Product details

The 80 MHz core runs a PID loop at several kHz alongside CAN message handling and USB device stack.

512 KB Flash and 64 KB RAM — sizing the firmware

The 512 KB Flash can hold a full bootloader, RTOS kernel, and a moderate application with CANopen or USB CDC class drivers. The 64 KB RAM is adequate for a few kilobytes of stack and data buffers; if your design requires large frame buffers or extensive data logging, you will need external SRAM or a part with larger on-chip RAM.

Texas Instruments has marked the LM3S5C36-IQR80-A2T as obsolete. No official successor part number is listed. For new designs, look at TI's current Tiva C Series or other Cortex-M4 parts.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best replacement for LM3S5C36-IQR80-A2T?

Texas Instruments has not published an official direct replacement for this part. For new designs, consider the Tiva C Series (TM4C123 or TM4C129) which offer Cortex-M4 cores with similar peripheral sets. Verify pin compatibility and software migration effort before committing.

Does LM3S5C36-IQR80-A2T have CAN bus and USB?

Yes, this MCU includes a CAN 2.0B controller and a USB interface (device/host/OTG), along with UART, SPI, I2C, SSI, and IrDA.

What is LM3S5C36-IQR80-A2T's listed speed?

The core runs at 80 MHz.
