The Texas Instruments LM3S6618-EQC50-A2 is a 32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 microcontroller from the Stellaris 6000 series, clocked at 50 MHz with 128 KB of Flash program memory and 32 KB of SRAM.
Obsolete — sourcing reality for the LM3S6618-EQC50-A2
This part is officially obsolete per the manufacturer's lifecycle status. No last-time-buy window remains open; production has ended. No manufacturer-declared direct replacement or pin-compatible successor exists for the LM3S6618-EQC50-A2 within the Stellaris family. Any cross-reference or equivalent must be evaluated on a form-fit-function basis by the design team, considering the 50 MHz core, 128 KB Flash / 32 KB SRAM, Ethernet MAC, and 100-LQFP footprint. A migration to a current-production Cortex-M3 or Cortex-M4 part from another series or vendor will likely require a PCB respin and software port.
Core and I/O share a single 2.25 V to 2.75 V supply rail.
