The STM32WBA2x is the most affordable STM32 wireless MCU supporting the latest protocols (Bluetooth® LE*, IEEE 802.15.4 communication protocols, Zigbee®, and Thread). It delivers a rich feature set in a compact, energy-efficient design, ideal for cost- and energy-sensitive wireless applications.
The line offers a 64 MHz Arm Cortex®-M33 CPU with TrustZone®, 512 Kbytes of flash memory, 96 Kbytes of RAM, and is available in three packages: 32-pin and 48-pin UFQFPN, and 37-pin WLCSP.
It also provides pin-to-pin compatibility with the STM32WBA55Cx (UFQFPN 48 package) and STM32WBA52Kx & STM32WBA54Kx microcontrollers (UFQFPN 32 package), enabling straightforward product cost optimization across generations.
With best-in-class +10 dBm output power, support for USB full-speed, and a Q-SPI interface with on-the-fly decryption, the STM32WBA2x offers exceptional value and flexibility for a wide range of short-range wireless applications.
Compliant with RED, CRA and US Security standards, these MCUs meet stringent regulatory requirements, ensuring global applicability.
A rich ecosystem including hardware, embedded software, software tools, and documentation, helps you quickly kick-start your wireless application design.
