Product details

The LM3S6432-IBZ50-A2: The 108-ball LFBGA (10x10 mm body) demands a multilayer PCB with via-in-pad or microvia routing for the fine-pitch balls.

Peripherals and I/O for control applications

With 43 general-purpose I/O lines, three 10-bit ADC channels, and a PWM unit, this MCU can handle local sensor readout, motor PWM drive, and discrete I/O without an external CPLD. The brown-out detect and POR supervisor reduce external reset-IC cost. The WDT is there for safety-critical loops — enable it early in firmware bring-up to catch runaway code during development.

The LM3S6432-IBZ50-A2 is officially obsolete. No last-time-buy window remains from the manufacturer. If your design can tolerate a pin-compatible migration, the Stellaris family includes other Cortex-M3 variants in the same 108-BGA footprint; verify the exact memory and peripheral set against your firmware image.

Frequently asked questions

Is LM3S6432-IBZ50-A2 obsolete?

Yes, the LM3S6432-IBZ50-A2 is officially obsolete. No manufacturer last-time-buy is available; supply is limited to surplus and broker-channel inventory.

What is the replacement for LM3S6432-IBZ50-A2?

No official replacement order code is listed by Texas Instruments. The Stellaris family includes other Cortex-M3 MCUs in the same 108-BGA package — a pin-compatible migration may be possible, but the exact Flash, RAM, and peripheral set must be verified against the firmware and BOM.
