Six new STM32G0 cost-effective products are mass-produced!

Official announcement! In 2021, six new products of the STM32G0 series-STM32G061 / G051 / G050/ G0C1 / G0B1 / G0B0, the entry-level weapon known as the king of cost-effectiveness, will be mass-produced!

Derived from the STM32F0 gene of the entry-level low-cost Cortex-M0 core launched in 2012, ST launched a new generation of entry-level low-cost Cortex-M0+ mainstream STM32G0 in 2018, known as the king of cost performance: high performance, low power consumption, Convenient and easy-to-use features make it an entry-level STM32 development tool.

STM32G0C1, STM32G0B1 and STM32G0B0 are the first products in this series that support two CAN-FD buses. They are also the first products to support USB-C power transmission (PD) and USB full-speed data transmission. They created a new flash memory capacity record of up to 512 KB, compared to 128 KB in the previous STM32G0. The flash memory of the new model has a dual-zone design, which means that we can write in one memory zone at the same time, while the other memory zone can also execute applications, realizing the upgrade function without downtime.

The recently mass-produced STM32G061, STM32G051 and STM32G050 three products retain the flash memory configuration of STM32G041 and STM32G031, while increasing RAM to 18 KB, and adding two 12-bit digital-to-analog converters and two analog comparators.

It is very simple to experience the new features of STM32G0. STM32G0C1E-EV or NUCLEO-G0B1RE are all development boards provided by ST for STM32G0. STM32G0C1E-EV also allows developers to test ST's encryption core. Both development boards can support CAN-FD bus debugging. The evaluation kit contains two USB-C ports, one port is a dual-role power supply, which means that we can freely switch the current sink mode and the current source mode during operation, and the other supports dual-role full-speed USB, which can be used as a host or as a host Slave.

Developers can also use the ST software stack to implement Power Delivery instructions and automatically switch from host mode to device mode. ST also provides supporting equipment to protect the USB-C port from ESD. For example, TCPP01-M12 for receiver applications and TCPP03-M20 for dual role ports (DRP) can prevent overvoltage while reducing BOM costs.
