New Shiratech IoT Cube BOX runs on STM32MP1 Microprocessor
Shiratech Solutions, a subsidiary of AY Electronics Group and innovator of ARM®-based Platform on Modules, announced today IoT Cube Box, an IoT gateway that offers direct and easy connection to the cloud. IoT Cube Box is the first product of its kind fitted with the new STM32MP1 series microprocessor from ST announced earlier this week. With its clever combination of MPU and software, ST assembled all the pieces to match product supply requirements – and Shiratech customers will benefit from ST’s rolling 10-years longevity commitment.
Ishay Kokavka, CEO, Shiratech Solutions, explained: “we are excited to launch the IoT Cube Box at this point in time, becoming the first manufacturer in the world to make full use of the new STM32 heterogeneous architecture. The IoT Cube Box will leverage this new microprocessor’s fast processing and real-time tasks on a single chip, achieving the greatest power efficiency thanks to its combination of Arm® Cortex®-A and Cortex®-M cores”.
Octavo Systems introduces First System in Package for STM32MP1 Family from STMicroelectronics
Octavo Systems introduced the OSD32MP1, their first System-in-Package (SiP) product based on the new STM32MP1 microprocessor from STMicroelectronics. The OSD32MP1 allows users of the popular STM32 family to move to Linux without adding size or complexity to their design. Octavo has leveraged their years of experience creating tightly integrated system building blocks to develop a device that is up to 64% smaller than an equivalent system made from discrete components. At only 18mm X 18mm the OSD32MP1 is the same size as the STM32MP1 but integrates the STM32MP1 microprocessor, STPMIC1 Power Management IC (PMIC), Up to 1GB of DDR3 memory, 4K non-volatile EEPROM, MEMs oscillators, and over 100 passives into a single BGA package.
The new STM32MP1 contains Dual Arm® Cortex®
Cortex® -A7 microprocessors along with an Arm®
-M4 microcontroller. It has a wide range of peripherals spanning from two 22 Channel ADCs, to a camera interface, to 1Gbps ethernet, to a 3D GPU, making it a great fit for remote sensors, HMI displays, motor control applications, medical systems, and IoT end points. The integration provided by the OSD32MP1 SiP makes the solution ideal for any application needing a versatile applications processor in a small package.
IoT Cube Box is designed specifically for use in smart home, smart city and white goods applications. It makes full use of the STM32MP1 series strengths, running at up to 650MHz and operating a high-performance Arm Cortex-M4 microcontroller core running at 209MHz.
“More products are being developed with the likes of Analog Devices, ST Micro and Arrow Electronics” continued Mr. Kokavka. “For example, we have released iCoMox, an open development platform for the Condition Based Monitoring (CBM) of industrial equipment, assets and structures. This product will extend the lifetime of the equipment, reduce unplanned downtime, cut maintenance costs and unlock potential for energy savings.” Another product announced by Shiratech is BodyCam, a live streaming open platform design-your-own camera kit solution.
Complementing its ARM-based products, Shiratech also provides mezzanines compatible with the industry-standard 96Boards format. As an active supporter of the 96Boards community, Shiratech has focused its mezzanine range to simplify IoT connectivity, context sensing, and machine vision. A mezzanine for developing with the Intel® MAX-10 FPGA is also available.
A team of Shiratech representatives was also present at Embedded World, where the company’s full range of products and development services were showcased.

The STM32MP1 builds on the success of the STM32 line of microcontrollers by leveraging the STM32 Cube Environment. The inclusion of the M4 allows full re-use of the STM32 MCU Cube Firmware while adding support for Linux. The OSD32MP1 integration allows users to take advantage of a full microprocessor without the increase in complexity that typically comes from routing DDR and complex power management. The ability to re-use firmware and the elimination of complexity makes the OSD32MP1 the easiest path for designers to move from a microcontroller to Linux.
“The continued push of IoT and the demand for more data has required many applications to migrate from an existing microcontroller design to one based on a microprocessor running Linux. There are usually two major hurdles that prevent this from being an easy transition; porting their application, and complicated hardware designs,” comments Greg Sheridan, Marketing Manager at Octavo Systems. “Integrating the new STM32MP1 into the OSD32MP1 removes these roadblocks, greatly reducing the effort required to migrate from a microcontroller to a microprocessor running Linux.”
Beyond simplifying the design process, the OSD32MP1 brings all the other benefits of System-in- Package to this new set of designs. These benefits include lower cost Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) by requiring less space and needing less complicated manufacturing processes, like Laser Vias or Via-in-Pad. The OSD32MP1 also simplifies the task of sourcing components by integrating over 100 devices from multiple vendors into a single component.
