The STM32 Nucleo-F4 board offers high performance with adaptive real time accelerator for new concepts and rapid prototyping using 32 bit ARM Cortex M4 microcontroller with memory protection capability. The board has 512 KB flash memory and 96 KB SRAM.

The devices has following features: one 12-bit ADC, a low-power RTC, six general-purpose 16-bit timers including one PWM timer for motor control, two general-purpose 32-bit timers

The STM32 Nucleo-F303K8 boards integrate an ST-Link debugger/programmer with separate selection-mode switch which enable the board to be used as a standalone ST-LINK/V2-1 and USB 2.0 full-speed device/host/OTG controller with on-chip PHY.STM32 Nucleo boards can be used with wide range of development environments including IAR EWARM, Keil MDK-ARM, mbed and GCC/LLVM-based IDEs.
