Cortex-M4 at 84 MHz — what the core clock buys you
The STM32F401RET6JTR: The Cortex-M4 core runs at 84 MHz with a single-precision FPU and DSP instructions.
Fifty I/O lines in the 64-LQFP package give enough GPIO for a mixed-signal control board with parallel LCD or external memory interface.
The base product number STM32F401 covers a range of density and package options, so if a future design needs more Flash or a smaller footprint, the migration path stays within the same family without a full software port.
