Datasheet

The 32F769IDISCOVERY Discovery Kit from ST Microelectronics is now available at Mouser Electronics. It 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 STM32F7 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 analogue-to-digital converters (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.

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 STM32F7 microcontroller.

The kit suits home audio, motor control, security and Internet of Things (IoT) applications.
