Objective data sheet
1. General description
The LPC408x/7x is an ARM Cortex-M4 based digital signal controller for embedded
applications requiring a high level of integration and low power dissipation.
The ARM Cortex-M4 is a next generation core that offers system enhancements such as
low power consumption, enhanced debug features, and a high level of support block
integration. The ARM Cortex-M4 CPU incorporates a 3-stage pipeline, uses a Harvard
architecture with separate local instruction and data buses as well as a third bus for
peripherals, and includes an internal prefetch unit that supports speculative branching.
The ARM Cortex-M4 supports single-cycle digital signal processing and SIMD
instructions. A hardware floating-point processor is integrated in the core for several
versions of the part.
The LPC408x/7x adds a specialized flash memory accelerator to accomplish optimal
performance when executing code from flash. The LPC408x/7x is targeted to operate at
up to 120 MHz CPU frequency.
The peripheral complement of the LPC408x/7x includes up to 512 kB of flash program
memory, up to 96 kB of SRAM data memory, up to 4032 byte of EEPROM data memory,
External Memory controller (EMC), LCD, Ethernet, USB Device/Host/OTG, an SPI Flash
Interface (SPIFI), a General Purpose DMA controller, five UARTs, three SSP controllers,
three I²C-bus interfaces, a Quadrature Encoder Interface, four general purpose timers,
two general purpose PWMs with six outputs each and one motor control PWM, an
ultra-low power RTC with separate battery supply and event recorder, a windowed
watchdog timer, a CRC calculation engine and up to 165 general purpose I/O pins.
The analog peripherals include one eight-channel 12-bit ADC, two analog comparators,
and a DAC.
The pinout of LPC408x/7x is intended to allow pin function compatibility with the
LPC24xx/23xx as well as the LPC178x/7x families.
