Product details
Overview
STM32G431K6U6 from STMicroelectronics is a 32-bit Arm® Cortex®-M4 microcontroller with FPU, operating up to 170 MHz (213 DMIPS), featuring 128 KB Flash with ECC, 32 KB SRAM (22 KB + 10 KB CCM), and integrated analog peripherals including dual 12-bit DACs, dual 12-bit ADCs (0.25 µs conversion), four rail-to-rail comparators, and three operational amplifiers - deployed in motor control, digital power conversion, and industrial sensing systems.
For engineers reviewing the STM32G431K6U6 datasheet, STM32G431K6U6 pinout, STM32G431K6U6 application, or STM32G431K6U6 equivalent, key selection considerations include its 48-pin UFQFPN package, FDCAN support, CORDIC/FMAC math accelerators, 5 V-tolerant I/Os, and low-power timer architecture for real-time deterministic control.
Technical Context
The STM32G431K6U6 implements an Arm Cortex-M4 core with hardware FPU and Adaptive Real-Time (ART) accelerator enabling zero-wait-state execution from Flash at 170 MHz. Its interconnect matrix supports concurrent peripheral access without bus contention.
It integrates dual independent 12-bit ADCs (up to 23 channels, 0.25 µs conversion time) and four ultra-fast analog comparators with programmable hysteresis, alongside three op-amps configurable in PGA mode - all optimized for closed-loop analog signal conditioning in real-time embedded control.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency and corresponding DMIPS rating?
The STM32G431K6U6 operates at up to 170 MHz with an integer performance of 213 DMIPS, measured using the Dhrystone 2.1 benchmark. This performance level is sustained with zero-wait-state execution from Flash memory thanks to the ART Accelerator, making it suitable for demanding real-time control loops without external RAM caching.
Does this MCU support hardware-accelerated mathematical functions?
Yes - it integrates two dedicated hardware accelerators: the CORDIC unit for efficient trigonometric, hyperbolic, and logarithmic computations, and the FMAC (Filter Mathematical Accelerator) for single-cycle multiply-accumulate operations. These reduce CPU load in motor control and digital power applications, enabling faster loop execution and lower power consumption.
What analog peripherals are included and how are they configured?
The device includes two 12-bit ADCs (up to 23 channels, 0.25 µs conversion), four rail-to-rail comparators, three operational amplifiers (all terminals accessible, PGA-capable), and a programmable voltage reference buffer (2.048 V / 2.5 V / 2.9 V). All analog blocks share common calibration registers and can be synchronized for simultaneous sampling and precise timing alignment.
Is USB-C Power Delivery supported natively?
Yes - the STM32G431K6U6 integrates a full USB Type-C™ and Power Delivery (UCPD) controller compliant with USB PD 3.0. It handles BMC encoding/decoding, PD message parsing, VBUS monitoring, and port power state management without external ICs, reducing system complexity and bill-of-materials cost in compact adapters and docking stations.
