Compatibility of STM32H5 with STEVAL-MKI227KA Kit

Is it possible to use any STM32 microcontroller, particularly the STM32H5, with the STEVAL-MKI227KA evaluation kit that based on LSM6DSV16X sensor? I’ve only found information regarding the STM32F4.

Of course it is.

The LSM6DSV16X sensor neither knows nor cares what microcontroller you use - all it sees is the SPI / I²C / MIPI I3C interface.

Thanks for clarifying this issue. I have one more question, is the STEVAL-MKI227KA physically compatible with the NUCLEO-H503RB in terms of pin connections?

You'd have to look at the schematics for that.

But the STEVAL-MKI227KA is a standard DIL 24 package:

The NUCLEO-H503RB doesn't have a DIP-24 socket on it:

So you're going to have to use flying leads, or make/buy an adaptor; eg,
