NXP LPC1788FBD208K 32-Bit ARM Cortex-M3 Microcontroller: Comprehensive Overview
1. LPC1788FBD208K Basics
The NXP LPC1788FBD208K is a high-performance, low-power 32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 microcontroller designed for embedded applications requiring real-time processing, high integration, and robust peripheral connectivity. Housed in a 208-pin LQFP package, this device operates at a maximum clock frequency of 120 MHz, combining a 512 KB flash memory, 96 KB SRAM, and 4 KB EEPROM for flexible data storage. Its 3.3 V single-supply operation, extended temperature range (-40°C to +85°C), and 165 general-purpose I/O pins make it suitable for industrial, automotive, and consumer electronics. The chip supports ARM's Thumb-2 instruction set, hardware division, and nested vectored interrupt controller (NVIC), ensuring efficient task management and low-latency interrupt response.
