Product details

80 MHz Cortex-M3 with USB OTG and CAN — what the BGA footprint means for layout

The LM3S5C51-IBZ80-A1: It packs 67 I/O lines, USB OTG, CAN, dual SPI, dual UART, I²C, and a 16-channel 12-bit ADC into a 108-LFBGA (10x10 mm) package.

For BOM lines that still call out this exact code, supply runs through independent distribution and surplus inventory.

Memory and peripheral budget for the firmware architect

The 67 I/O lines in a 108-ball BGA leave about 41 balls for power and ground, which means the layout engineer needs to fan out the inner rows carefully.

Connectivity set — USB OTG and CAN for industrial links

The peripheral list includes USB OTG, CAN, dual SPI, dual UART, I²C, IrDA, LIN, and Microwire. The 16-channel 12-bit ADC covers analog sensing.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy LM3S5C51-IBZ80-A1 available via RFQ confirmation?

What are the key differences between LM3S5C51-IBZ80-A1 and newer Stellaris MCUs?

Newer Stellaris (now TM4C series) parts typically offer higher core speeds (120 MHz vs 80 MHz), larger Flash and SRAM options, and more advanced peripherals like USB HS and additional CAN channels, but are not pin-compatible with the 108-LFBGA footprint. The LM3S5C51-IBZ80-A1 is a mature design with a proven peripheral set for legacy BOMs.
