Nuvoton M2003 is a low-cost Arm Cortex-M23 MCU for AIoT and Industrial applications

Nuvoton NuMaker M2003FC development board

Nuvoton has recently launched the Nuvoton M2003 series of low-cost Arm Cortex-M23 microcontrollers which at the time of writing features M2003FC1AE and M2003XC1AE microcontrollers. Major features include a 32-bit hardware multiplier/divider, 32 KB of flash memory, 4 KB of SRAM, multiple communication interfaces (UARTs, I²C, USCI), analog peripherals (8-channel 12-bit ADC, 6-channel 16-bit PWM), and support for a wide voltage and temperature range. These features make this device useful for AIoT, industrial automation, smart homes, energy storage, and automotive electronics, and the company says the low-cost M2003 family offers a migration path from 8-bit to 32-bit designs. Feature-wise both the MCUs are the same and the only difference is in their package. The M2003FC1AE comes in a TSSOP20 package, whereas the M2003XC1AE comes in a QFN20 (3x3mm) package. The NuMaker-M2003FC development board is also offered for evaluation. Nuvoton M2003 series MCU specifications Device – Nuvoton M2003 series of MCUs M2003FC1AE […]

Nuvoton NuMaker-M2L31KI development board

Nuvoton NuMicro M2L31 is a family of Arm Cortex-M23 microcontrollers clocked up to 72 MHz, equipped with 64KB to 512KB high-durability ReRAM (Resistive Random-Access Memory) with fast write speeds, 40KB to 168KB SRAM. The microcontroller supports 1.71V to 3.6V operating voltage, can operate in the -40°C to 105°C temperature range, and offers a wide range of interfaces available through packages as small as WLCSP 25 (2.5 x 2.5 mm)  and up to LQFP128 (14 x 14 mm). Arm introduced the Cortex-M23 core in 2016 together with the Arm Cortex-M33 core, but while the latter is widely integrated in a large range of designs, we’ve seen fewer Cortex-M23 microcontrollers with some examples being Microchip SAML10/L11 (2018) and more recently, the Renesas RA0 family. Nuvoton adds another option with the Numicro M2L31 that also happens to integrates ReRAM non-volatile memory. Key Features: MCU core – Arm Cortex-M23 core running up to 72 […]
