ARM9 MCUs run at 125 MHz

4 February 2009 DSP, Micros & Memory

NXP Semiconductors recently announced the availability of the new LPC2900 series of microcontrollers based on the ARM968 core. At 125 MHz, the LPC2900 series targets industrial networking, alarm systems and motor control applications. Building on its existing LPC291x series, NXP offers seven new members with the LPC2900 microcontroller series.

As well as offering customers high operating speeds and up to 768 KB of on-chip high-speed Flash, the LPC2900 series also includes several new features such as full speed USB host/on-the-go/device, 16 KB of true EEPROM, 5 V ADC, UARTs with RS485 and LIN support, quadrature encoder interface and motor control PWMs.

The LPC2900 series comes with an ARM968E-S industry standard RISC core operating at 125 MHz and provides performance of 1,1 MIPS/MHz with low power consumption. Additional features include dual CAN interfaces and two LIN masters, 16 KB true EEPROM, standard serial buses, plus a sophisticated PWM and two 3 V and one 5 V analog to digital converters. The family comes with up to 768 KB embedded flash memory and up to 120 KB SRAM.
