The STM32 Connectivity Line is the latest addition to the highly successful STM32 Family of ARM® Cortex™-M3 powered MCUs, adding support for high performance industry standard interfaces while maintaining pin-andsoftware compatibility with other STM32 Product Lines. Superior connectivity: Ethernet with IEEE 1588, USB OTG and dual CAN The STM32 Connectivity line makes networking economical as a result of an embedded Ethernet MAC with a dedicated DMA controller. The IEEE 1588 precision time protocol hardware support provides accurate clock synchronization over the network and retains ample CPU bandwidth to implement an embedded application.

Microcontroller

STM32 Connectivity Line 32-bit microcontroller with USB OTG, Ethernet with IEEE 1588, dual CAN, audio class I²S

USB 2.0 OTG makes the STM32 Connectivity line a turnkey solution to add a USB device, host or OTG function to a product. Firmware upgrades in the field, data logging or data storage are now as easy as connecting a standard USB mass storage device to the STM32. Adding a USB keyboard, mouse or any other device is just as easy. The dual CAN 2.0B makes the STM32 Connectivity Line a turnkey solution to implement a CAN gateway. Also since dual CAN and USB peripherals can be used simultaneously, the STM32 is the perfect fit to connect a computer or USB device to CAN networks. Superior audio: audio class I²S The two audio class I²S of the STM32 Connectivity line, combined with the embedded Ethernet and USB OTG peripherals, address the connectivity and features required of many home-audio applications. The high-quality audio is achieved thanks to a new PLL block with the two I2S peripherals, which then generate the accurate master clock for the audio DAC. The USB 2.0 OTG controller can connect any USB device, including USB mass storage devices and portable audio players. The powerful Cortex-M3 core running at 72 MHz is able to handle audio decoding of music files stored on an SD card or USB mass storage device connected to the STM32, as well as the user interface. The combination of advanced, connectivity-oriented peripherals, standard STM32 peripherals including a PWM timer, and the high processing performance of the 32-bit ARM Cortex-M3™ CPU also allow developers to consolidate multiple functions such as motor-control, user-interface control and connectivity features in equipment such as domestic appliances, building controls or industrial automation. Other applications will include systems requiring network accessibility, datalogging, or USB peripheral extension, such as patient monitors, point-of-sale terminals, vending machines, and safety or security systems

The A4403 is a buck converter that uses valley currentmode control. This control scheme allows very short switch on-times to be achieved, making it ideal for applications that require high switching frequencies combined with high input voltages and low output voltages. Low cost is accomplished through high switching frequencies of up to 2 MHz, allowing smaller and lower value inductors and capacitors. In addition, minimal external components are required through high levels of integration. Optimal drive circuits are utilized to minimize switching losses. The switching frequency is maintained constant, as the ontime is modulated by the input voltage. This feed-forward control ensures excellent line correction. The on-time is set by an external resistor pulled-up to the input supply.

Power & Battery Management

A4403 Valley Current-Mode Control Buck Converter Flexible Solution for a Wide Range of Applications

When power is initially applied and the device is enabled, a user-configurable soft-start function occurs to minimize inrush current and to prevent output overshoot. Internal housekeeping and bootstrap supplies are provided which only require the addition of one small ceramic capacitor. A top-off charge pump is also provided to ensure correct operation at light loads. Internal diagnostics provide comprehensive protection against overcurrents, input undervoltages, and overtemperatures. The device package is a 16-contact, 4 mm × 4 mm, 0.75 mm nominal overall height QFN, with exposed pad for enhanced thermal dissipation. It is lead (Pb) free, with 100% matte tin leadframe plating.

Timing

VersaClock™ III Programmable Clocks

Multi purpose clock provides many solutions including cost savings, reduced board space and greatly increased versatility VersaClock™ products allow designers to save board space and cost by replacing crystals, oscillators and buffers with a single timing device. Exceptional versatility and configurability allow for maximum freedom in the design process. There are four internal PLLs, each individually programmable, allowing for up to seven unique frequencies. These frequencies are generated from a single reference clock, which can come from one of two redundant clock inputs. A glitchless automatic or manual switchover function allows the redundant clock to be selected during normal operation. VersaClock devices are highly configurable and can be programmed through the use of the I2C interface. The programming interface enables the device to be programmed when it is in normal operation. An internal EEPROM allows the user to save and restore the configuration of the device without having to reprogram it on power-up. VersaClock products from IDT provide an almost universal solution for a variety of high performance clock applications. All Versaclock III product information, software, and support contact information can be found at: www.idt.com/go/versaclock3

www.nuhorizons.com/labcam

Portal is a monthly publication containing new products, technologies and development tools available from Nu Horizons leading suppliers. Portal is availabe both in print and on the web. Sign up online to receive your copy, be notified of upcoming issues or to request samples of the products found inside.

LabCam delivers online training opportunities in a way that recognizes the value of engineers’ time. As easily as You Tube® videos, engineers can quickly load and watch videos from industry leaders consisting of insights on products, evaluation kit overviews, end-user applications and more. Each tutorial is up to ten minutes in length and features technology experts, CEOs and/ or peers introducing new solutions or explaining integral aspects of an important product, solution or application. This free value-added program is packaged for short, informative and high quality distance learning.

Nu Horizons is proud to present our education and training program, which offers engineers the opportunity to participate in technical seminars conducted by experts focused on the latest technologies from our leading suppliers. This program provides higher velocity learning to help minimize start-up time to quickly begin your design process utilizing the latest development tools, software and products. Check online for the latest seminar schedule.

Nu Horizons Online Learning Center is designed to provide a complete training experience for engineers — without having to leave the office. New supplier trainings are posted twice a month and range from new product overviews to in-depth technical training and potential design implementations. These live trainings are recorded and archived for your viewing convenience.

In order to simplify the design process, Nu Horizons has created a series of application notes designed to guide engineers through the process of interfacing different devices together. Using a detailed step-by-step approach, these design guides identify key elements in the design process. Topics in the application notes are organized by design task and each topic is a stand-alone section, with a short introduction or overview, followed by the step-by-step design guidelines. All steps include a sufficient level of detail to provide the designer with relevant information to proceed quickly and easily from start to finish.

Nu Horizons offers a wide range of development / evaluation boards, tools and kits featuring the latest technology from the most trusted suppliers in the industry. Visit the development tool section of our website for a variety of solutions all aimed at providing a low-cost solution for designers to accelerate a product’s time-to-market.
