Product details

Peripheral set — CAN, USB, and motor-control PWM on one chip

The STM32F103VCT6TR: This MCU integrates a CAN 2.0B interface alongside USB 2.0 full-speed, three SPI ports, two I²C interfaces, five USARTs (all IrDA- and LIN-capable), and a 12-channel DMA controller. The motor-control PWM timer includes complementary outputs and dead-time insertion, which is what makes the STM32F103 a common choice for three-phase BLDC and PMSM drives. Two 12-bit DACs and sixteen 12-bit ADC channels handle analog feedback from current sensors and potentiometers.

Memory and boot — sizing the firmware staging area

256 KB of Flash and 48 KB of SRAM are typical for mid-complexity applications: a motor-control stack with CANopen, a USB CDC class driver, and a few hundred lines of application logic fit comfortably.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between STM32F103VCT6 and STM32F103VCT6TR?

The only difference is the shipping medium: STM32F103VCT6 ships in a tray, while the TR suffix indicates Tape & Reel packaging for automated assembly. The silicon, firmware, and all electrical ratings are identical between the two order codes.

Can STM32F103VCT6TR be programmed with an ST-Link programmer?

Yes, the STM32F103VCT6TR uses the standard ARM Serial Wire Debug (SWD) interface, which is fully compatible with the ST-Link/V2 and ST-Link/V3 programmers. The SWD pins (SWDIO and SWCLK) are available on the 100-LQFP package, and the debug interface remains active even with the watchdog enabled.
