STM32F4 Series

STM32F4 series of high-performance MCUs with DSP and FPU instructions

The Arm^® Cortex^®-M4-based STM32F4 MCU series leverages ST’s NVM technology and ART Accelerator™ to reach the industry’s highest benchmark scores for Cortex-M-based microcontrollers with up to 225 DMIPS/608 CoreMark executing from Flash memory at up to 180 MHz operating frequency.
With dynamic power scaling, the current consumption running from Flash ranges from 89 µA/MHz on the STM32F410 up to 260 µA/MHz on the STM32F439.
The STM32F4 series consists of eight compatible product lines of digital signal controllers (DSC), a perfect symbiosis of the real-time control capabilities of an MCU and the signal processing performance of a digital signal processor (DSP):

• Advanced lines: 
  • 180 MHz CPU/225 DMIPS, up to 2 Mbytes of dual-bank Flash memory with SDRAM and Chrom-ART Accelerator™
    • STM32F469/479 – Quad-SPI interface, LCD-TFT controller and MPI-DSI interface
    • STM32F429/439 –  LCD-TFT controller
    • STM32F427/437 – serial audio interface, more performance and lower static power consumption
• Foundation lines:
  • STM32F446 – 180 MHz/225 DMIPS, up to 512 Kbytes of Flash memory with dual Quad-SPI and SDRAM interfaces
  • STM32F407/417 – 168 MHz CPU/210 DMIPS, up to 1 Mbyte of Flash memory adding Ethernet MAC and camera interface
  • STM32F405/415 – 168 MHz CPU/210 DMIPS, up to 1 Mbyte of Flash memory with advanced connectivity and encryption
• Access lines: The entry-level microcontrollers of the STM32F4 series!
  • 84 MHz CPU/105 DMIPS, the smallest, cost-effective solution with outstanding power efficiency (Dynamic Efficiency™)
    • STM32F401 – Less than 3 x 3mm with USB 2.0FS OTG and SDIO interfaces
  • 100 MHz CPU/125 DMIPS, outstanding power efficiency (Dynamic Efficiency™) and Batch Acquisition Mode (BAM), a new smart DMA-optimizing power consumption for data batching
    • STM32F410 – New milestone in outstanding power efficiency (89 µA/MHz and 6 µA in Stop mode), true random number generator, low-power timer, and DAC. 
    • STM32F411 – High RAM density and enhanced peripheral set such as USB 2.0FS OTG and up to 5 SPI interfaces.
    • STM32F412 – High RAM and Flash memory density, USB interface, and enhanced peripheral set including a flexible external static memory controller with up to 16-bit data bus for LCD and external memory control, dual-mode Quad-SPI, CAN, DFSDM, and TRNG.
    • STM32F413/F423 – Extends STM32F412 features with higher RAM and Flash memory density and an enhanced peripheral set including 10 UARTs, 3 CANs, SAI interface, a low-power timer, 2 DACs, 2 DFSDM with up to 6 filters. The STM32F423 includes AES encryption.
