Product details

What this Cortex-M3 does on a control board

The 28 I/O lines, plus I²C, SPI, UART, and SSI interfaces, let it talk to ADCs, displays, or motor drivers without an external bridge chip. An internal oscillator and a brown-out detect / POR / WDT peripheral set mean it can run standalone in an industrial enclosure with minimal support components.

28 I/O and the 48-VQFN footprint

The 48-VFQFN with exposed pad (7x7 mm body) is the package you see on a lot of compact motor-drive and PLC-I/O cards. Tape & Reel delivery means it feeds straight into a pick-and-place for volume builds.

On-site swap reality

If you are carrying a field kit and need to swap this on a customer's panel, the 48-VQFN is not socket-friendly — you will need hot air or a rework station to get the exposed pad off the board. No ESD bench? Ground yourself to the enclosure before handling.

Frequently asked questions

What is the core speed of LM3S308-IGZ25-C2T?

The core runs at 25 MHz, which is the maximum clock from the internal oscillator or an external crystal. At this speed, the Flash requires zero wait states for single-cycle access, so interrupt latency stays predictable for control loops.

How many I/O pins does LM3S308-IGZ25-C2T have?

It has 28 general-purpose I/O pins. Some are shared with the peripheral functions (I²C, SPI, UART, SSI), so check the pin mux table in the datasheet if you need all 28 as GPIO.

What is the RAM size of LM3S308-IGZ25-C2T?

The SRAM is 4 KB organized as 4K x 8 bits.
