Mouser – Fastest 32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 microcontrollers to perform at 180MHz (NXP Semiconductors LPC1800 series)

NXP Semiconductors LPC1800 series 32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 microcontrollers are now available from Mouser stock. They are the industry’s fastest Cortex-M3 MCUs with processor frequencies of up to 180MHz.

The LPC1800 MCUs are manufactured using the same ultra-low leakage 90nm technology as the LPC4300 series Cortex-M4 MCUs and are also pin- and software-compatible with many same key features.

The LPC1830 and LPC1850 MCUs feature advanced peripherals, such as Ethernet, high-speed USB 2.0 Host/OTG/Device, LCD controller, and CAN 2.0B. There are also two new innovative peripherals: a flexible quad-SPI interface and a state configurable timer subsystem. LPC1800 devices offer up to 1MB of flexible dual-bank Flash for highly reliable in-application re-programming and non-stop Flash operation. NXP LPC1830 and LPC1850 MCUs include up to 200kB of on-chip SRAM provided in multiple banks, says the company.

Typical applications include industrial, consumer, white goods, RFID readers and e-metering.
