STM8 8-bit microcontrollers

STMicroelectronics' new 8-bit microcontroller platform is designed to offer outstanding levels of performance and cost-effectiveness in a wide range of applications.

Implemented around a high-performance 8-bit core and a state-of-the-art set of peripherals, the STM8 platform uses an ST-proprietary 130nm embedded non-volatile memory technology.

ST has introduced the first STM8 family, and is going to periodically announce dedicated families or variants along the year of 2008 and 2009.

 

New core architecture boosts performance

 
Key features Benefits
32-bit memory interface and 3- stage pipeline Key for the performance improvement leads to an average of 1.6 CPI with 20MIPS peak performance
16-bit index register and stack pointer Better code density and speed when managing tables
16-MBytes linear address space No overhead for paging operations above 64-Kbytes of memory
Enhanced stack pointer operations To better support C-programming and real-time operating systems
Advanced addressing modes Big improvement for supporting C-programming, leading to better code density and efficiency
New instructions Increased speed of arithmetic operations

Technology platform

Key features   Benefits
  True Data EEPROM with read while write   No compromise with emulated E²data. The risk of data corruption is eliminated. Moreover, the read while write configuration allows accurate software management
  Up to 256 Kbytes of program memory, up to 128 pin packages, 145 °C  temperature range   STM8 is a perfect fit for strategic platform choices and facilitates  re-use of design concepts
  Large voltage range from 1.65 to 5.5V   Device families can cover a wide scope of  application segments including automotive, industrial, consumer and battery operated devices
  Multiple modular technology options   Allows to implement solutions for high speed, ultra low power, high integration level, analog performance
  Robust and proven technology   The products are designed to withstand a high level of external disturbances, leading to robust applications without the expense of external protection elements
  Multiple internal clock sources. Smart clock and peripherals management   Allows to drastically reduce power consumption and noise emission
  Compatibility across the families through modular peripheral set   Simplifies design reuse improving time to marked

Tools

Application debugging on STM8A products is easy using the advanced single-wire, integrated debug-interface SWIM. A simple USB adapter turns your PC into a powerful development tool featuring:

  • Non-intrusive debugging – no wasted target resources, no reserved
  • Real-time read and write of RAM and peripheral registers - no wait, no stall
  • Hot-plug during application execution and post-mortem debug
  • Unlimited breakpoints on all memory instructions
  • Hardware breakpoints – 23 configurations
  • Step-by-step code execution
  • Fast Flash programming
