LPC1778FBD208K | NXP

ARM Cortex microcontroller, LPC1778FBD208K, NXP

The LPC1778FBD208K microcontroller is an ARM Cortex-M3-based microcontroller for embedded applications requiring a high level of integration and low power dissipation. The ARM Cortex-M3 is a next-generation core that offers better performance than the ARM7 at the same clock rate, along with system enhancements such as modernized debug features and a higher level of support block integration. The ARM Cortex-M3 CPU incorporates a 3-stage pipeline and uses a Harvard architecture with separate local instruction and data buses, as well as a third bus with slightly lower performance for peripherals. It also includes an internal prefetch unit that supports speculative branching. The LPC1778FBD208K adds a specialized flash memory accelerator to achieve optimal performance when executing code from flash. It operates at CPU frequencies of up to 120 MHz.
