STM32MP257F-DK2 availability

When will this product be available in retail ?  The ECO system already supports this board but there is no STMICRO hardware, except the EV board.

Hi,

seems distributors underestimated a bit the first demands in their plan and as soon they receive the boards they purchase from ST, their stock goes to 0 as they are probably already pre-selled.

As far as I know for this particular board, ST is ready to answer more distributors quantities (even if our core business is to provide ICs and associated SW solutions, we have logistics in place to provide a huge amount of various promotional boards every year).

 

Regards.

Today it's 1/13 2025. .Mouser zero stock. 4pcs (!) expected on 2/14

ST Shop : "No availability of distributors reported, please contact our sales office"

By my experience, local ST offices don't deal with low volume customers, so that chance is limited.

STM32MP2 announced on June 6, 2023. 18 months later... no supply. Where are all the boards ?

A35/A55 technology is a decade old. Hopefully ST will bring to the market an A55 or a more powerful MP (7 series) (pin compatible if possible)

Star date: Feb 2, 2025 :)

Mouser Stock : 0 On Order: 44, Expected 2/21/2025, Factory Lead-Time: 17 Weeks.

Digikey Stock: 0, Leadtime: 12 weeks

Element 14: Stock 0: Available to order.

44pcs ...Look like probably no chance to get one .All of them will be snatched away by someone to make a business. Are these being hand assembled ? There are MP257 boards in China already for half the price of the DK2, but BSP support is often lacking or very poor. And without an ST board you're often out of luck to solve problems. How does ST see customer pick up the interest for development on the MP2 ? Really guys, like this there is no way to start developing for this product. Do all the boards go to preferred high volume partners?
