NXP announced new LPC11E37H and LPC11U37H microcontrollers allow developers to address late design changes to their system. The two devices include an "I/O Handler" peripheral that offers designers the flexibility to add incremental peripheral functionality at any point during the design cycle.
Configured to add I2S, I2C and UART, it can even provide DMA or ADC threshold functionality to further optimize performance and power efficiency to the MCU with little impact on CPU performance. Each microcontroller features a low-power 50-MHz ARM Cortex-M0 processor with up to 128 KB of flash, 12 KB of SRAM and 4 KB of EEPROM, with an additional full-speed USB device controller included on the LPC11U37H. The I/O Handler is configured using pre-compiled libraries that can be downloaded from NXP's LPCware software and support website, and are available for no additional charge.
