Spring cleanup
30
Apr
2024
This has been a spring month with the proverbial clean-up at Microchip and SiliconLabs. Microchip is retiring parts in the PIC16/18 and PIC32 with in most cases pin-compatible replacements, while SiliconLab is getting rid of its Cortex-M3-based Sim3 portfolio. ST continued its expansion in the mid-range with more Cortex-M33 MCUs in the STM32H523/533 family.

Microchip
Microchip NRNDed close to 2,000 part numbers across its portfolio. Over half of the cuts were in the PIC16Cx, PIC16F1/6/8 and PIC16LC/LF/LV families, a quarter in the PIC17C/LC, PIC18C/F/LC/LF and PIC32MK/MZ with the last quarter scattered on the PIC12, PIC14 and DSPIC30/33.

Renesas
Renesas released the RA0E1 group in the RA family of Cortex-M MCUs. The RA0E1 group is a basic, simple MCU in the entry line of the RA0 series, with a 32MHz Cortex-M23 core, up to 64KB of Flash and a supply voltage range of 1.6V to 5.5V. Overall 126 new parts were unveiled.

SiliconLabs
SiLabs is retiring its one of its Cortex-M3 family (34 part numbers), the SIM3C/3L/3U. It is now NRND.
It also released the EFR32BG22E, an AEC-Q100 grade 1 (-40, +125C) certified family, similar to the EFR32BG22, without a secure boot or a secure debug (dubbed “base security”).

ST Microelectronics
ST added a couple dozen new products this month with a focus on filling a gap in its STM32H5 family, between the STM32H50x and the STM32H56x. 21 STM32H52/53 squeezed in the hole, they have essentially the same features as their siblings, with a different memory setup:

- Cortex-M33 with TrustZone at 250MHz
- Up to 512 kB of Flash and 272 kB of RAM
- Crypto acceleration is available
Texas Instruments
TI released about a dozen variants in the MSPM0L130x and M0L11/13 families.
