Product details
Overview
STR911FM44X6 from STMicroelectronics is a 16/32-bit ARM966E-S-based microcontroller with dual-burst Flash (256KB + 32KB), 96KB SRAM, 10/100 Ethernet MAC, USB Full-Speed slave, CAN 2.0B, and 3-phase induction motor control. It operates at up to 96 MHz, delivers 96 MIPS from Flash, and targets industrial automation and embedded gateways requiring real-time connectivity and motor control.
For engineers reviewing the STR911FM44X6 datasheet, STR911FM44X6 pinout, STR911FM44X6 application, or STR911FM44X6 equivalent, key selection criteria include its LQFP128 package, 80 I/O pins (5 V tolerant), integrated ETM9 trace module, and dual-voltage supply architecture (1.8 V core / 2.7–3.6 V I/O).
Technical Context
The STR911FM44X6 implements the ARM966E-S core with Harvard architecture, 5-stage pipeline, and Tightly-Coupled Memories - enabling simultaneous instruction fetch and data access. Its burst Flash interface includes a 4-entry Pre-Fetch Queue and Branch Cache, reducing interrupt latency and sustaining 96 MIPS execution directly from Flash.
It integrates a dedicated 3-phase IMC with dead-time generation, emergency stop, and tachometer input; plus a 10/100 Ethernet MAC with DMA, USB 2.0 Full-Speed device controller, and dual Fast I²C interfaces operating up to 400 kHz - all synchronized via a flexible clock control unit with PLL, RTC, and multiple domain clocks (HCLK, PCLK, FMICLK, BRCLK).

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ARM9-based industrial microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STM32F767ZI | Cortex-M7 @ 216 MHz; single 2MB Flash; no native Ethernet MAC or CAN FD; uses external PHY for MII | Lacks integrated 10/100 MAC and 3-phase IMC; requires external transceivers and motor gate drivers | Preferred when higher CPU throughput and DSP performance outweigh need for legacy interface integration |
| LPC1788FBD208 | Cortex-M3 @ 120 MHz; 512KB Flash; 64KB SRAM; 10/100 Ethernet MAC but no USB device or CAN 2.0B | Missing USB Full-Speed device interface and motor control peripherals; limited ADC resolution (12-bit but no tach input) | Selected where Ethernet-centric gateway function dominates and USB/CAN/motor features are handled externally |
Compared with STR911FM44X6, STM32F767ZI offers higher clock rate and FPU but requires external components for Ethernet PHY and motor gate driving, while LPC1788 lacks USB device mode and integrated 3-phase PWM - making STR911FM44X6 uniquely suited for cost-sensitive, self-contained industrial controllers with mixed connectivity and motor control needs.

FAQ
Is STR911FM44X6 still in active production?
No - STR911FM44X6 is marked as Obsolete by STMicroelectronics per official documentation. However, Aetrix Electronics maintains legacy inventory with full traceability and provides extended lifecycle support, including obsolescence mitigation planning and cross-reference guidance for migration paths.
What development tools are supported for STR911FM44X6?
ST provides the STR9 Flash Programming Reference Manual and STR91xF Reference Manual. Supported toolchains include ARM RealView Development Suite (RVDS), Keil MDK-ARM, and GCC-based builds with OpenOCD for JTAG debugging via the EmbeddedICE® RT interface and ETM9 trace capture.
Does STR911FM44X6 support USB host mode?
No - STR911FM44X6 implements only USB 2.0 Full-Speed device mode (12 Mbps), not host or OTG functionality. Its USB peripheral is strictly slave-only, with dedicated endpoint FIFOs and DMA support for control, bulk, and interrupt transfers.
Can the 3-phase IMC drive BLDC motors?
Yes - though optimized for induction motors, the IMC's center-aligned PWM outputs, dead-time control, and emergency stop signals can be configured for trapezoidal commutation of 3-phase BLDC motors, provided external gate drivers and current sensing are added per application requirements.
