Product details

20 MHz Cortex-M3 with 8 KB Flash — what the memory budget means

The 18 general-purpose I/O lines, along with built-in peripherals like PWM, watchdog timer, and brown-out detect, let it handle simple motor control, sensor interface, or human-machine interface tasks without external glue logic.

Supply range is 3.0 V to 3.6 V, compatible with standard 3.3 V logic and linear regulators.

The serial interface set includes SPI, SSI, Microwire, and a UART/USART — enough for SPI flash, serial ADCs, or RS-485 transceivers.

For BOM planning, there is no last-time-buy risk to budget around.

Frequently asked questions

What is the replacement or equivalent for LM3S101-IRN20-C2?

The Stellaris family includes higher-density siblings (more Flash/RAM) in the same 28-SOIC footprint, but those require firmware migration. For a drop-in alternate, verify pin compatibility against the specific package variant.
