MCU selection note — STM32G081CBU6
The 48-UFQFN package with exposed pad (7x7 mm) provides 44 I/Os and includes a 17-channel 12-bit ADC and dual 12-bit DACs.
At 64 MHz the Cortex-M0+ delivers single-cycle I/O and fast interrupt response, suited for real-time control loops and communication protocol handling. The 128 KB Flash is sized for mid-complexity firmware stacks, including USB Type-C Power Delivery and multiple serial interfaces (I2C, SPI, UART/USART, LIN, IrDA).
That means no last-time-buy pressure and full manufacturer support for new designs. For dual-sourcing resilience, the STM32G0 family includes pin-compatible density variants — qualify the alternate now rather than single-source the BOM line.
Package and power delivery
Supply decoupling should follow the reference design: a 100 nF ceramic per VDD pair plus a 4.7 µF bulk capacitor on the main rail.
