The STM32F417IET6 is an STM32F4-series 32-bit MCU built around an ARM Cortex-M4 core with FPU, clocked at 168 MHz. It packs 512 KB of Flash and 192K x 8 of SRAM, giving enough headroom for protocol stacks, sensor fusion, or motor-control loops without external memory. The 176-LQFP package (24x24 mm) keeps the footprint manageable for hand-assembly or rework while offering 140 I/O lines.
Ethernet and CANbus onboard — what that means for system architecture
That Ethernet + CAN combo is rare in the mid-density STM32F4 line — it lets a single MCU handle an industrial gateway node or an automotive domain controller without an external network coprocessor.
Housed in a 176-LQFP (24x24 mm) with 0.5 mm pitch, this is a hand-solderable package — no X-ray inspection needed, unlike BGA equivalents. MSL rating is standard for ST's LQFP; confirm floor life on the reel label before a reflow run.
