180 MHz Cortex-M4 with 512 KB Flash — what it means for the BOM
The STMicroelectronics STM32F446ZEH7TR is a 32-bit ARM Cortex-M4 MCU from the STM32F4 series, clocked at 180 MHz with 512 KB Flash and 132 KB RAM. It carries 114 I/O lines, a full communications suite including USB OTG, CANbus, I²C, SPI, and UART, plus 24-channel 12-bit ADC and dual 12-bit DAC. Rated for -40°C to 105°C and 1.7 V to 3.6 V supply, it targets industrial control, motor drives, and outdoor telecom equipment where the extended temperature range and peripheral density matter.
Industrial temperature and BGA footprint — design constraints
The 144-UFBGA (10x10 mm) package saves board area but demands careful PCB layout. The -40°C to 105°C operating range covers most factory-floor and outdoor enclosures.
Active production — no LTB concern
This part carries an Active product status per the manufacturer. No last-time-buy or end-of-life notice is in effect, so it remains suitable for new designs and production BOMs. Sourced and quoted to order through independent distribution; availability and current pricing confirmed at quote time.
