STM32F103C6T6A Development Board

[izk]

Is there a development board for specifically STM32F103C6T6A chip, (LQFP 48). I only see 64 pin version on this site. If there is no such board, what are my options? I specifically want to avoid using bootleg versions of the chip, so want to avoid using the "blue pill".

If there are no dev board versions for this chip, are there recommendations or samples of dev boards for it that someone can recommend?

Thank you.

Hello @izk and welcome to the ST Community.

For the STM32F103C6T6A, there is not a specific evaluation board. So, the recommended evaluation board is the NUCLEO-F103RB that is based on a STM32F103RB . 

Best Regards.

Many of these chips share a common IC die, and get bonded out into different packages.

You can prototype with larger parts.

If you have to prototype with the exact device, get a break-out board for the specific SMT, and bread-board with that.

Honestly it's easier just to find a convenient proxy.

Also there are far better STM32 parts than something a few decades old already

Thank you!

I like the brek-out board idea. I can use both of your replies together.

For now I would like to experiment with this specific chip - I saw it's succesful implementation in electronically commutated motors, and would like to create a controller of my own. Since there is already a working design, I will start with that and then definitely will consider using a newer chip in the future.
