Question

[Feature Request] : Find compatible parts based on configuration (ioc file)

Background:

Using an specific MCU,  and after a board build, found that needed more memory. But a part in the "F" family with same pin out did not exists. To find another part, used the selector to select certain features to get close to a number of parts. Then went with CubeMx to check each part for the specific configuration. Found only ONE "L" family part that support the identical configuration and ONE other in the L family with just one pin to relocate.

Request:

It should be feasible for CubeMX (perhaps with AI, linear regression or just logical code) to take a certain configuration  (& package) and match with the different configuration. As the main inputs such as package and function are limited it should be quick to nail down the number of potential alternatives

Implementation:

1. Load a ioc file.

2. User provided  number of maximum mismatches pins

3. Code matches configuration with alternate parts

4. CubeMX list full pin to pin compatible, and also the one within the limit of mismatches.

Hello @debugging 

Thank you so much for this request. I've escalated immediately to the concerned team so they may consider this on the future (under internal ticket number 191572)

Best Regards.
