That clock rate, paired with 1.4 MB of on-chip RAM, makes this part a fit for applications that need real-time DSP, high-speed data acquisition, or large frame buffers — think motor-control loops with fast current sensing, or a display interface handling 24-bit colour without an external SRAM. The 128 KB Flash is modest for the class, so firmware must be lean or rely on external serial Flash for code storage; the RAM is the headline resource here.
Connectivity and I/O density
The EBI/EMI interface allows direct connection to external parallel memory or FPGAs without a glue-logic latch.
The 176-LQFP package (24x24 mm) is a standard surface-mount footprint, though the 138 I/O require a multi-layer PCB with at least four signal layers to route cleanly.
Lifecycle status — EOL, last-time-buy window
The lifecycle stage is flagged as end-of-life (EOL). Procurement should plan for a last-time-buy notice.
