Hi I am using below controller in one of our design
STM32G474CET3
i would like to know minimum external clock frequency on which my microcontroller works.
Also my requirement includes 1 SPI, 1 I2C and 4 ADC input sensing.
I would need very minimum external clock frequency on which it can ru,
And ultimate goal is to run 1 SPI, 1 I2C and 4 ADC input sensing at a very low current consumption for 3.3V microcontroller supply,
In datasheet its mentioned from 4 MHz, can this be used in 1 to 3 MHz range too
Also any ball park current consumption can i get for 1 SPI, 1 I2C and 4 ADC input sensing at 3.3V input to Microcontroller.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hello @sag
This MCU minimum HSE resonator Frequency is 4MHz. You can't use any other value under 4MHz.
For the Current consumption of your MCU, you may can refer to the Table 35 of the DS12288.
Ps: don't forget to read the description of the Table 35.
Best Regards.

Hi,
Why not use the HSI ?
No external clock needed at all.

The datasheet defines the guaranteed operating conditions - if says 4MHz is the limit, then that is the limit for guaranteed operation.
If you want a lower-speed external clock, there's LSE:

But, when operating with an external clock source (so not using the HSE oscillator), there is no minimum limit stated:

Note that, for low(est) power consumption, it is often better to run the microcontroller fast - so that it can sleep longer.

Our operating temperature is 180 deg C which will cause drift in internal oscillator at higher temperature.
The stability is not good at higher temperature.

That's well outside the specified operating limits:
