Explain Output Speed STM32U575

[ScottD]

I am working on the firmware for my STM32U575 based controller board. I cannot find in the documentation an explanation about the Low/Medium/High settings on a GPIO port. I see the bits to be set, and in MX the option for choosing the setting, but I cannot find an explanation regarding when to use Low vs Medium vs High speed. What is affected by choosing the different speeds? is it rise/fall time, response time, power drive,...? I tried to find a table or something that explains the difference so I can determine whether I need to go to medium or high speed for various signals. What is the purpose of having these speed settings?

It is in the DS13737 Rev 10 STM32U575xx data sheet Table 96 ff. Output AC characteristics...

Dear @ScottD ,

to complement the information given by @KnarfB  which available in the datasheet . The I/O speed will act on the rise/fall time and you can see the effect especially with VDD 3,3 range or 1,8V ranges and also on the Bus/line Load such as 15pF, 30pF .  In general, if no High speed I/F are required it is recommended to use the lowest speed to minimise EMI and  signals reflection especially when the line impedance are not matching the drive . You can also use our IBIS models for advanced simulation for PCB/Board design https://www.st.com/resource/en/application_note/an4803-highspeed-si-simulations-using-ibis-and-boardlevel-simulations-using-hyperlynx-si-on-stm32-mcus-and-mpus-stmicroelectronics.pdf and you can see the effect of the speed .

Hope it helps you
