The Texas Instruments LM3S317-EQN25-C2T is a 32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 MCU from the Stellaris series, running at 25 MHz with 16 KB of Flash and 4 KB of RAM. Typical applications include motor-control nodes, sensor bridges, and serial-communication modules where a small-footprint Cortex-M3 core is sufficient.
The 25 MHz Cortex-M3 executes single-cycle multiply and hardware divide. The 6-channel 10-bit ADC is adequate for most sensor interfaces.
16 KB Flash / 4 KB RAM — firmware budget
The 16 KB Flash and 4 KB RAM support a control firmware image and a UART buffer.
Texas Instruments has marked the LM3S317-EQN25-C2T as obsolete. No factory last-time-buy window remains open.
The 48-LQFP package measures 7 mm × 7 mm. It is a surface-mount part with 30 I/O lines.
