-M4 core at 50 MHz, which includes a single-cycle multiply-accumulate and a hardware FPU. That means it handles a PID loop with floating-point coefficients or a basic FFT without the software overhead a Cortex-M0 would need — the DSP extensions are real for motor-control and sensor-fusion tasks.
Memory budget — 64 KB flash, 16 KB RAM
64 KB of program flash and 16 KB of SRAM (organized as 16K x 8) give this part a tight but usable memory envelope. The 16 KB RAM is enough for a modest circular buffer or a small frame grabber.
Peripheral set and connectivity
On-chip peripherals include DMA, I2S, LVD, POR, PWM, and WDT. Connectivity covers I2C, IrDA, SPI, and UART/USART — enough for a sensor hub or a motor drive that talks to a host controller over SPI or UART.
The supplier device package is 64-LQFP (10x10), same as the case code. Surface-mount only; no through-hole variant.
