Introduction

STM32Cube is an STMicroelectronics original initiative to improve designer productivity significantly by reducing development

effort, time, and cost. STM32Cube covers the whole STM32 portfolio.

STM32Cube includes:

• A set of user-friendly software development tools to cover project development from conception to realization, among

which are:

– STM32CubeMX, a graphical software configuration tool that allows the automatic generation of C initialization code

using graphical wizards

– STM32CubeIDE, an all-in-one development tool with peripheral configuration, code generation, code compilation,

and debug features

– STM32CubeCLT, an all-in-one command-line development toolset with code compilation, board programming, and

debug features

– STM32CubeProgrammer (STM32CubeProg), a programming tool available in graphical and command-line

versions

– STM32CubeMonitor (STM32CubeMonitor, STM32CubeMonPwr, STM32CubeMonRF, STM32CubeMonUCPD),

powerful monitoring tools to fine-tune the behavior and performance of STM32 applications in real time

• STM32Cube MCU and MPU Packages, comprehensive embedded-software platforms specific to each microcontroller

and microprocessor series (such as STM32CubeN6 for the STM32N6 series), which include:

– STM32Cube hardware abstraction layer (HAL), ensuring maximized portability across the STM32 portfolio

– STM32Cube low-layer APIs, ensuring the best performance and footprints with a high degree of user control over

hardware

– A consistent set of middleware components such as ThreadX, FileX, LevelX, NetX Duo, USBX, USB PD, video

encoder API, and OpenBL

– All embedded software utilities with full sets of peripheral and applicative examples

• STM32Cube Expansion Packages, which contain embedded software components that complement the functionalities of

the STM32Cube MCU and MPU Packages with:

– Middleware extensions and applicative layers

– Examples running on some specific STMicroelectronics development boards

This user manual describes how to get started with the STM32CubeN6 MCU Package.

Section 2: STM32CubeN6 main features describes the main features of the STM32CubeN6 MCU Package.

Section 3: STM32CubeN6 architecture overview provides an overview of the STM32CubeN6 architecture and the MCU

Package structure.
