B-L475E-IOT01A IoT Node (b-l475e-iot01a)

The B-L475E-IOT01A IoT Node uses the STM32L475VG SoC which is based on ARM Cortex-M4F core. It is part of STMicroelectronics STM32 boards and more specifically the STM32L4 ultra-low power series. The STM32L4x5 chip runs at up to 80 MHz and integrates 128 KiB of SRAM and up to 1MiB of Flash. The B-L475E-IOT01A board namely features 64 Mibit QSPI Flash, BT, WiFi and RF connectivity, USART, I2C, SPI, CAN and USB OTG, as well as a variety of sensors.
