Product details
Overview
STM32L152RDT6 from STMicroelectronics is an ultra-low-power 32-bit Arm® Cortex®-M3 microcontroller featuring 384 KB Flash, 48 KB SRAM, 12 KB EEPROM with ECC, integrated LCD driver (8×40 segments), and USB 2.0 interface. It operates from 1.65–3.6 V across –40°C to +105°C and delivers 33.3 DMIPS at up to 32 MHz, targeting battery-powered portable instrumentation and smart sensors.
For engineers reviewing the STM32L152RDT6 datasheet, STM32L152RDT6 pinout, STM32L152RDT6 application, or STM32L152RDT6 equivalent, key selection criteria include ultra-low-power mode current (0.475 µA Stop mode), 12-bit dual-channel DAC with buffers, 12-bit 1 Msps ADC (up to 40 channels), 3 op-amps, and 116 fast I/Os - all in LQFP64 package with 5V-tolerant capability on 102 pins.
Technical Context
The STM32L152RDT6 implements dynamic voltage scaling and multiple low-power modes (Stop, Standby, Low-power Run) with sub-µA retention states and 8 µs wakeup latency. Its memory subsystem includes dual-bank Flash enabling Read-While-Write (RWW), ECC-protected EEPROM, and FSMC supporting SRAM/PSRAM/NOR interfaces.
Peripherals are tightly coupled to power domains: USB uses internal 48 MHz PLL; LCD controller integrates step-up converter and blinking logic; analog block includes three rail-to-rail op-amps, two ultra-low-power comparators with window mode, and temperature sensor with calibrated VREFINT reference.

FAQ
Does STM32L152RDT6 support USB device mode without an external crystal?
Yes. The STM32L152RDT6 integrates a 48 MHz PLL fed by its internal 16 MHz HSI RC oscillator, enabling full-speed USB 2.0 device operation without requiring an external crystal. This reduces BOM cost and board area while maintaining USB compliance under specified voltage and temperature conditions.
What is the maximum number of capacitive sensing channels supported?
The STM32L152RDT6 supports up to 34 capacitive sensing channels using its built-in touch sensing controller (TSC). All channels are hardware-accelerated with programmable sensitivity, spread-spectrum modulation, and automatic recalibration - eliminating need for external touch ICs in button/slider/knob interfaces.
How does the 12 KB EEPROM differ from standard Flash memory?
The 12 KB EEPROM is a dedicated, ECC-protected memory block with byte-level erase/write capability, rated for 400k write/erase cycles and 20-year data retention at 85°C. Unlike Flash, it requires no page erasure before writing and supports true random-access updates - ideal for storing calibration coefficients and runtime configuration without wear leveling.
Can the LCD driver operate without external components?
Yes. The integrated LCD controller supports up to 8×40 segments with internal step-up converter, contrast adjustment, blinking mode, and software-controlled bias generation. Only external LCD glass and optional external capacitor (for charge pump stability) are required - no external driver IC or boost converter needed.
