description STMicroelectronics STM32WLE5 Overview

The STM32WLE5 is a unique SoC that integrates both Sub-GHz and BLE radios on a single chip. This allows for hybrid mesh networks where long-range communication can be handled by the Sub-GHz radio while local interactions use Bluetooth Mesh. It is an excellent choice for industrial environments requiring extreme range and reliability.

help STMicroelectronics STM32WLE5 FAQ

Does the STM32WLE5 include Bluetooth Low Energy?

The STM32WLE5 integrates a sub-GHz LPWAN radio, including LoRa and FSK-related modulation support, but it is not a chip with an integrated Bluetooth radio. A design needing BLE normally requires a separate BLE device or module.

What wireless technology is built into the STM32WLE5?

The STM32WLE5 combines an STM32 microcontroller with a long-range sub-GHz radio suitable for technologies such as LoRaWAN. ST's datasheet lists LoRa, FSK, GFSK, GMSK, and BPSK modulation capabilities for the STM32WL family.

Can the STM32WLE5 be used for LoRaWAN sensors?

Yes, its integrated sub-GHz radio is intended for low-power wide-area applications such as LoRaWAN sensors and connected industrial devices. The final product still needs suitable antenna design, regional radio settings, firmware, and network support.
