Under-hood 8-bit control with AEC-Q100 pedigree
It runs at 16 MHz from an internal oscillator, with 64 KB of program Flash, 4K x 8 RAM, and 2K x 8 EEPROM — enough headroom for body-control modules, LIN-node actuators, and sensor-fusion nodes that must survive under-hood thermal cycling.
Peripheral set for mixed-signal automotive subsystems
The brown-out detect, POR, and watchdog peripherals are built in, so a simple supply filter and a few passives complete the minimum BOM.
That means it remains available for existing production runs but is no longer the target for new project qualifications. For a new design, the STM8A family includes pin-compatible siblings with similar Flash and RAM footprints; cross-referencing the 48-LQFP package and AEC-Q100 grade against current STM8A portfolio documents will identify the active successor.
