The MAX32657 microcontroller (MCU) is an advanced system-on-chip (SoC) featuring an Arm® Cortex®-M33 core with TrustZone®, memory protection unit (MPU), single-precision floating point unit (FPU), digital signal processing (DSP) instructions operating at up to 50MHz, large flash and SRAM memories, and the latest generation ultra-low power radio supporting Bluetooth® Low Energy (LE) 5.4 specification. This device unites processing horsepower with the connectivity required for medical applications such as continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and other wearables. The nano-power modes increase battery life substantially.
A cryptographic toolbox (CTB) provides an advanced encryption standard (AES) engine, TRNG, and secure boot. The device incorporates the M33 core, which includes the Arm TrustZone security extension for secure yet flexible applications.
Many high-speed interfaces are supported on the device, including SPI, UART, and I2C serial interfaces. All interfaces support efficient direct memory access (DMA)-driven transfers.
The MAX32657 is qualified to operate over a -20°C to +85°C temperature range, which is ideal for medical environments. The device is packaged in a 2.621mm by2.621mm, 0.4mm pitch WLP to allow 2-layer PCBs.
