Single-chip 16-bit/32-bit microcontroller; 512 kB ash with ISP/IAP, Ethernet, USB 2.0, CAN, and 10-bit ADC/DAC
Rev. 04 19 November 2008 Product data sheet

1. General description
The LPC2377/78 microcontroller is based on a 16-bit/32-bit ARM7TDMI-S CPU with real-time emulation that combines the microcontroller with 512 kB of embedded high-speed ash memory. A 128-bit wide memory interface and a unique accelerator architecture enable 32-bit code execution at the maximum clock rate. For critical performance in interrupt service routines and DSP algorithms, this increases performance up to 30 % over Thumb mode. For critical code size applications, the alternative 16-bit Thumb mode reduces code by more than 30 % with minimal performance penalty. The LPC2377/78 is ideal for multi-purpose serial communication applications. It incorporates a 10/100 Ethernet Media Access Controller (MAC), USB full speed device with 4 kB of endpoint RAM (LPC2378 only), four UARTs, two CAN channels (LPC2378 only), an SPI interface, two Synchronous Serial Ports (SSP), three I2C-bus interfaces, an I2S-bus interface, and an External Memory Controller (EMC). This blend of serial communications interfaces combined with an on-chip 4 MHz internal oscillator, SRAM of 32 kB, 16 kB SRAM for Ethernet, 8 kB SRAM for USB and general purpose use, together with 2 kB battery powered SRAM make this device very well suited for communication gateways and protocol converters. Various 32-bit timers, an improved 10-bit ADC, 10-bit DAC, PWM unit, a CAN control unit, and up to 104 fast GPIO lines with up to 50 edge and up to four level sensitive external interrupt pins make these microcontrollers particularly suitable for industrial control and medical systems.

2. Features
I ARM7TDMI-S processor, running at up to 72 MHz. I Up to 512 kB on-chip ash program memory with In-System Programming (ISP) and In-Application Programming (IAP) capabilities. Flash program memory is on the ARM local bus for high performance CPU access. I 32 kB of SRAM on the ARM local bus for high performance CPU access. I 16 kB SRAM for Ethernet interface. Can also be used as general purpose SRAM. I 8 kB SRAM for general purpose DMA use also accessible by the USB. I Dual Advanced High-performance Bus (AHB) system that provides for simultaneous Ethernet DMA, USB DMA, and program execution from on-chip ash with no contention between those functions. A bus bridge allows the Ethernet DMA to access the other AHB subsystem. I EMC provides support for static devices such as ash and SRAM as well as off-chip memory mapped peripherals. I Advanced Vectored Interrupt Controller (VIC), supporting up to 32 vectored interrupts.

N USB 2.0 full-speed device with on-chip PHY and associated DMA controller (LPC2378 only). N Four UARTs with fractional baud rate generation, one with modem control I/O, one with IrDA support, all with FIFO. N CAN controller with two channels (LPC2378 only). N SPI controller. N Two SSP controllers with FIFO and multi-protocol capabilities. One is an alternate for the SPI port, sharing its interrupt and pins. These can be used with the GPDMA controller. N Three I2C-bus interfaces (one with open-drain and two with standard port pins). N I2S (Inter-IC Sound) interface for digital audio input or output. It can be used with the GPDMA. I Other peripherals: N SD/MMC memory card interface. N 104 General purpose I/O pins with congurable pull-up/down resistors. N 10-bit ADC with input multiplexing among 8 pins. N 10-bit DAC. N Four general purpose timers/counters with 8 capture inputs and 10 compare outputs. Each timer block has an external count input. N One PWM/timer block with support for three-phase motor control. The PWM has two external count inputs. N Real-Time Clock (RTC) with separate power pin, clock source can be the RTC oscillator or the APB clock. N 2 kB SRAM powered from the RTC power pin, allowing data to be stored when the rest of the chip is powered off. N WatchDog Timer (WDT). The WDT can be clocked from the internal RC oscillator, the RTC oscillator, or the APB clock. I Standard ARM test/debug interface for compatibility with existing tools. I Emulation trace module supports real-time trace. I Single 3.3 V power supply (3.0 V to 3.6 V). I Three reduced power modes: idle, sleep, and power-down. I Four external interrupt inputs congurable as edge/level sensitive. All pins on PORT0 and PORT2 can be used as edge sensitive interrupt sources. I Processor wake-up from Power-down mode via any interrupt able to operate during Power-down mode (includes external interrupts, RTC interrupt, USB activity, Ethernet wake-up interrupt). I Two independent power domains allow ne tuning of power consumption based on needed features. I Each peripheral has its own clock divider for further power saving. I Brownout detect with separate thresholds for interrupt and forced reset. I On-chip power-on reset.

