72 MHz ARM Cortex-M3 with USB OTG — what it brings to the BOM
The USB OTG peripheral is the standout feature here: it lets the MCU act as either host or device, which saves a separate USB controller chip on the BOM for designs that need to talk to USB flash drives or keyboards.
80 I/O and industrial temperature range
The 100-LQFP package brings out 80 general-purpose I/O pins, enough for parallel LCD interfaces, multiple UARTs, and sensor arrays without an I/O expander.
