Product details

For a production line that already has this MCU qualified, the only sourcing channel is the independent market — surplus inventory, excess stock, or broker-sourced material. The 108-ball BGA and the specific peripheral mix (Ethernet + CAN + USB OTG) mean a drop-in replacement is unlikely; a redesign with a current-generation MCU is the long-term answer.

108-ball BGA — layout and assembly considerations

The LM3S9C97-IBZ80-A1T comes in a 108-LFBGA package with a 10x10 mm body. The core supply is a narrow 1.235 V to 1.365 V rail. The 60 GPIOs are distributed across the ball map.

Industrial temperature grade — deployment envelope

The internal oscillator and POR/Brown-out detect help maintain reliable startup across the range.

Frequently asked questions

What is the replacement for LM3S9C97-IBZ80-A1T?

There is no official pin-compatible replacement from TI. The Stellaris family has been discontinued. A redesign with a current-generation ARM Cortex-M4 or M7 MCU (e.g., TI's TM4C series or a comparable STM32 with Ethernet and CAN) is the typical path. We can help identify candidates if you share the key requirements.
