INTRODUCTION
The STM32Lxx series, based on the Cortex-M3 core running at 32 MHz, extends the ultra low power portfolio in performance, features, memory size and package pin count.
The STM32Lxx series combines performance and ultra low power consumption, using optimized architecture and our proprietary ultra low leakage process, shared with the STM8L family.
The STM32Lxx series is available in two different lines (STM32L151 and STM32L152), so optimizing the STM32F and STM8L families for many applications requiring performance with special care on power savings.
  • Lowest power mode: 0.27 µA
  • Dynamic run mode: 230 µA/MHz

  • ARM Cortex‐M3 32 MHz CPU
  • 32 to 384 KFlash, up to 48 KSRAM
  • and up to 12 KEEPROM
  • Three lines: pin‐to‐pin, software and peripheral compatibility
  • Pin‐to‐pin compatibility with STM32F series (except VBAT not present on the STM32L)
  • Ultra‐low energy consumption: down to 180 μA/DMIPS from Flash
  • Supply voltage: 1.65 to 3.6 V
  • Six ultra‐low‐power modes: down to 300 nA
  • Ultra‐low‐power dynamic modes: low‐power run down to 9 μA; low‐power sleep down to 4.9 μA with one timer
  • Economical Run mode consumption down to 230 μA/MHz from Flash at zero‐wait state with dynamic voltage scaling (3 ranges)
  • Rich set of high‐end analog and digital peripherals
  • ‐40 to +105 °C operating temperature range
  • STM32L151 standard family
  • STM32L152 has an additional LCD-segment driver
  • STM32L162 embeds a 128-bit AES

Supply monitoring and resets
  • Full reset circuitry, supply monitoring
    Power‐on reset & Power‐down reset, permanently enabled (zero power)
    Brown‐out detection (BOR) can be on or off in low‐power modes
    BOR complies with all VDD rise/fall times, so no constraints on power supply shape.
    When BOR is not activated, the STM32L starts at VDD = 1.65 V.
    Programmable voltage detection can be on or off
  • Extended battery lifetime down to 1.65 V

 Power-Saving Features and Benefits
The STM32L lines propose 6 different ultra‐low‐power modes to offer users a high level of flexibility depending on their application. In addition, the dynamic run consumption has been optimized.


Low‐power run mode:
CPU is still running
Execution is done from RAM with a low‐speed oscillator (RTC or internal)
Consumption is 9 μA typical

Low‐power sleep mode:
offers the possibility of keeping the RTC and a few other peripherals active (such as the timer) with a consumption of 4.9 μA typical with one timer activated.
The Flash is switched off and the regulator is put into ultra‐low‐power, the CPU is stopped, the RTC and peripherals can be activated.

Stop modes (2 modes):
The CPU, main clocks and peripherals are off
The RTC can be on or off (2 modes)
Wake up can be done through an interrupt on the peripherals
SRAM and context are kept

Standby modes (2 modes):
The CPU, main clocks and peripherals are off
The RTC can be on or off (2 modes)
Backup registers are preserved
Wake up can be done through wake‐up pins

STM Touch-Sensing Library
STMicroelectronics’ touchsensing software library is a complete, free-of-charge sourcecode solution to transform any 32-bit STM32L microcontroller into a capacitive touch-key controller.
This library controls the embedded charge transfer hardware driver, offers advanced filtering algorithms and touchkey management in various user cases.
Designers can combine the touch-sensing function with multiple configurations (touch keys, wheels, sliders) and the traditional MCU features (communication, LED control, beeper, LCD control).
