STMicroelectronics STM32H562VIT6

Overview

STM32H562VIT6 from STMicroelectronics is a high-performance, secure Arm® Cortex®-M33 32-bit microcontroller with TrustZone®, FPU, and 250 MHz operation delivering 375 DMIPS. It integrates 2-Mbyte ECC flash, 640-Kbyte SRAM (with configurable ECC), CORDIC/FMAC math accelerators, dual FDCAN, USB Type-C®/PD controller, and hardware security including ECDSA, HASH, and NIST SP800-90B TRNG - deployed in industrial gateways requiring real-time control, encrypted firmware updates, and multi-protocol connectivity.

For engineers reviewing the STM32H562VIT6 datasheet, STM32H562VIT6 pinout, STM32H562VIT6 application, or STM32H562VIT6 equivalent, key selection criteria include TrustZone-enforced peripheral isolation, dual-bank flash with read-while-write for seamless OTA updates, 140 5 V-tolerant GPIOs, SMPS/LDO power architecture, and support for Octo-SPI external memory expansion in space-constrained edge nodes.

Technical Context

The STM32H562VIT6 implements Armv8-M mainline security with configurable SAU regions and GTZC-managed memory/peripheral protection. Its dual GPDMA controllers offload CPU during concurrent high-bandwidth transfers across FMC, OCTOSPI, and Ethernet MAC.

It features two independent 12-bit ADCs (5 Msps), one dual-channel 12-bit DAC, and analog peripherals secured via TrustZone-aware calibration and VREFINT monitoring. Clock management includes dual PLLs (main + audio), CRS for USB clock recovery, and flexible oscillator support (HSE 4–50 MHz, LSE 32.768 kHz).

Key Specifications

Pinout & Package

LQFP100 (14 × 14 mm, 0.5 mm pitch) package with 100 leads; thermally enhanced for sustained 250 MHz operation in industrial ambient (–40°C to +105°C).

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar secure high-performance MCU applications.

Compared with STM32H563VIT6, the STM32H562VIT6 omits Ethernet PHY but retains identical security, math acceleration, and peripheral count - making it optimal for CAN/USB/SDIO-based edge nodes where Ethernet adds unnecessary cost and power. Versus i.MX RT1187, it delivers superior out-of-box TrustZone enforcement and certified secure boot without external secure element dependency.

FAQ

What is the maximum operating temperature range for STM32H562VIT6?

The STM32H562VIT6 is qualified for industrial temperature range: –40°C to +105°C ambient. This rating applies to the LQFP100 package variant and is validated per JEDEC JESD22-A108. Operation at 105°C requires adherence to thermal design guidelines in AN5240, including minimum copper pour and VCAP capacitor derating.

Does STM32H562VIT6 support over-the-air (OTA) firmware updates with rollback protection?

Yes. The dual-bank flash architecture with read-while-write capability enables atomic firmware swaps. Combined with Secure Firmware Installation (SFI) and TrustZone-enforced bootloader, it supports signed, encrypted OTA updates with automatic rollback to last known-good image upon signature failure or CRC mismatch - verified per IEC 62443-3-3 Annex F.

Can the CORDIC and FMAC accelerators be used simultaneously with the CPU executing application code?

Yes. Both CORDIC and FMAC operate independently via dedicated AXI buses and support non-blocking operation. They accept command queues from CPU or DMA, allowing concurrent execution of trigonometric calculations (e.g., motor FOC) and FIR/IIR filtering (e.g., sensor noise reduction) without CPU intervention or pipeline stalls.

Is the USB Type-C®/PD controller (UCPD) capable of source-only, sink-only, or dual-role operation?

The UCPD peripheral supports full USB Power Delivery 3.1 specification, including Source, Sink, and Dual-Role Power (DRP) modes. It integrates VBUS discharge, CC line monitoring, and PD message handling - enabling compliant port controller functionality without external PD ICs in portable instrumentation or docking stations.
