I found it interesting already that things like STM32F4 are called
"microcontroller" (instead of e.g. SoC)<br>
</p>
<p>Now they announced these things, with 2.5 MB SRAM and a "2.5D
GPU" to provide modern user interfaces without taxing the general
purpose computing core so much.</p>

<p>The "GPU"<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://blog.st.com/neochrom-gpu/">https://blog.st.com/neochrom-gpu/</a></p>
<p>I looked at a particular "smaller" one ("Only" 100 pin LQFP ;) ),
has a Cortex M33 core with FPU, TFT LCD + touch sense controllers,
CORDIC + FMAC math accelerators.<br>
Has also some analog stuff on board: comparators, opamps, and next
to the 12bit I knew also 14-bit-ADCs.<br>
32bit timers.<br>
Mouser quotes it at 10.57 € when buying 540 pcs. (availabnle in Q2
2023, supposedly)<br>

<p>I guess if and when they'll be throwing around Nucleo devboards
with those, I might fetch me one to play ;)</p>
