FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the LPC2104BBD48,151?
The LPC2104BBD48,151 achieves a maximum CPU clock frequency of 60 MHz using its on-chip Phase-Locked Loop (PLL). The PLL has a specified settling time of 100 µs, ensuring rapid clock stabilization after power-up or frequency changes. This speed is enabled by the 128-bit wide flash interface and accelerator architecture, allowing true 32-bit instruction execution at peak rate without wait states.
Does the LPC2104BBD48,151 support in-system programming (ISP)?
Yes, the LPC2104BBD48,151 supports In-System Programming via its UART0 interface using the built-in bootloader. Flash programming requires no external programmer-only a UART connection and appropriate host software. Each 512-byte flash line writes in 1 ms, and sector or full-chip erase completes in 400 ms, enabling efficient field firmware updates and production programming.
What are the power supply requirements for the LPC2104BBD48,151?
The LPC2104BBD48,151 requires two independent power supplies: a 1.8 V ± 8.3 % core supply (VDD(1V8)) for internal logic and a 3.3 V ± 10 % I/O supply (VDD(3V3)) for GPIO and peripheral interfaces. All I/O pins are 5 V tolerant, allowing safe interfacing with legacy 5 V logic without external level shifters-critical for mixed-voltage system integration.
How many UART interfaces does the LPC2104BBD48,151 include, and what advanced features do they offer?
The LPC2104BBD48,151 integrates two UART interfaces (UART0 and UART1), both compliant with the 16C550 specification. Key enhancements include fractional baud rate generators for precise timing, hardware handshake (RTS/CTS), and autobauding capabilities-fully implemented in hardware to offload CPU during serial initialization and error recovery.
Is the LPC2104BBD48,151 pin-compatible with other members of the LPC2100 family?
Yes, the LPC2104BBD48,151 shares identical pin configuration and LQFP48 package (SOT313-2) with LPC2105BBD48 and LPC2106BBD48. All three devices have the same peripheral set, register map, and electrical characteristics-enabling direct hardware replacement and firmware reuse across memory variants without PCB redesign.
