Features
Rapid Prototyping and Expandability
The phyCORE-STM32MP15x development carrier board includes an Arduino connector, Raspberry Pi HAT connector, a STM-Motor control connector, PHYTEC’s PEB expansion and A/V connector, and the phyCAM-P parallel camera connector. Additionally, there are connectors for MIPI DSI-2, JTAG, and 2x USB-UART. This expansive set of connectors allows you to easily prototype with existing accessory and expansion board across the most popular community driven embedded ecosystems.
Designed for Industrial Control
CAN-FD, SPI, I2C, MDIO Slave, GPIO, SAI, 16-bit ADCs, 12-bit DACs, and Gigabit Ethernet are all supported on the phyCORE-STM32MP15x System on Module. Combine the ADCs and the DACs with the ST DSP library on the Cortex-M4 for real-time measurements and sampling. In addition there is support for SDIO and USB 2.0 high-speed peripherals.
STM OpenSTLinux and STM32Cube Compatible
Get started, quickly, with STMicro’s OpenSTLinux. Utilize the Yocto SDK from ST to customize your embedded BSP to exactly what you need. Already have code developed for an ST MCU? Reuse this code on the Cortex-M4 MCU based on STM32Cube firmware and run Linux on the Cortex-A7.
Energy Efficient
Power efficiency is obtained through the use of dynamic low-power states and the ability to independently run or stop the Cortex-M4 and Cortex-A7 cores. Use only the core that you need. There are also multiple low-power and deep sleep states so that you can dynamically control, from software, how much power the device is using.
