Philips industry-leading LPC214x series of fully-compliant USB 2.0 Full Speed ARM7 MCU As you know, not all ARM MCUs are implemented in the same way and Philips' implementation of the LPC214x family clearly sets it apart for customers. To be fully compliant with the USB 2.0 Full Speed standard, the LPC214x series, based on the ARM7TDMI-S, incorporates 32 double-buffered endpoints with maximum packet size support and flexible direct memory access (DMA). This allows data from the USB device to transfer at higher speeds than previously capable, resulting in a decrease in downloading time for the consumer. In addition, the USB on-board the LPC214x provides Good Link LED output and Soft Connect programmable resistor functionality for increase manufacturing flexibility. The LPC214x series is also unique in the fact that it has Fast I/O capability with I/O speeds that are up to four times faster than competitive solutions. In existing ARM MCUs, I/O speed is normally limited to about 4 Megahertz. With its Fast I/O feature, the software driven I/O on the LPC214x can operate at 15 Megahertz. Other on-board communication peripherals include two 16C550- compatible UARTs with hardware handshaking, two Fast I2C-bus (400 kbps) interfaces, two SPI interfaces and up to two 10-bit ADCs and a 10-bit DAC. Its multiple serial communications interfaces increase design flexibility, provides larger buffer size and helps deliver higher processing power. Pricing and Availability The LPC214x series is available now. Pricing in quantities of 10,000 for the MCUs are as follows: LPC2148 = USD$7.50, LPC2146 = USD$6.75, LPC2144 = USD$5.65, LPC2142 = USD$4.20, LPC2141 = USD$3.60.