7. Functional description
7.1 Architectural overview
The LPC2377/78 microcontroller consists of an ARM7TDMI-S CPU with emulation support, the ARM7 local bus for closely coupled, high-speed access to the majority of on-chip memory, the AMBA AHB interfacing to high-speed on-chip peripherals and external memory, and the AMBA APB for connection to other on-chip peripheral functions. The microcontroller permanently congures the ARM7TDMI-S processor for little-endian byte order. The LPC2377/78 implements two AHB in order to allow the Ethernet block to operate without interference caused by other system activity. The primary AHB, referred to as AHB1, includes the VIC, GPDMA controller, and EMC. The second AHB, referred to as AHB2, includes only the Ethernet block and an associated 16 kB SRAM. In addition, a bus bridge is provided that allows the secondary AHB to be a bus master on AHB1, allowing expansion of Ethernet buffer space into off-chip memory or unused space in memory residing on AHB1. In summary, bus masters with access to AHB1 are the ARM7 itself, the GPDMA function, and the Ethernet block (via the bus bridge from AHB2). Bus masters with access to AHB2 are the ARM7 and the Ethernet block. AHB peripherals are allocated a 2 MB range of addresses at the very top of the 4 GB ARM memory space. Each AHB peripheral is allocated a 16 kB address space within the AHB address space. Lower speed peripheral functions are connected to the APB bus. The AHB to APB bridge interfaces the APB to the AHB. APB peripherals are also allocated a 2 MB range of addresses, beginning at the 3.5 GB address point. Each APB peripheral is allocated a 16 kB address space within the APB address space. The ARM7TDMI-S processor is a general purpose 32-bit microprocessor, which offers high performance and very low power consumption. The ARM architecture is based on Reduced Instruction Set Computer (RISC) principles, and the instruction set and related decode mechanism are much simpler than those of microprogrammed complex instruction set computers. This simplicity results in a high instruction throughput and impressive real-time interrupt response from a small and cost-effective processor core. Pipeline techniques are employed so that all parts of the processing and memory systems can operate continuously. Typically, while one instruction is being executed, its successor is being decoded, and a third instruction is being fetched from memory. The ARM7TDMI-S processor also employs a unique architectural strategy known as Thumb, which makes it ideally suited to high-volume applications with memory restrictions, or applications where code density is an issue.

LPC2377/78
Single-chip 16-bit/32-bit microcontroller

The key idea behind Thumb is that of a super-reduced instruction set. Essentially, the ARM7TDMI-S processor has two instruction sets:

the standard 32-bit ARM set a 16-bit Thumb set


The Thumb sets 16-bit instruction length allows it to approach twice the density of standard ARM code while retaining most of the ARMs performance advantage over a traditional 16-bit processor using 16-bit registers. This is possible because Thumb code operates on the same 32-bit register set as ARM code. Thumb code is able to provide up to 65 % of the code size of ARM, and 160 % of the performance of an equivalent ARM processor connected to a 16-bit memory system.

7.2 On-chip ash programming memory


The LPC2377/78 incorporates 512 kB ash memory system. This memory may be used for both code and data storage. Programming of the ash memory may be accomplished in several ways. It may be programmed In System via the serial port (UART0). The application program may also erase and/or program the ash while the application is running, allowing a great degree of exibility for data storage eld and rmware upgrades. The ash memory is 128 bits wide and includes pre-fetching and buffering techniques to allow it to operate at SRAM speeds of 72 MHz. The LPC2377/78 provides a minimum of 100000 write/erase cycles and 20 years of data retention.

