Hi, I'm in the process to design a board and an application based on the STM32U5G9ZJT6Q. I plan to disable the SMPS power supply. So I'll put the following pins to ground:
- VSSSMPS
- VDDSMPS
- VLXSMPS
I plan to utilize several GPIOs, about 90+.
At page 19 of the MCU's datasheet, I read the following: GPIOs (without SMPS / with SMPS) - NA/101 respectively.
Does this mean that I need to enable SMPS, in order to have the 101 available GPIOs ?
Or can I run them with internal LDO instead, and still have the 101 GPIOs ? (which I'd prefer, for noise reasons). Power consumption is not an issue.
Thank you very much in advance !
Cheers
Matteo

The STM32U5G9ZJT6Q is an "SMPS" chip in that it has a pinout which supports SMPS. It has 101 GPIOs whether or not you use the SMPS. The "NA" means there is no LQFP144 chip in a non-SMPS package, unlike the LQFP100 which has SMPS and non-SMPS packages and pinouts.
