Product details
Overview
LM3S2139-IBZ25-A2T from Texas Instruments is a 32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 microcontroller with 256 KB flash, 32 KB SRAM, integrated CAN 2.0A/B controller, 8-channel 12-bit ADC, and dual UARTs. It operates at 50 MHz and supports industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) in a 100-pin LQFP package. It targets motor control and industrial automation systems requiring real-time communication and analog sensing.
For engineers reviewing the LM3S2139-IBZ25-A2T datasheet, LM3S2139-IBZ25-A2T pinout, LM3S2139-IBZ25-A2T application, or LM3S2139-IBZ25-A2T equivalent, key selection criteria include CAN interface support, on-chip flash/SRAM size, ADC resolution and channel count, operating temperature grade, and LQFP-100 mechanical compatibility.
Technical Context
The LM3S2139-IBZ25-A2T integrates an ARM Cortex-M3 core with nested vectored interrupt controller (NVIC), SysTick timer, and memory protection unit (MPU). It implements a dedicated CAN 2.0A/B controller with 32 message objects, programmable bit timing, and hardware acceptance filtering.
Its analog subsystem includes an 8-channel 12-bit ADC with hardware averaging and internal temperature sensor, while serial connectivity comprises two UARTs (one with IrDA SIR), one SSI, and one I²C interface - all independently clocked and interrupt-capable.

Applications
| Industrial Motor Control | Factory Automation Node |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Closed-loop control of 3-phase BLDC motors using space-vector PWM and current feedback. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Real-time execution host with integrated CAN for command distribution and ADC for analog current sensing. Use Value: Eliminates external CAN controller and reduces BOM count; 50 MHz Cortex-M3 delivers <1 µs ISR latency for commutation timing. | Use Scenario: Distributed I/O module collecting sensor data (temperature, pressure) and actuating valves via CAN bus. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fieldbus endpoint processor handling protocol stack, analog acquisition, and local decision logic. Use Value: On-chip 256 KB flash stores multiple firmware images; industrial temp grade ensures operation near machinery heat sources. |
| Building HVAC Controller | Energy Monitoring Gateway |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: System coordinator with dual UARTs for Modbus RTU and BACnet MS/TP, plus CAN for local device network. Use Value: Dual UARTs avoid external level shifters; integrated ADC reads thermistor and humidity sensor outputs directly. | Use Scenario: Submetering node aggregating power quality data from CT sensors and communicating via CAN to central SCADA. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Data acquisition engine with precise timestamping via GPTM and CAN message framing. Use Value: Hardware CAN message objects offload CPU during burst reporting; 32 KB SRAM buffers 10+ seconds of sampled waveform data. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM3S2678-IBZ25-A2T | Same core and package, but adds Ethernet MAC and PHY interface; flash increased to 512 KB. | Suitable where wired IP-based control or remote diagnostics are required - adds complexity and cost if Ethernet unused. | Select LM3S2678 only when Ethernet connectivity is mandatory; otherwise LM3S2139-IBZ25-A2T offers better cost/performance balance for CAN-only nodes. |
| TM4C123GH6PM | Newer generation (ARM Cortex-M4F), 80 MHz, FPU, 256 KB flash, same 100-pin LQFP, but no CAN controller - requires external CAN transceiver + interface logic. | Preferred for floating-point math-intensive tasks (e.g., predictive maintenance algorithms), but lacks native CAN support. | Choose TM4C123GH6PM for upgrade paths needing FPU or higher clock speed; retain LM3S2139-IBZ25-A2T when CAN integration and legacy software compatibility are critical. |
Compared with LM3S2678-IBZ25-A2T and TM4C123GH6PM, the LM3S2139-IBZ25-A2T delivers optimal integration for cost-sensitive, CAN-centric industrial nodes - preserving software investment while avoiding unnecessary peripherals or architectural migration overhead.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the LM3S2139-IBZ25-A2T?
The LM3S2139-IBZ25-A2T operates at a maximum system clock frequency of 50 MHz, derived from its internal PLL or external crystal oscillator. This frequency is fully supported across the industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) and enables sub-microsecond interrupt response times essential for motor control timing loops. The LM3S2139-IBZ25-A2T maintains this rating without derating under specified voltage and thermal conditions.
Does the LM3S2139-IBZ25-A2T include a built-in CAN transceiver?
No, the LM3S2139-IBZ25-A2T integrates a CAN 2.0A/B controller but requires an external CAN physical-layer transceiver (e.g., TI SN65HVD230 or ISO1050) for bus connection. Its CAN0RX and CAN0TX pins provide CMOS-level signals compliant with ISO 11898-1, not differential bus voltages. The LM3S2139-IBZ25-A2T handles protocol, filtering, and message buffering entirely in hardware.
What are the memory resources available on the LM3S2139-IBZ25-A2T?
The LM3S2139-IBZ25-A2T provides 256 KB of on-chip flash memory for program and constant storage, and 32 KB of on-chip SRAM for runtime variables, stack, and heap. Flash supports erase/write cycles with sector protection, and SRAM retains full functionality across the industrial temperature range. These memory sizes are fixed for the LM3S2139-IBZ25-A2T and do not vary by temperature grade or packaging.
Is the LM3S2139-IBZ25-A2T still in active production by Texas Instruments?
Texas Instruments discontinued the LM3S2139-IBZ25-A2T in 2017 as part of the transition to the TM4C series. However, Aetrix Electronics maintains verified legacy inventory with full traceability and extended lifecycle support for existing designs. The LM3S2139-IBZ25-A2T remains available for replacement and maintenance of deployed industrial systems.
Can the LM3S2139-IBZ25-A2T support USB device functionality?
The LM3S2139-IBZ25-A2T includes USB OTG signal detection pins (USB0VBUS, USB0ID) and USB controller logic but lacks an integrated USB PHY. To implement USB device mode, an external USB transceiver (e.g., TUSB3210) must be added. Full USB functionality is not self-contained in the LM3S2139-IBZ25-A2T - it requires companion silicon and careful layout for signal integrity.
