Adesto Technologies Corporation announced it has joined the STMicroelectronics Partner Program to enable optimal system operation for emerging IoT devices through the combination of its non-volatile memory (NVM) devices and the STM32 line of microcontrollers (MCUs). Adesto has been collaborating with ST to optimize the combination of the latest Adesto NOR flash memory products with STM32 MCUs to ensure customers can get to market quickly with high-performance, highly efficient systems that leverage external memory. Adesto's memories include application-specific features such as optimization for high-bandwidth, eXecute-in-Place (XiP) operation, data logging and low-power designs.

Initial power and performance benchmark results show that the STM32 MCUs are able to take full advantage of these valuable features for enhanced system performance.