7.3 On-chip SRAM


The LPC2377/78 includes a SRAM memory of 32 kB reserved for the ARM processor exclusive use. This RAM may be used for code and/or data storage and may be accessed as 8 bits, 16 bits, and 32 bits. A 16 kB SRAM block serving as a buffer for the Ethernet controller and an 8 kB SRAM used by the GPDMA controller or the USB device can be used for data and code storage. The 2 kB RTC SRAM can be used for data storage only. The RTC SRAM is battery powered and retains the content in the absence of the main power supply.

7.4 Memory map


The LPC2377/78 memory map incorporates several distinct regions as shown in Figure 3. In addition, the CPU interrupt vectors may be remapped to allow them to reside in either ash memory (default), boot ROM, or SRAM (see Section 7.26.6).

7.5 Interrupt controller


The ARM processor core has two interrupt inputs called Interrupt Request (IRQ) and Fast Interrupt Request (FIQ). The VIC takes 32 interrupt request inputs which can be programmed as FIQ or vectored IRQ types. The programmable assignment scheme means that priorities of interrupts from the various peripherals can be dynamically assigned and adjusted.

NXP Semiconductors

LPC2377/78
Single-chip 16-bit/32-bit microcontroller

FIQs have the highest priority. If more than one request is assigned to FIQ, the VIC ORs the requests to produce the FIQ signal to the ARM processor. The fastest possible FIQ latency is achieved when only one request is classied as FIQ, because then the FIQ service routine can simply start dealing with that device. But if more than one request is assigned to the FIQ class, the FIQ service routine can read a word from the VIC that identies which FIQ source(s) is (are) requesting an interrupt. Vectored IRQs, which include all interrupt requests that are not classied as FIQs, have a programmable interrupt priority. When more than one interrupt is assigned the same priority and occur simultaneously, the one connected to the lowest numbered VIC channel will be serviced rst. The VIC ORs the requests from all of the vectored IRQs to produce the IRQ signal to the ARM processor. The IRQ service routine can start by reading a register from the VIC and jumping to the address supplied by that register.

7.5.1 Interrupt sources


Each peripheral device has one interrupt line connected to the VIC but may have several interrupt ags. Individual interrupt ags may also represent more than one interrupt source. Any pin on PORT0 and PORT2 (total of 46 pins) regardless of the selected function, can be programmed to generate an interrupt on a rising edge, a falling edge, or both. Such interrupt request coming from PORT0 and/or PORT2 will be combined with the EINT3 interrupt requests.

7.6 Pin connect block


The pin connect block allows selected pins of the microcontroller to have more than one function. Conguration registers control the multiplexers to allow connection between the pin and the on chip peripherals. Peripherals should be connected to the appropriate pins prior to being activated and prior to any related interrupt(s) being enabled. Activity of any enabled peripheral function that is not mapped to a related pin should be considered undened.

7.7 External memory controller


The LPC2377/78 EMC is an ARM PrimeCell MultiPort Memory Controller peripheral offering support for asynchronous static memory devices such as RAM, ROM, and ash. In addition, it can be used as an interface with off-chip memory-mapped devices and peripherals. The EMC is an Advanced Microcontroller Bus Architecture (AMBA) compliant peripheral.

Static memory features include:


Asynchronous page mode read Programmable Wait States (WST) Bus turnaround delay Output enable and write enable delays Extended wait

7.8 General purpose DMA controller


The GPDMA is an AMBA AHB compliant peripheral allowing selected LPC2377/78 peripherals to have DMA support. The GPDMA enables peripheral-to-memory, memory-to-peripheral, peripheral-to-peripheral, and memory-to-memory transactions. Each DMA stream provides unidirectional serial DMA transfers for a single source and destination. For example, a bidirectional port requires one stream for transmit and one for receive. The source and destination areas can each be either a memory region or a peripheral, and can be accessed through the AHB master.

7.8.1 Features

Two DMA channels. Each channel can support a unidirectional transfer. The GPDMA can transfer data between the 8 kB SRAM and peripherals such as the
SD/MMC, two SSP, and I2S-bus interfaces.

