Here are several similar or replaceable products:
1. STM32F103 series
STM32F103C8T6: This is a lower-end model in the STM32F103 series, with fewer resources, but the basic features (ARM Cortex-M3 core, peripheral interfaces) are similar to the STM32F103RCT6.
STM32F103RET6: Similar to the STM32F103RCT6, with the same pin layout and peripherals, but with larger Flash and SRAM capacity.
STM32F103VET6: The pin count is expanded to provide more GPIO and peripheral interfaces, but the basic performance is similar.
Other models of the STM32F1 series
STM32F101RCT6: The STM32F101 is the "value line" product of the STM32F1, with a slightly lower processor frequency (36 MHz) and peripheral functions similar to the STM32F103RCT6, but with slightly inferior performance.
STM32F105RCT6: The STM32F105 belongs to the Connectivity Line, with stronger peripheral support, including USB OTG and Ethernet functions, suitable for more connected applications.
2. Other STM32 series microcontrollers
STM32F303RCT6: The STM32F3 series is similar in performance and functionality, and has stronger floating-point computing capabilities, but is still suitable for most STM32F103 applications.
