INTRODUCTION
The ST72324K and ST72324J devices are members of the ST7 microcontroller family. They can be grouped as follows:
– The 32-pin ST72324K devices are designed for mid-range applications
– The 42/44-pin ST72324J devices target the same range of applications requiring more than 24 I/O ports.

All devices are based on a common industrystandard 8-bit core, featuring an enhanced instruction set and are available with FLASH or ROM program memory.
