Overview

The LPC1788FBD208K is a high-performance 32-bit microcontroller based on the ARM Cortex-M3 core, operating at frequencies up to 120 MHz. It features a rich set of peripherals including an External Memory Controller (EMC) for expanding RAM and Flash, and a dedicated LCD controller for driving graphical user interfaces.

Why Choose This Part

The inclusion of an External Memory Controller (EMC) supports static memory devices such as RAM, ROM, and Flash, as well as dynamic memories like SDRAM. It offers a high level of integration with 96 KB of on-chip SRAM and 4032 bytes of EEPROM, reducing the need for external storage components in many designs.

Applications

Industrial Control Panels
Utilizes the integrated LCD controller and external memory interface to drive complex HMIs and operator terminals.
Communication Gateways
Leverages multiple UARTs, CAN, and Ethernet capabilities to bridge industrial protocols and manage data logging.
Point-of-Sale (POS) Terminals
Provides sufficient processing power and specialized peripherals for handling encrypted transactions and user input.

Getting Started

Development is supported by NXP's MCUXpresso IDE and various third-party toolchains such as IAR Embedded Workbench or Keil MDK. Hardware evaluation can be performed using the OM13001 LPC1788 evaluation board, which exposes the 208-pin LQFP package features and external memory interfaces.
