It’s a reasonable processor if you can do without on-board flash. We used it to replace some ST parts that are unobtainium at the moment. But beware that the software support is prehistoric at best, and virtually unusable on a PC. RPL just don’t/won’t understand that embedded software design is just one small part of a long chain of tools needed to produce a complete product and those tools need integrating together on a single platform, which is usually Windows at most companies. We then tried to use it (well 26 of it to be precise) on another more complex product but had to give up after a brief email exchange with their CEO and have the project on hold waiting for the ST parts to become available again.
