 Micro processors are everywhere around us, in homes, industries, cities that perform the more complex tasks in the devices we interact with every day. But, for developers, with more performance comes more complexity. We launched our MPU series in 2019, taking on the challenge of making MPU development more accessible to all. Today, with the STM32 MP13 product lines, we want to help you make your application more power efficient and more secure in an affordable way. Let me show you how. Many industrial systems need real-time performance. The MP13 delivers on this promise, thanks to an ARM Cortex A7, running up to 1 GHz, making it the fastest MP1 series yet. That said, its low power mode contributes to reducing overall energy consumption, making it ideal for battery-powered devices. Its 10x mode of only 12 µW consumes about 15 times less power than alternative solutions. The embedded power management IC regulates the power supply and reduces power consumption in the cheap. The MP13 is also the most affordable MPU yet, helping to reduce costs thanks to an attractive price point and a cost-effective PCB design. And to help you get started, the MP13 comes with PCB layout examples based on Ultram projects, but also development kits to explore product features integrated into a full development ecosystem. A unique Openestel Linux mainline software is compatible with the entire STM32 MP1 series. Yachto and Buildroot are also supported so you can easily design your custom Linux-based systems. So, what type of system are we talking about? We have made sure the MP13 platform is easy to use and application-oriented. The MP13 will support an extension of Openestel Linux to enable real-time performance in factory automation systems. For more demanding real-time applications, we bring bare-metal support and will soon enable Microsoft Azure. The MP13 is also suitable for secure applications such as payment terminals, added-obtained PCI-PTS 6.0 pre-certification, ensuring protection against physical or software attacks. The new hardware security features will increase device robustness, while ensuring strong protection of user data and security mechanisms that provide resistance to physical attacks.
