Capabilities and applications

Some interesting CPU capabilities are listed below:

• Hard real time capable CPU with predictable execution using tightly coupled memory for instruction and data.
• High speed and precision PWM suitable for motor control (BLDC, Stepper, DC).
• High resolution timing measure in capture mode for some pins.
• Arbitrary waveform generation in any GPIO using DMA without CPU intervention.
• High speed DACs suitable to generate analog signals up to 18MHz.
• Tow high speed 12 bits ADC suitable to capture up to 5MSPS in any channel.
• One high speed 16 bits ADC suitable to capture up to 7.5MSPSP
• Internal RAM with multiple block partitions enabling multiple peripheral access at same time without contention.
• External high density RAM up to 8 MB connected across 133MHz QSPI bus accessible in memory mapped mode or block device mode with on the fly encryption/decryption.
• External high density FLASH up to 16 MB connected across 133MHz QSPI bus accessible in memory mapped mode or block device mode with on the fly encryption/decryption.
• Multiplexed parallel memory controller for LCD and TFT access
• LCD interface with 666, 565 and 888 RGB with hsync/vsync and pixel clk (max 150MHz)
• Parallel capture port at 110MHz
