Product details

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

The 25 MHz Cortex-M3 core delivers adequate throughput for UART polling, sensor readout, and PWM generation at moderate update rates. It will not sustain real-time audio processing or high-speed data logging — the 4 KB RAM and 16 KB Flash are the actual constraints. For a control loop with a few hundred lines of C and a handful of state variables, this part fits without over-spending on a larger Stellaris sibling.

The 36 I/O lines are on the perimeter leads.

Frequently asked questions

Is the LM3S300-EQN25-C2T obsolete?

Yes, TI has designated this part as obsolete. It is not available from the factory; all sourcing is through independent distribution with prior authentication.

What are the pin-compatible alternatives to LM3S300-EQN25-C2T?

No official pin-compatible replacement is listed in TI's documentation for this exact order code. The Stellaris family shares the same 48-LQFP footprint across several density options, but pin compatibility should be verified against the target MCU's datasheet before substitution.

What is the operating temperature range of LM3S300-EQN25-C2T?

The device is rated for -40°C to 105°C, covering industrial and automotive cabin-adjacent environments.

Where can I buy LM3S300-EQN25-C2T and how do I get a price?

This part is sourced to order through independent distribution. Submit an RFQ for current availability, pricing, and date-code verification.

What is the difference between LM3S300-EQN25-C2T and LM3S300-EQN25-C2 (non-tape)?

The C2T suffix indicates Tape & Reel packaging; the C2 suffix typically denotes tray or tube. The silicon and electrical ratings are identical.
