STM32 Finder

STMicroelectronics International NV

About this app

The STM32 Finder application enables you to explore and connect to the complete portfolio of STM32 Arm® Cortex®-M and Cortex®-A microcontrollers and microprocessors and their associated STM32 development boards.

STM32 Finder features easy-to-use selection tools that provide you direct access to documentation, and a connection to STM32 communities. You will find the microcontroller, microprocessor or development board part number that best fit your application thanks to an easy search with multiple criteria including core type, CPU frequency, memory, price, package, I/Os, temperature grade, and peripherals such as control, timers, analog, connectivity, multimedia and security. From the application, you will also have the possibility to directly buy devices or development boards on-line.

You will have quick access to data and technical resources to support your microcontroller or microprocessor projects, including manuals such as datasheets, reference manuals, application notes, user manuals, programming manuals, or errata sheets.

While you start STM32 Finder on-line, the application and portfolio database are updated automatically and optimally, but everything will remain fully functional while you are off-line.

The application adapts automatically to the screen size and orientation.

STM32 Finder will also help you to connect with the developer communities on popular social platforms such as Facebook™, YouTube™ channel, and ST Wiki and Community.

Ratings and reviews

Overall the app is great, although advanced search functionality is hampered by the fact dropdown boxes do not allow any selections (bug?), however sliders and checkboxes work as intended. With that said, parametric and part search are practically useless without dropdown support. In app documentation for parts and applications is excellent.

So I was in bed half asleep, and I was thinking I really needed an mcu with dual CAN bus. I then thought, it would be cool if I could use an app to find it instead of messing with poorly mobile optimized websites. I was really happy when I found this app, but it crashes immediately at startup. EDIT: the developer replied to my comment a year later, I tried to install the app again, it still crashes as soon as you launch it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It's been almost 3 years since the last update and you said April last year we could expect a new release soon, "Stay Tuned" come on, lift your game I am getting an error where it says I need connectivity to download the MCU list. I have connectivity and there is no problem with any other app I have which requires internet connectivity. ST need to realise that newcomers to the MCU market will be turned off your products if you have such buggy software with little to no interest in fixing it.