Single DMA and burst DMA request signals. Each peripheral connected to the
GPDMA can assert either a burst DMA request or a single DMA request. The DMA burst size is set by programming the GPDMA.

Memory-to-memory, memory-to-peripheral, peripheral-to-memory, and


peripheral-to-peripheral transfers.

Scatter or gather DMA is supported through the use of linked lists. This means that
the source and destination areas do not have to occupy contiguous areas of memory.

Hardware DMA channel priority. Each DMA channel has a specic hardware priority.
DMA channel 0 has the highest priority and channel 1 has the lowest priority. If requests from two channels become active at the same time, the channel with the highest priority is serviced rst.

AHB slave DMA programming interface. The GPDMA is programmed by writing to the
DMA control registers over the AHB slave interface.

One AHB master for transferring data. This interface transfers data when a DMA
request goes active.

32-bit AHB master bus width. Incrementing or non-incrementing addressing for source and destination. Programmable DMA burst size. The DMA burst size can be programmed to more
efciently transfer data. Usually the burst size is set to half the size of the FIFO in the peripheral.

Internal four-word FIFO per channel. Supports 8-bit, 16-bit, and 32-bit wide transactions.

LPC2377/78
Single-chip 16-bit/32-bit microcontroller

An interrupt to the processor can be generated on a DMA completion or when a DMA


error has occurred.

Interrupt masking. The DMA error and DMA terminal count interrupt requests can be
masked.

Raw interrupt status. The DMA error and DMA count raw interrupt status can be read
prior to masking.

7.9 Fast general purpose parallel I/O


Device pins that are not connected to a specic peripheral function are controlled by the GPIO registers. Pins may be dynamically congured as inputs or outputs. Separate registers allow setting or clearing any number of outputs simultaneously. The value of the output register may be read back as well as the current state of the port pins. LPC2377/78 use accelerated GPIO functions:

GPIO registers are relocated to the ARM local bus so that the fastest possible I/O
timing can be achieved.

Mask registers allow treating sets of port bits as a group, leaving other bits
unchanged.

All GPIO registers are byte and half-word addressable. Entire port value can be written in one instruction.
Additionally, any pin on PORT0 and PORT2 (total of 46 pins) providing a digital function can be programmed to generate an interrupt on a rising edge, a falling edge, or both. The edge detection is asynchronous, so it may operate when clocks are not present such as during Power-down mode. Each enabled interrupt can be used to wake up the chip from Power-down mode.

7.9.1 Features

Bit level set and clear registers allow a single instruction to set or clear any number of
bits in one port.

Direction control of individual bits. All I/O default to inputs after reset. Backward compatibility with other earlier devices is maintained with legacy PORT0
and PORT1 registers appearing at the original addresses on the APB bus.

7.10 Ethernet
The Ethernet block contains a full featured 10 Mbit/s or 100 Mbit/s Ethernet MAC designed to provide optimized performance through the use of DMA hardware acceleration. Features include a generous suite of control registers, half or full duplex operation, ow control, control frames, hardware acceleration for transmit retry, receive packet ltering and wake-up on LAN activity. Automatic frame transmission and reception with scatter-gather DMA off-loads many operations from the CPU. The Ethernet block and the CPU share a dedicated AHB subsystem that is used to access the Ethernet SRAM for Ethernet data, control, and status information. All other AHB trafc in the LPC2377/78 takes place on a different AHB subsystem, effectively separating Ethernet activity from the rest of the system. The Ethernet DMA can also access off-chip

7.11 USB interface (LPC2378 only)


The Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a 4-wire bus that supports communication between a host and a number (127 maximum) of peripherals. The host controller allocates the USB bandwidth to attached devices through a token based protocol. The bus supports hot plugging, unplugging and dynamic conguration of the devices. All transactions are initiated by the host controller. The two sets of pins needed by a USB device are named VBUS, USB_D+1, USB_D1, USB_UP_LED1, USB_CONNECT1, and USB_D+2, USB_D2, USB_UP_LED2, and USB_CONNECT2 respectively. At any given time only one of these two sets can be active and used by the application.

