The LM3S6611-IQC50-A2T is a 32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 microcontroller from TI's Stellaris 6000 series, built for control applications that need a wired network connection. It runs at 50 MHz, carries 128 KB of Flash program memory and 32 KB of RAM, and integrates an Ethernet MAC alongside I²C, SPI, SSI, UART/USART, IrDA, and Microwire serial interfaces. The 46 GPIO lines and on-chip peripherals — brown-out detect, POR, PWM, watchdog timer — suit it for industrial gateways, remote I/O nodes, and HMI panels where the -40°C to 85°C industrial temperature grade is required.
The 50 MHz clock rate on the ARM Cortex-M3 core delivers 50 MHz. The 32 KB RAM provides working space for packet buffers and protocol state tables.
