64-LQFP package and supply range for mixed-voltage boards
The STM32F072R8T6 comes in a 64-LQFP (10x10 mm) package with 51 general-purpose I/Os. The internal oscillator saves two external crystals for most applications, though the HSE pins are still available if you need precision for USB or CAN bit timing.
48 MHz Cortex-M0 with 64 KB Flash — what the memory buys you
The Cortex-M0 core omits the hardware multiply-accumulate and single-cycle I/O of the M3/M4, so it is best suited for control loops, sensor polling, and protocol bridging rather than DSP-heavy work. The 64 KB Flash comfortably holds a USB stack plus a CANopen or Modbus RTU node.
Connectivity and analog: CAN, USB, dual 12-bit DAC
The 16-channel 12-bit ADC and two 12-bit DAC channels cover analog sensor inputs and control outputs. DMA, I²S, PWM, POR, and a watchdog timer round out the feature list for motor control or power-management tasks.
No last-time-buy notices or end-of-life bulletins are in effect. For BOM resilience, the pin-compatible STM32F072RBT6 (128 KB Flash) and STM32F072C8T6 (48-pin LQFP) are valid second sources within the same family, though the memory and package differ.