7.11.1 USB device controller


The device controller enables 12 Mbit/s data exchange with a USB host controller. It consists of register interface, serial interface engine, endpoint buffer memory, and the DMA controller. The serial interface engine decodes the USB data stream and writes data to the appropriate end point buffer memory. The status of a completed USB transfer or error condition is indicated via status registers. An interrupt is also generated if enabled. The DMA controller when enabled transfers data between the endpoint buffer and the USB RAM. 7.11.1.1 Features

The Controller Area Network (CAN) is a serial communications protocol which efciently supports distributed real-time control with a very high level of security. Its domain of application ranges from high-speed networks to low cost multiplex wiring. The CAN block is intended to support multiple CAN buses simultaneously, allowing the device to be used as a gateway, switch, or router among a number of CAN buses in industrial or automotive applications. Each CAN controller has a register structure similar to the NXP SJA1000 and the PeliCAN Library block, but the 8-bit registers of those devices have been combined in 32-bit words to allow simultaneous access in the ARM environment.

The LPC2377/78 contains one SPI controller. SPI is a full duplex serial interface designed to handle multiple masters and slaves connected to a given bus. Only a single master and a single slave can communicate on the interface during a given data transfer. During a data transfer the master always sends 8 bits to 16 bits of data to the slave, and the slave always sends 8 bits to 16 bits of data to the master.

DMA supported through the GPDMA controller. 7.19 I2C-bus serial I/O controllers
The LPC2377/78 contains three I2C-bus controllers. The I2C-bus is bidirectional, for inter-IC control using only two wires: a serial clock line (SCL), and a serial data line (SDA). Each device is recognized by a unique address and can operate as either a receiver-only device (e.g., an LCD driver) or a transmitter with the capability to both receive and send information (such as memory). Transmitters and/or receivers can operate in either master or slave mode, depending on whether the chip has to initiate a data transfer or is only addressed. The I2C-bus is a multi-master bus and can be controlled by more than one bus master connected to it. The I2C-bus implemented in LPC2377/78 supports bit rates up to 400 kbit/s (Fast I2C-bus).

Arbitration between simultaneously transmitting masters without corruption of serial


data on the bus.

Serial clock synchronization allows devices with different bit rates to communicate via
one serial bus.

Serial clock synchronization can be used as a handshake mechanism to suspend and


resume serial transfer.

The I2C-bus can be used for test and diagnostic purposes. 7.20 I2S-bus serial I/O controllers
The I2S-bus provides a standard communication interface for digital audio applications. The I2S-bus specication denes a 3-wire serial bus using one data line, one clock line, and one word select signal. The basic I2S connection has one master, which is always the master, and one slave. The I2S interface on the LPC2377/78 provides a separate transmit and receive channel, each of which can operate as either a master or a slave.

7.20.1 Features

The interface has separate input/output channels each of which can operate in master
or slave mode.

Capable of handling 8-bit, 16-bit, and 32-bit word sizes. Mono and stereo audio data supported. The sampling frequency can range from 16 kHz to 48 kHz ((16, 22.05, 32, 44.1,
48) kHz).

Congurable word select period in master mode (separately for I2S input and output). Two 8 word FIFO data buffers are provided, one for transmit and one for receive. Generates interrupt requests when buffer levels cross a programmable boundary. Two DMA requests, controlled by programmable buffer levels. These are connected to the GPDMA block.

Controls include reset, stop and mute options separately for I2S input and I2S output. 7.21 General purpose 32-bit timers/external event counters
The LPC2377/78 includes four 32-bit Timer/Counters. The Timer/Counter is designed to count cycles of the system derived clock or an externally-supplied clock. It can optionally generate interrupts or perform other actions at specied timer values, based on four match registers. The Timer/Counter also includes four capture inputs to trap the timer value when an input signal transitions, optionally generating an interrupt.

7.21.1 Features

A 32-bit Timer/Counter with a programmable 32-bit prescaler. Counter or Timer operation. Up to four 32-bit capture channels per timer, that can take a snapshot of the timer
value when an input signal transitions. A capture event may also optionally generate an interrupt.

