Is F439/417 newer than F446?
Who knows what came when, some dates are mentioned in
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STM32If this is the case the ADC fix did not make it towards the deadline of F446 tape-out date so got delayed to the F439 instead.
In reality nobody outside ST have the slightest clue how ST handel this, we can only guess whats going on.
F415/417 are simple cut down versions of F439.
Previously i had assume 446 was cut down/fuse off peripheral/same wafer of 429 but it seams not to.
What is the F446 ADC problem?
All F4 series have a noisy ADC, there are 2 papers from ST, survey the web its lot about the issue.
I'm thinking about using the nucleo board in a project for a client.
Dont, your just asking for major problems, to get ADC reasonable you need to do a well thought out PCB layout.
Im still battling my design, noise is partly software dependent, great isn't it?.
(I'm building five prototypes for them). The errata sheet mentioned the control registers shouldn't be changed during conversions, is that it?
Certainly not.
