Hi

1. Can a UART receive interrupt wake the STM32 MCU from Stop mode (RX line start bit) ?

2. Only a External Interrupt can wake the STM32 MCU from low power modes ?

Regards

1.2V-domain clocks are stopped in Stop mode, thus UART won't receive, thus no UART Rx interrupt occurs. OTOH, some STM32 models do have LPUART which may run during Stop mode. You did not mention the model/family you are using.

There are 3 low power modes, all of them have different options for wakeup. Read the fine manual's PWR section, Low-power modes sub-section.
