A design needs 3 UARTs, 2 SPIs and 1 I2C. A candidate offers 4 UARTs, 2 SPIs and 2 I2Cs but in a 32 pin package. The point to check is

  • A.whether the core is fast enough to service six interfaces
  • B.whether the vendor guarantees the part for ten years
  • C.whether all six interfaces can be routed to pins at once
  • D.whether the flash is large enough for six drivers

Answer: C

Correct answer: whether all six interfaces can be routed to pins at once

A 32-pin package has perhaps 26 usable I/O lines, and the peripheral count in the summary table is the number of instances on the die, not the number that can be brought out simultaneously. The multiplexing table decides it, and a part advertising more peripherals than its package can expose is entirely normal. The core speed and flash size are secondary until that is settled.
