72 MHz ARM7 — what the core speed buys you
The LPC2367FBD100,551: 72 MHz is the practical ceiling for this ARM7 pipeline without cache. The DMA peripheral offloads ADC result transfers and memory-card block reads.
512 KB Flash / 58 KB RAM — firmware and data budget
The 512 KB Flash holds a full TCP/IP stack plus the application image. 58 KB of SRAM is enough for two Ethernet frames and the RTOS task stacks.
NXP has marked this part Not Recommended for New Designs (NRND). That means the manufacturing line is still running, but the window for last-time-buy and final shipments is finite.
