Powerful, easy-to-use kit is starting point for beginners and developers

Mouser is now stocking the 32F769IDISCOVERY Discovery Kit from STMicroelectronics (ST), which provides an easy-to-use development platform for the STM32F7 series of high-performance microcontrollers. This new development tool includes an onboard 4-inch QWVGA 800×400 MIPI-DSI display with a capacitive touchscreen, and takes advantage of the STM32CubeMX initialisation tool, STM32CubeF7 embedded software package, and a full set of demo software libraries for reduced development efforts, time, and cost. The kit is a powerful, easy-to-use starting point for both beginners and experienced developers to quickly get started developing applications for the microcontroller series. The board includes an STM32F769NIH6 microcontroller, which features a 216 MHz/462DMIPS/1082 CoreMark ARM Cortex-M7 core, 2 MBytes of flash, 512+16+4 KBytes of RAM, ST’s Chrom-ART Accelerator for high-performance graphics, support for USB 2.0 with OTG, Ethernet, and three 12-bit ADCs. With these features as well as an L1 cache, ST STM32F7 devices deliver the maximum theoretical performance of the ARM Cortex-M7, whether code is executed from embedded flash or external memory. The full range of hardware features on the board include Arduino Uno Rev 3 connectors, MEMS digital microphones, and SPDIF RCA input. The board also features two micro-USB jacks, MicroSD card connector, RJ45 connector, and 3.5mm audio input and output. The integrated ST-LINK/V2-1 via mini-USB connector provides an embedded in-circuit debugger and programmer for the microcontroller. The features of the kit make it ideal for home audio, motor control, security, and Internet of Things (IoT) applications.
