 It's time for an IonMPI and special thanks for Digki for helping IonMPI happen This has been a fantastic partnership, and we are pleased to have the next IonMPI All right, we'll intro like that. I can't get wrong and Stay tuned because we will have a special treat you asked for it We have the extended version of that we'll do that right after we finish showing this week's IonMPI What is it? Okay? Well, this IonMPI is actually kind of interesting because last week we did an ST chip and Normally I try to like switch it up But I was subscribed to Digki's new products RSS feed which I recommend people go to it's in the post that will come up afterwards and I got a notice of a new STM32l4 chip and I'm also interested in new mic controllers because You definitely see like companies coming up with new chips when they see what competitors are doing and they come out with something a Little bit better. Just a little bit like a skateboard trick Improvement over the SAMD 51 and this is the STM32l4 P5 which is a totally fresh new Cortex M4 chip set from the STM32. So it's got kind of what I like It's an M4 you know with FPU and it's running at 120 megahertz and it's got a lot of pins But it comes in a bunch of different packages from like a 48 QFN all the way up to like a 196 BGA It's got like, you know five mega sample per second ADC. It's got dual DACs It's got like built-in op-amps for some reason all these like cool peripherals Do you expect it's got CAN bus which is a nice addition as he has a nice well documented CAN bus It's got full speed USB not high speeds. It's like the one thing that is kind of standard Yeah, I got a discovery board. There's also a nuclear board. You can get the chips right now They're only available the kind of two sizes, but more package the day sheet says there's more packages coming So there's this massive 144 QFP which is on the Nucleo 144 and there's also this discovery board which has the BGA which I think it's it's actually this chip in the middle here It's like a super maybe it's this chip Hold on It's this chip. Yeah, so this is like a help ultra fine pitch It's like a point probably a point four point five millimeter BGA The discovery has like all this RAM built-in, you know You like flash and and memory because it has external memory control that you can use You can it's got you know up to about a megabyte of flash 320 kilobyte of s-terms It's a nice little upgrade But the really interesting thing I saw because it's kind of got all the standard stuff, right? So what peripherals are they added that are kind of new and unique and what they added that's new is a TFT controller So this is a little unusual Sometimes we'll get chips that have like an 8-bit controller like a like a 6800 or 8080 TFT so okay, you know, you want control in iLine 93 41 This series of chips comes with a full 24-bit LCD TFT controller with the full h-sync v-sync Data enable and clock. This is unusual. I haven't really seen I don't think I've seen the Cortex m4 that has a full 24-bit LCD TFT controller and it usually that's reserved for like the Cortex m7s like we saw this added to Like the IMX RT series or the STM 32 f7 or h7 series those might have it This is interesting because the Cortex m4 so it's a you know lower power lower cost and It has a built-in graphics like pallet driver. There's all sorts of things. That's all the cool stuff Yeah, this is all the extras you can see there's that display driver And of course, you know touch you can have capacitive touch as well for it It's got you know parallel interface got camera input So all that stuff is is pretty standard, but the TFT. I think was very interesting especially since you can connect that up to a TFT to HDMI converter and Turn it into an HDMI output and again, you know that the way they manage it is there's graphic controller that has a pallet 256 colors at a time 24 bits and that's how you can actually fit You know a 480 by 272 or 320 by 320 display in memory It's still have enough memory to do what other you know connectivity wireless or Bluetooth. So nice little chip I am super interested. That's why I got the dev boards. I think we'll probably get circuit Python running on these Since it's a l4 series and we support the F4s it shouldn't be too difficult to get it working at least the basics You can pick up chips From did you key right now in addition to the nucleo board and the discovery board which I recommend because of course They're all put together and like ST dev boards are really cheap You get a lot like they're only like 20 30 bucks We get like the debugger the RAM that you know Arduino compatible footprints little adapter those plug-in grove connectors But the STM 32 L 4 p5 is the series so search for that And more packages are coming so far There's only two packages like a tons of pins But they're definitely coming out with the gonna be smaller and cheaper 48 Q of fans, and I'm very excited for those Okay, and that was I on MPI. That's right Now you all asked for it you said I like that song so much but I want more I want more so we'll premiere extended version of I am pay I The full Made by Tom who's in the UK who works with Ada for you. Here we go You know I do read the comments and someone said I want that and I said absolutely. It's great sounds. I was on MPI It's a bop. Okay
