8-bit MCU with integrated LCD drive for low-power instrumentation
The STMicroelectronics STM8L152C6T6 is an 8-bit microcontroller from the STM8L EnergyLite family, built around the STM8 core. The part integrates a segment LCD controller, a 25-channel 12-bit ADC, and a single 12-bit DAC, making it suited for metering, portable instrumentation, and human-machine interface panels where a direct-drive glass LCD is needed without an external display driver.
With 41 general-purpose I/O lines in a 48-pin LQFP package, the STM8L152C6T6 provides enough headroom for a small keypad, indicator LEDs, and a parallel LCD data bus alongside the serial interfaces. An internal oscillator is available, reducing external BOM count for cost-sensitive designs.