Continuous operation with optional interrupt generation on match. Stop timer on match with optional interrupt generation. Reset timer on match with optional interrupt generation.

Up to four external outputs corresponding to match registers, with the following


capabilities: Set LOW on match. Set HIGH on match. Toggle on match. Do nothing on match.

7.22 Pulse width modulator


The PWM is based on the standard Timer block and inherits all of its features, although only the PWM function is pinned out on the LPC2377/78. The Timer is designed to count cycles of the system derived clock and optionally switch pins, generate interrupts or perform other actions when specied timer values occur, based on seven match registers. The PWM function is in addition to these features, and is based on match register events. The ability to separately control rising and falling edge locations allows the PWM to be used for more applications. For instance, multi-phase motor control typically requires three non-overlapping PWM outputs with individual control of all three pulse widths and positions. Two match registers can be used to provide a single edge controlled PWM output. One match register (PWMMR0) controls the PWM cycle rate, by resetting the count upon match. The other match register controls the PWM edge position. Additional single edge controlled PWM outputs require only one match register each, since the repetition rate is the same for all PWM outputs. Multiple single edge controlled PWM outputs will all have a rising edge at the beginning of each PWM cycle, when an PWMMR0 match occurs. Three match registers can be used to provide a PWM output with both edges controlled. Again, the PWMMR0 match register controls the PWM cycle rate. The other match registers control the two PWM edge positions. Additional double edge controlled PWM outputs require only two match registers each, since the repetition rate is the same for all PWM outputs. With double edge controlled PWM outputs, specic match registers control the rising and falling edge of the output. This allows both positive going PWM pulses (when the rising edge occurs prior to the falling edge), and negative going PWM pulses (when the falling edge occurs prior to the rising edge).

7.22.1 Features

LPC2377/78 has one PWM block with Counter or Timer operation (may use the
peripheral clock or one of the capture inputs as the clock source).

Seven match registers allow up to 6 single edge controlled or 3 double edge


controlled PWM outputs, or a mix of both types. The match registers also allow: Continuous operation with optional interrupt generation on match. Stop timer on match with optional interrupt generation. Reset timer on match with optional interrupt generation.

LPC2377/78
Single-chip 16-bit/32-bit microcontroller

Supports single edge controlled and/or double edge controlled PWM outputs. Single
edge controlled PWM outputs all go high at the beginning of each cycle unless the output is a constant low. Double edge controlled PWM outputs can have either edge occur at any position within a cycle. This allows for both positive going and negative going pulses.

Pulse period and width can be any number of timer counts. This allows complete
exibility in the trade-off between resolution and repetition rate. All PWM outputs will occur at the same repetition rate.

Double edge controlled PWM outputs can be programmed to be either positive going
or negative going pulses.

Match register updates are synchronized with pulse outputs to prevent generation of
erroneous pulses. Software must release new match values before they can become effective.

May be used as a standard timer if the PWM mode is not enabled. A 32-bit Timer/Counter with a programmable 32-bit Prescaler. 7.23 Watchdog timer
The purpose of the watchdog is to reset the microcontroller within a reasonable amount of time if it enters an erroneous state. When enabled, the watchdog will generate a system reset if the user program fails to feed (or reload) the watchdog within a predetermined amount of time.

7.23.1 Features

Internally resets chip if not periodically reloaded. Debug mode. Enabled by software but requires a hardware reset or a watchdog reset/interrupt to be
disabled.

Incorrect/Incomplete feed sequence causes reset/interrupt if enabled. Flag to indicate watchdog reset. Programmable 32-bit timer with internal prescaler. Selectable time period from (Tcy(WDCLK) 256 4) to (Tcy(WDCLK) 232 4) in multiples of Tcy(WDCLK) 4. Internal RC oscillator (IRC), or the APB peripheral clock. This gives a wide range of potential timing choices of Watchdog operation under different power reduction conditions. It also provides the ability to run the WDT from an entirely internal source that is not dependent on an external crystal and its associated components and wiring, for increased reliability.

