Product details
Overview
STM32F328C8T6 from STMicroelectronics is a 32-bit ARM® Cortex®-M4 microcontroller with FPU, 64 KB Flash, 16 KB SRAM, dual 12-bit ADCs (0.20 µs conversion), three 12-bit DAC channels, and integrated rail-to-rail analog comparators and operational amplifier - deployed in industrial motor control, precision sensor signal conditioning, and closed-loop power supply monitoring systems.
For engineers reviewing the STM32F328C8T6 datasheet, STM32F328C8T6 pinout, STM32F328C8T6 application, or STM32F328C8T6 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 72 MHz CPU with DSP extensions, 1.8 V core supply tolerance, 36 5 V-tolerant I/Os, CAN 2.0B interface, and analog subsystem supporting simultaneous high-speed acquisition and real-time waveform generation.
Technical Context
The device integrates an ARM Cortex-M4 core with single-cycle multiply, hardware divide, and DSP instruction set for deterministic real-time control. Its analog subsystem includes two independent 12-bit ADCs with selectable resolution (6–12 bits), three DACs with 2.4–3.6 V analog supply, and one programmable-gain op-amp accessible on dedicated pins.
Clock architecture supports four oscillators: 4–32 MHz HSE, 32 kHz LSE for RTC, 8 MHz HSI (PLL-scalable to 72 MHz), and 40 kHz LSI. Power management enables Sleep and Stop modes with RTC/backup register retention via VBAT, and VDD operates at 1.8 V ±8% with separate VDDA (1.65–3.6 V) for analog peripherals.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| CPU Core | ARM Cortex-M4 with FPU, 72 MHz max - enables real-time DSP algorithms and floating-point math without external coprocessor. |
| Flash / SRAM | 64 KB Flash, 16 KB SRAM (12 KB + 4 KB CCM) - sufficient for complex control firmware with data buffering and interrupt latency optimization. |
| ADC Performance | Two 12-bit ADCs, 0.20 µs conversion time, 14-channel input - supports synchronized sampling of multiple current/voltage sensors in motor drives. |
| DAC Channels | Three 12-bit DACs, 2.4–3.6 V analog supply - allows independent analog output generation for reference signals, biasing, or waveform synthesis. |
| Analog Peripherals | 3 ultra-fast rail-to-rail comparators + 1 PGA-mode op-amp - enables fast overcurrent protection, zero-crossing detection, and sensor front-end amplification. |
| Communication | CAN 2.0B, 3× USART (1 with ISO7816/LIN/IrDA), 1× I2C (Fast-mode+), 1× SPI - meets industrial fieldbus and serial diagnostics requirements. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STM32F303C8T6 | Same package and pinout; lacks second ADC, third DAC, and op-amp; no TSC | Suitable for cost-sensitive motor control without analog sensor fusion or touch UI | Select when analog feature count can be reduced and BOM cost is primary constraint. |
| STM32G431CBT6 | Higher CPU frequency (170 MHz), enhanced analog (2x 12-bit ADCs @ 3.6 MSPS, 2x op-amps), same LQFP48 footprint | Better suited for high-speed control loops and multi-sensor fusion with tighter timing budgets | Choose when migrating to newer G4 series for improved performance headroom and extended analog capability. |
Compared with STM32F328C8T6, the F303C8T6 reduces analog integration for lower cost, while the G431CBT6 delivers higher compute throughput and faster analog sampling - making the F328 optimal for balanced mixed-signal applications where op-amp and DAC co-location matters.

FAQ
Does STM32F328C8T6 support USB device functionality?
No. Unlike some STM32F3 variants, the STM32F328C8T6 does not integrate a USB PHY or USB controller. Pins PA11/PA12 are unconnected internally and function only as general-purpose I/O or alternate timer/communication signals. USB connectivity requires an external transceiver or migration to an F303/F302-series part with native USB support.
What is the maximum operating temperature range for STM32F328C8T6?
The STM32F328C8T6 is qualified for industrial temperature range: –40 °C to +85 °C. This is confirmed in Section 6.3.1 (General Operating Conditions) of the official datasheet (DocID026351 Rev 3), with thermal derating applied above 70 °C for sustained 72 MHz operation under full peripheral load.
Can the internal op-amp be used in transimpedance configuration?
Yes. The integrated op-amp supports PGA mode with configurable gain (1–16×) and fully accessible terminals (non-inverting input, inverting input, output). When combined with external feedback resistor and photodiode, it functions as a transimpedance amplifier - validated in ST Application Note AN4914 for optical sensor interfaces.
Is the CAN interface compatible with ISO 11898-2 physical layer?
No. The STM32F328C8T6 implements only the CAN protocol controller (2.0B Active), not the physical transceiver. An external ISO 11898-2 compliant transceiver (e.g., TJA1042, SN65HVD230) must be used on the board to achieve differential signaling, bus termination, and ESD protection required for automotive or industrial CAN networks.
