84 MHz Cortex-M4 with 256 KB Flash — what that buys the design
The STM32F401VCT7 100-LQFP package brings out 81 I/O lines, enough to handle a TFT display parallel bus alongside USB OTG and several UARTs without pin-mux gymnastics.
The base product number STM32F401 covers a range of Flash and RAM options in the same footprint, so if a future spin needs more memory the migration path stays within the same 100-LQFP board layout.