The Watchdog Clock (WDCLK) source can be selected from the RTC clock, the

7.24 RTC and battery RAM


The RTC is a set of counters for measuring time when system power is on, and optionally when it is off. It uses little power in Power-down mode. On the LPC2377/78, the RTC can be clocked by a separate 32.768 kHz oscillator or by a programmable prescale divider

based on the APB clock. Also, the RTC is powered by its own power supply pin, VBAT, which can be connected to a battery or to the same 3.3 V supply used by the rest of the device. The VBAT pin supplies power only to the RTC and the battery RAM. These two functions require a minimum of power to operate, which can be supplied by an external battery. When the CPU and the rest of chip functions are stopped and power removed, the RTC can supply an alarm output that can be used by external hardware to restore chip power and resume operation.

7.24.1 Features

Measures the passage of time to maintain a calendar and clock. Ultra low power design to support battery powered systems. Provides Seconds, Minutes, Hours, Day of Month, Month, Year, Day of Week, and Day
of Year.

Dedicated 32 kHz oscillator or programmable prescaler from APB clock. Dedicated power supply pin can be connected to a battery or to the main 3.3 V. An alarm output pin is included to assist in waking up from Power-down mode, or
when the chip has had power removed to all functions except the RTC and battery RAM.

Periodic interrupts can be generated from increments of any eld of the time registers,
and selected fractional second values.

2 kB data SRAM powered by VBAT. RTC and battery RAM power supply is isolated from the rest of the chip. 7.25 Clocking and power control
7.25.1 Crystal oscillators
The LPC2377/78 includes three independent oscillators. These are the Main Oscillator, the Internal RC oscillator, and the RTC oscillator. Each oscillator can be used for more than one purpose as required in a particular application. Any of the three clock sources can be chosen by software to drive the PLL and ultimately the CPU. Following reset, the LPC2377/78 will operate from the Internal RC oscillator until switched by software. This allows systems to operate without any external crystal and the bootloader code to operate at a known frequency. 7.25.1.1 Internal RC oscillator The IRC may be used as the clock source for the WDT, and/or as the clock that drives the PLL and subsequently the CPU. The nominal IRC frequency is 4 MHz. The IRC is trimmed to 1 % accuracy. Upon power-up or any chip reset, the LPC2377/78 uses the IRC as the clock source. Software may later switch to one of the other available clock sources.

LPC2377/78
Single-chip 16-bit/32-bit microcontroller

7.25.1.2

Main oscillator The main oscillator can be used as the clock source for the CPU, with or without using the PLL. The main oscillator operates at frequencies of 1 MHz to 25 MHz. This frequency can be boosted to a higher frequency, up to the maximum CPU operating frequency, by the PLL. The clock selected as the PLL input is PLLCLKIN. The ARM processor clock frequency is referred to as CCLK elsewhere in this document. The frequencies of PLLCLKIN and CCLK are the same value unless the PLL is active and connected. The clock frequency for each peripheral can be selected individually and is referred to as PCLK. Refer to Section 7.25.2 for additional information.

7.25.1.3

RTC oscillator The RTC oscillator can be used as the clock source for the RTC and/or the WDT. Also, the RTC oscillator can be used to drive the PLL and the CPU.

7.25.2 PLL
The PLL accepts an input clock frequency in the range of 32 kHz to 25 MHz. The input frequency is multiplied up to a high frequency, then divided down to provide the actual clock used by the CPU and the USB block. The PLL input, in the range of 32 kHz to 25 MHz, may initially be divided down by a value N, which may be in the range of 1 to 256. This input division provides a wide range of output frequencies from the same input frequency. Following the PLL input divider is the PLL multiplier. This can multiply the input divider output through the use of a Current Controlled Oscillator (CCO) by a value M, in the range of 1 through 32768. The resulting frequency must be in the range of 275 MHz to 550 MHz. The multiplier works by dividing the CCO output by the value of M, then using a phase-frequency detector to compare the divided CCO output to the multiplier input. The error value is used to adjust the CCO frequency. The PLL is turned off and bypassed following a chip Reset and by entering Power-down mode. PLL is enabled by software only. The program must congure and activate the PLL, wait for the PLL to lock, then connect to the PLL as a clock source.

