Power efficient STM32L0 MCUs from ST available in volumes

The latest STM32L0 microcontrollers from STMicroelectronics, now fully qualified and in stock at ST and at appointed distributors, enable customers’ applications to achieve record low power consumption, The micros leverage a combination of the energy-efficient ARM Cortex-M0+ core, optimized architecture, power-management modes, ultra-low-power peripherals, support for energy-saving USB features, and proprietary ultra-low-power process technology to keep applications running. With run consumption down to 87µA/MHz, 440nA stop mode with full RAM data retention, a low-power time counter, and fast wakeup time of 3.5µs the STM32L0 allows applications to maximize use of energy-saving modes. The STM32L0 series enables designers of products such as computer peripherals, healthcare monitors and trackers, industrial sensors, and smart-home devices to deliver market-leading battery life and create slim and lightweight new styles. Where other devices suffer rapidly increasing current consumption at higher temperatures, ST’s unique process technology maintains stability over a wide temperature range, ensuring these devices offer the world’s lowest power consumption at 125°C. The STM32L0 series also has the world’s lowest Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) power consumption. The 12-bit on-chip ADC draws only 48µA when operating at 100ksample/s. Built-in hardware oversampling increases the A...
