Since most of my clients don't care for closing their production for a couple of years, I am looking for replacements for the STM32F4x7x.
Most important features being ARM M3 or M4 CPU and at least 512kB FLASH. LQFP100 or LQFP144 packages, rather than BGA, would be a nice.
Required peripherals: Ethernet, USB, USART, SPI, Timers.
Firmware: freeRTOS or bare metal / CMSIS.
Chinese components are not an option, for reasons which I am not going to discuss in this thread.
We are aware of other CPU families, however for several reasons we would like to stay with ARM.
For starters I had a look at NXP, where the largest (available) MCU was some M4 with 256kB Flash or even ROMless.
Since this is a common topic for designers at the moment, I am looking forward to your thoughts.
