Product details

80 MHz Cortex-M4 with 256 KB Flash — what this means for the BOM

The STM32L431RCT6: It belongs to the STM32L4 ultra-low-power series, designed for applications where active compute throughput and standby current both matter — think sensor-fusion nodes, battery-operated industrial controllers, and communication gateways that need to run a real-time OS and still hit years of coin-cell life.

Industrial temperature grade and where this part lives

That 85°C ceiling covers most commercial and light-industrial deployments.

Connectivity and peripheral set — what is on the bus

This MCU carries CANbus, I²C, IrDA, LINbus, MMC/SD, QSPI, SAI, SPI, SWPMI, and UART/USART interfaces. The QSPI interface is worth calling out: it lets you attach external serial Flash or PSRAM for data logging or OTA staging without chewing up GPIO for a parallel bus.

The ROHS3 compliance is confirmed on the product marking, so it passes EU and global restricted-substance requirements without a waiver.

Package and mounting — 64-LQFP footprint details

A formal RFQ is the fastest way to lock a price break and delivery window for your BOM line.

Frequently asked questions

What is the maximum operating frequency of STM32L431RCT6?

That 80 MHz ceiling gives enough throughput for real-time sensor fusion, PID loops, and protocol stacks without needing an external crystal for the core clock.

What is the equivalent part to STM32L431RCT6?

A functional peer within ST's portfolio is the STM32L151CBU6A, which uses an ARM Cortex-M3 core at 32 MHz with similar peripheral set (I²C, SPI, UART, USB) and the same 12-bit ADC/DAC resolution. The STM32L431RCT6 offers roughly 2.5x the core clock speed and a richer connectivity set including CAN and QSPI, so the choice depends on whether your firmware needs the Cortex-M4 DSP extensions and higher throughput.
