Product details

The LM3S5791-IQC80-C0: The 16-channel 10-bit ADC and quadrature encoder interface (QEI) suit motor-drive feedback and sensor acquisition.

The 80 MHz core delivers roughly 1.25 DMIPS/MHz, giving about 100 DMIPS of headroom for control loops, protocol stacks, and real-time tasks. Combined with the 64 KB SRAM, this part can handle a moderate RTOS, a TCP/IP stack over Ethernet (via external PHY on the EBI/EMI), and dual CAN channels without running out of memory.

This part carries an official obsolete status. For a production BOM that already qualifies this MCU, the only viable channel is the independent distribution market — surplus, new-old-stock, or broker inventory. If you are designing a new board, you will want to evaluate a current-production ARM Cortex-M3 or Cortex-M4 part with similar peripheral mapping.

The LM3S5791-IQC80-C0 is supplied in a 100-pin LQFP with a 14x14 mm body (0.5 mm pitch). It is a surface-mount package, tray shipping. The footprint is a standard JEDEC 100-LQFP; no exotic pad geometry.

Frequently asked questions

What is the replacement for LM3S5791-IQC80-C0?

No direct pin-compatible replacement is listed under the LM3S5791 base number. For new designs, evaluate a current-production ARM Cortex-M3 or Cortex-M4 MCU from TI's Tiva C Series or a comparable vendor with similar peripheral set (USB OTG, dual CAN, LIN, 10-bit ADC).

What is LM3S5791-IQC80-C0's listed speed?

The core is rated at 80 MHz. That is the maximum clock frequency for the ARM Cortex-M3 in this device.
