Product details

No last-time-buy window remains open through the factory channel.

Core specs that define the fit

The 8-channel 10-bit ADC covers basic analog sensing — think potentiometer feedback, thermistor inputs, or current-shunt monitoring on a motor-drive board. The internal oscillator and the brown-out detect/POR/PWM/WDT peripheral set let it run with minimal external support components.

Package — the footprint constraint for any substitute

Housed in a 100-LQFP with a 14x14 mm body. Any pin-compatible replacement must match this mechanical footprint exactly.

Frequently asked questions

Is the LM3S1958-EQC50-A2T obsolete or EOL?

Yes, it is officially Obsolete per the lifecycle record. Texas Instruments has ended production with no last-time-buy window remaining. Sourcing is limited to the independent surplus and broker channel.

What is the replacement for LM3S1958-EQC50-A2T?

A replacement search should target a 32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 or Cortex-M4 MCU in a 100-LQFP 14x14 mm package, with 50 MHz or higher core speed, 256 KB+ Flash, 64 KB+ RAM, 52+ I/O, and a 2.5 V supply rail — or a design change to a 3.3 V part with an LDO. The peripheral set (I²C, SPI, UART, 8x10b ADC) is common enough that several current-production MCU families can cover it, but the 2.25 V–2.75 V supply is the unusual constraint that may force a rail change.
