50 MHz core — what it means for the control loop
At 50 MHz, the Cortex-M3 executes single-cycle multiply and hardware divide, so a PID loop or Modbus frame parsing finishes in deterministic time. The 8 KB RAM is the tighter constraint here: a full TCP/IP stack will eat most of it, so this part is better suited for a dedicated UART-to-sensor bridge or a single-axis servo controller than a multi-protocol gateway.
