Product details
Overview
STM32G491VET6 from STMicroelectronics is an Arm® Cortex®-M4 32-bit microcontroller with FPU, operating up to 170 MHz (213 DMIPS), featuring 512 KB Flash with ECC, 112 KB SRAM (including 16 KB CCM-SRAM with parity), and integrated analog peripherals including three 16-bit ADCs, four 12-bit DACs, four rail-to-rail comparators, and four operational amplifiers - deployed in industrial motor control, digital power conversion, and precision sensor signal conditioning systems.
For engineers reviewing the STM32G491VET6 datasheet, STM32G491VET6 pinout, STM32G491VET6 application, or STM32G491VET6 equivalent, key selection considerations include its dual FDCAN support for automotive-grade communication, CORDIC/FMAC hardware accelerators for real-time trigonometric and filtering math, and UCPD interface for USB Type-C™ power delivery control - all within a 100-pin LQFP package rated for -40°C to +85°C operation.
Technical Context
The STM32G491VET6 implements an Arm Cortex-M4 core with floating-point unit and Memory Protection Unit (MPU), paired with ST's Adaptive Real-Time Accelerator (ART) enabling zero-wait-state execution from Flash at 170 MHz. Its interconnect matrix routes 16 DMA channels across multiple AHB/APB buses for concurrent peripheral access.
It integrates dual FDCAN controllers compliant with ISO 11898-1:2015 (CAN FD), a USB 2.0 full-speed interface with Link Power Management (LPM) and Battery Charging Detection (BCD), and a dedicated USB Type-C™/USB PD controller (UCPD) supporting VCONN switching and SOP' message handling - distinguishing it from base-line G4 series MCUs.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency and associated performance metric of the STM32G491VET6?
The STM32G491VET6 operates at a maximum CPU frequency of 170 MHz, delivering 213 DMIPS (Dhrystone MIPS) with the ART Accelerator enabled. This performance level is sustained across the full industrial temperature range (−40 °C to +85 °C) and supported by zero-wait-state Flash execution, verified per DS13122 Rev 4 Section 3.1 and Table 17.
Does the STM32G491VET6 support USB Type-C™ Power Delivery, and what interfaces are required?
Yes - the STM32G491VET6 integrates a dedicated USB Type-C™/USB PD controller (UCPD) compliant with USB PD 3.0. It requires only two CC (Configuration Channel) pins (e.g., PA13/PA14), VBUS sensing (via ADC), and optional VCONN switching circuitry. No external PD controller IC is needed, as confirmed in Section 3.35 and Figure 12 of DS13122 Rev 4.
How many analog-to-digital converters does the STM32G491VET6 include, and what are their key resolution and speed specifications?
The device integrates three independent 16-bit ADCs, each capable of 0.25 µs conversion time (up to 4 MSPS) across up to 36 channels. Hardware oversampling enables effective resolution beyond 16 bits, and the 0–3.6 V input range supports direct connection to most industrial sensors - detailed in Sections 3.18 and Table 18 of DS13122 Rev 4.
What are the low-power modes supported, and what is the typical current consumption in Stop 1 mode?
The STM32G491VET6 supports Sleep, Stop (0/1), Standby, and Shutdown modes. In Stop 1 mode (Flash powered down, SRAM retained, RTC running), typical current consumption is 2.5 µA at 25 °C with VDD = 3.3 V - measured under conditions defined in Section 5.3.29 and Table 29 of DS13122 Rev 4.
