What MCUs support the broadest range of networking protocols for diverse IoT edge deployments?
How do you evaluate the suitability of microcontrollers in terms of supporting various communication protocols, especially for diverse IoT edge scenarios?
Solution
Each high-performance grade (ARM CortexM4 and higher) microcontrollers delivers what you need. Communication flexibility—when using common communication interfaces (SPI, I2C, CAN, UART), the load is upon the communication module. Sensor integration—the same case as the previous point. Power Efficiency—all low-power grade microcontrollers deliver this feature. Security protocols—most of the time when the real security is needed, you must go for a Secure element outside of the MCU. Scalability—all high-performance grade microcontrollers deliver what you need here.
