The STM32MP1 is a general-purpose microprocessor portfolio enabling easy development for a broad range of applications, the STM32MP1 series is based on a heterogeneous single or dual Arm Cortex-A7 and Cortex-M4 cores architecture, strengthening its ability to support multiple and flexible applications, achieving the best performance and power figures at any time. The Cortex-A7 core provides access to open-source operating systems (Linux/Android) while the Cortex-M4 core leverages the STM32 MCU ecosystem.

The STM32MP1 comes with many benefits including a rich development ecosystem:

- Mainlined open-source Linux distribution with Android support available via partners
- STM32Cube firmware and embedded software libraries for Cortex-M4 core
- An optional 3D graphics processing unit (GPU) provides for advanced HMI development
- Rich set of digital and analog peripherals
- Advanced security features
- Optimized bill of materials (BOM) thanks to: High integration, packages compatible with low-cost PCB technologies (down to 4-layer plated-through hole (PTH) PCBs) and dedicated PowerManagement IC (PMIC)
- Advanced tools from ST and Partners
- Best-in-class local and online support
- Worldwide distribution channels
- Rolling 10-year longevity commitment renewed every year
