The 60 MHz clock delivers roughly 60 MIPS from its 3-stage pipeline — enough to handle a Modbus RTU master stack, a simple PID loop, and a 10-bit ADC scan without saturating the CPU.

Product details
Frequently asked questions
What is the replacement for LPC2157FBD100,551?
No official successor order code is listed. The LPC2148 family shares the same ARM7 core and 100-LQFP package but has different memory sizes and adds USB; verify pin compatibility against your board before substituting.
What is the pinout of LPC2157FBD100,551?
The pinout follows the standard 100-LQFP ARM7 mapping for the LPC2100 series. The 38 I/O lines, ADC inputs, and serial interface pins are assigned per the NXP datasheet; the internal oscillator uses the XTAL1/XTAL2 pins if an external crystal is desired.
Is LPC2157FBD100,551 equivalent to LPC2148?
Both are ARM7 MCUs in 100-LQFP packages, but the LPC2148 includes USB 2.0 Full Speed and typically has different memory sizes. They are not drop-in equivalents without verifying the pinout and peripheral register map.
