STMicroelectronics Launches STM32U3 Microcontrollers

STMicroelectronics has announced its new STM32U3 microcontrollers, aimed at boosting smart technologies with ultra-low power consumption. Using a “near-threshold” design to improve energy efficiency, the devices are suitable for the Internet of Things (IoT), with applications such as energy meters and medical devices. Security is enhanced by sourcing secret keys at manufacturing. Technological advances double the energy efficiency of previous versions while meeting current security standards.
