Automotive 8-bit MCU with integrated EEPROM and LIN
It runs at 16 MHz and packs 8 KB of Flash program memory, 1K x 8 RAM, and 640 x 8 EEPROM on-chip — enough for small control loops, LIN node firmware, or sensor fusion tasks in under-hood or chassis-domain modules.
Peripherals and connectivity for body electronics
All 28 I/O are available in the 32-LQFP package.
NRND — plan for last-time-buy or alternate
That means ST is winding down support — new projects should target a pin-compatible successor or a different STM8A variant.
Temperature grade and package rework
The 32-LQFP package is a 0.8 mm pitch quad flat pack — rework-friendly with a hot-air station, but the fine pitch demands careful alignment.
