LPC5512 in NXP LPC Family
The LPC5512 is part of NXP’s LPC5500 series of microcontrollers, built on the high-efficiency ARM Cortex-M33 architecture. Operating at up to 150 MHz, this sub-family balances processing performance with power efficiency. It is designed for general-purpose industrial and consumer applications that require advanced integration without the high costs of specialized security or DSP-heavy variants. The family offers a streamlined feature set for developers needing a modern, 32-bit entry point into the Cortex-M33 ecosystem.
Variants in This Sub-Family
Variants within the LPC5512 sub-family are primarily distinguished by their physical packaging and pin counts, such as the HLQFP64 or VFBGA98 footprints. While the core logic and maximum clock frequency remain consistent across the sub-family, specific part numbers denote different operating temperature ranges and qualification levels suited for either standard commercial or more demanding industrial environments. Memory density is typically fixed at the lower end of the LPC5500 spectrum.
