The LPC2210 is based on a 16/32 bit ARM7TDMI-STM CPU with real-time emulation and embedded trace support. For critical code size applications, the alternative 16-bit Thumb Mode reduces code by more than 30% with minimal performance penalty. With its 144 pin package, low power consumption, various 32-bit timers, 8-channel 10-bit ADC, PWM channels and up to 9 external interrupt pins this microcontroller is particularly suitable for industrial control, medical systems, access control and point-of-sale. LPC2210 provides up to 76 GPIO depending on bus configuration. With a wide range of serial communications interfaces, it is also very well suited for communication gateways, protocol converters and embedded soft modems as well as many other general-purpose applications.
