This application note describes the minimum hardware environment required to build an application around the ST10F27x, including power supply, clock management, reset control, and boot mode settings.
This document serves as a guide for hardware developers working with the ST10F27x family of 16-bit CMOS microcontrollers. It complements the ST10F27x datasheet and user manual by detailing the specific hardware requirements needed to get the device running effectively. The note focuses on the essential components of the hardware environment, including power supply configurations, clock generation modes, and reset management strategies.
| CPU frequency | up to 64 MHz |
|---|---|
| Core logic voltage | 1.8V |
| I/O peripherals voltage | 4.5V to 5.5V |
| Technology | 0.18 ym |
| Decoupling capacitor value | 10nF (max 100nF) |
The application board must provide power supply, clock management, reset control, and boot mode settings.
The V18 pin provides the internally generated 1.8V supply for core logic and requires a decoupling capacitor.
