STM32F103C8T6 Data Acquisition board

Post by rpr » Sat Oct 12, 2019 10:39 pm

For some simple data acquisition, I'm planning to get one of these STM32F103C8T6 boards: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32965348225.html. Is it possible to get MicroPython to work on these? Thanks.

Probably not as it only has 20KiB of RAM.

STM32F103C8T6 only has 64K flash. That's not enough. The smallest working port for STM32 is L073 at 192K. I have managed to get it down to 149K but I gave up trying to get to 128K.

Many thank for the response. I suspected as much that this was the limitation. I like the compact size and all in one solution if that board. Will see if I can rig up something with a an esp32, a proto board, and some terminal blocks.
