LPC54100 ( 8 )

The LPC54100 Series microcontrollers were designed from the ground up to deliver the industry’s best power efficiency for always-on sensor-processing applications. These highly efficient MCUs support ultra-low-power performance for sensor tasks such as listening, collection, and aggregation of sensor data as well as complex sensor processing tasks such as sensor fusion.

Crucial for always-on applications, LPC54100 Series MCUs require as little as 3 µA for continuous sensor listening. A first for sensor applications, an asymmetric dual-core architecture enables scalable active power/performance: Developers can use the 55 µA/MHz Cortex-M0+ core for sensor data collection, aggregation, and external communications, or the Cortex-M4F core (100 µA/MHz) to execute math-intensive algorithms (i.e., motion sensor fusion) more quickly while saving power.  The LPC54100 Series also includes single-core (Cortex-M4F) options with similar sensor listening and M4F power efficiencies.

This architecture is complemented by a range of analog and digital interfaces designed for power efficiency — including a 12-bit, 4.8 Msps ADC capable of full-spec performance at the full voltage range, as well as low-power serial interfaces. Together these features enable LPC54100 Series MCUs to offer the best overall power efficiency for sensor processing than any other microcontrollers in their class.

For fast development, NXP offers the LPCXpresso54102 board for rapid prototyping and evaluation and an application-in-a-box LPC54102 Sensor Processing/Motion Solution to bring sensor-based motion and other sensor-processing applications to market quickly.
