Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM3S1968-IQC50-A2 | Same 50 MHz Cortex-M3 core, 256 KB Flash, 64 KB SRAM; adds hibernate module with battery-backed RAM but omits integrated Ethernet PHY. | Preferred for ultra-low-power battery-operated gateways where Ethernet is replaced by Wi-Fi or cellular modem; lacks native 10/100 PHY for direct RJ45 connection. | Select LM3S1968 when hibernate duration and RAM retention outweigh need for embedded Ethernet PHY; use LM3S1435 when reducing BOM count and PCB area for wired industrial networking is critical. |
| LM3S6965-IQC50-A2 | Identical 48-pin LQFP package and peripheral set, but with 256 KB Flash, 64 KB SRAM, and no integrated Ethernet PHY - requires external PHY for 10/100 connectivity. | Suitable for cost-sensitive CAN/USB-only applications like motor drives or medical pumps where Ethernet is optional or implemented externally. | Choose LM3S6965 if Ethernet is not required or will be added via external PHY; LM3S1435 avoids layout complexity and signal integrity challenges of external MII/RMII routing. |
Compared with LM3S1968 and LM3S6965, the LM3S1435-IQC50-A2T uniquely integrates a full 10/100 Ethernet PHY with IEEE 1588, enabling direct RJ45 connectivity and sub-microsecond time synchronization - a differentiating factor for deterministic industrial Ethernet deployments requiring minimal external components.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the LM3S1435-IQC50-A2T?
The LM3S1435-IQC50-A2T operates at a maximum CPU frequency of 50 MHz, as confirmed by its "IQC50" suffix (Industrial grade, 50 MHz). This speed is sustained across the full –40°C to +85°C temperature range and supports deterministic real-time execution with 1.25 DMIPS/MHz performance. The part uses an internal precision oscillator and supports PLL-based clock generation for consistent timing in industrial environments.
Does the LM3S1435-IQC50-A2T include an integrated Ethernet PHY?
Yes, the LM3S1435-IQC50-A2T integrates a full 10/100 Ethernet PHY with MII/RMII interface and IEEE 1588 timestamping hardware. Unlike other Stellaris variants such as LM3S6965 or LM3S1968, it does not require an external PHY IC - all physical layer signaling (TX+/TX−, RX+/RX−, MDIO/MDC) is routed directly from the LM3S1435-IQC50-A2T to the magnetics and RJ45 connector.
How many ADC channels does the LM3S1435-IQC50-A2T support, and what is their resolution and speed?
The LM3S1435-IQC50-A2T features two independent 10-bit analog-to-digital converters, each with 8 input channels and a maximum sampling rate of 1 Msps. Each ADC achieves ±1 LSB integral nonlinearity and supports hardware-triggered sampling synchronized to PWM or timer events - critical for simultaneous multi-sensor acquisition in motor control and power monitoring applications.
Is the LM3S1435-IQC50-A2T pin-compatible with other Stellaris 48-pin LQFP microcontrollers?
Yes, the LM3S1435-IQC50-A2T shares the same 48-pin LQFP mechanical footprint and core peripheral pin mapping (GPIO, UART, SSI, I²C, CAN, USB, JTAG) with other LM3Sxxx 48-pin variants such as LM3S6965 and LM3S1968. However, Ethernet PHY pins (EPHY0TX+/TX−, RX+/RX−, MDIO/MDC) are unique to LM3S1435-IQC50-A2T and must be accounted for in PCB layout and schematic design.
What software development resources are available for the LM3S1435-IQC50-A2T?
Texas Instruments provides the royalty-free StellarisWare software suite for the LM3S1435-IQC50-A2T, including the Stellaris Peripheral Driver Library (source code and object libraries), Stellaris USB Library, Stellaris Graphics Library, and comprehensive example projects for Ethernet, CAN, USB OTG, and motion control.