7.25.3 Wake-up timer


The LPC2377/78 begins operation at power-up and when awakened from Power-down mode by using the 4 MHz IRC oscillator as the clock source. This allows chip operation to resume quickly. If the main oscillator or the PLL is needed by the application, software will need to enable these features and wait for them to stabilize before they are used as a clock source. When the main oscillator is initially activated, the wake-up timer allows software to ensure that the main oscillator is fully functional before the processor uses it as a clock source and starts to execute instructions. This is important at power on, all types of Reset, and whenever any of the aforementioned functions are turned off for any reason. Since the oscillator and other functions are turned off during Power-down mode, any wake-up of the processor from Power-down mode makes use of the wake-up Timer. The Wake-up Timer monitors the crystal oscillator to check whether it is safe to begin code execution. When power is applied to the chip, or when some event caused the chip to exit Power-down mode, some time is required for the oscillator to produce a signal of sufcient amplitude to drive the clock logic. The amount of time depends on many factors,

including the rate of VDD(3V3) ramp (in the case of power on), the type of crystal and its electrical characteristics (if a quartz crystal is used), as well as any other external circuitry (e.g., capacitors), and the characteristics of the oscillator itself under the existing ambient conditions.

7.25.4 Power control


The LPC2377/78 supports a variety of power control features. There are three special modes of processor power reduction: Idle mode, Sleep mode, and Power-down mode. The CPU clock rate may also be controlled as needed by changing clock sources, reconguring PLL values, and/or altering the CPU clock divider value. This allows a trade-off of power versus processing speed based on application requirements. In addition, Peripheral Power Control allows shutting down the clocks to individual on-chip peripherals, allowing ne tuning of power consumption by eliminating all dynamic power use in any peripherals that are not required for the application. Each of the peripherals has its own clock divider which provides even better power control. The LPC2377/78 also implements a separate power domain in order to allow turning off power to the bulk of the device while maintaining operation of the RTC and a small SRAM, referred to as the battery RAM. 7.25.4.1 Idle mode In Idle mode, execution of instructions is suspended until either a Reset or interrupt occurs. Peripheral functions continue operation during Idle mode and may generate interrupts to cause the processor to resume execution. Idle mode eliminates dynamic power used by the processor itself, memory systems and related controllers, and internal buses. 7.25.4.2 Sleep mode In Sleep mode, the oscillator is shut down and the chip receives no internal clocks. The processor state and registers, peripheral registers, and internal SRAM values are preserved throughout Sleep mode and the logic levels of chip pins remain static. The output of the IRC is disabled but the IRC is not powered down for a fast wake-up later. The 32 kHz RTC oscillator is not stopped because the RTC interrupts may be used as the wake-up source. The PLL is automatically turned off and disconnected. The CCLK and USB clock dividers automatically get reset to zero. The Sleep mode can be terminated and normal operation resumed by either a Reset or certain specic interrupts that are able to function without clocks. Since all dynamic operation of the chip is suspended, Sleep mode reduces chip power consumption to a very low value. The ash memory is left on in Sleep mode, allowing a very quick wake-up. On the wake-up of Sleep mode, if the IRC was used before entering Sleep mode, the code execution and peripherals activities will resume after 4 cycles expire. If the main external oscillator was used, the code execution will resume when 4096 cycles expire. The customers need to recongure the PLL and clock dividers accordingly. 7.25.4.3 Power-down mode Power-down mode does everything that Sleep mode does, but also turns off the IRC oscillator and the ash memory. This saves more power, but requires waiting for resumption of ash operation before execution of code or data access in the ash memory can be accomplished.

LPC2377/78
Single-chip 16-bit/32-bit microcontroller

On the wake-up of power-down mode, if the IRC was used before entering power-down mode, it will take IRC 60 s to start-up. After this 4 IRC cycles will expire before the code execution can then be resumed if the code was running from SRAM. In the meantime, the ash wake-up timer then counts 4 MHz IRC clock cycles to make the 100 s ash start-up time. When it times out, access to the ash will be allowed. The customers need to recongure the PLL and clock dividers accordingly. 7.25.4.4 Power domains The LPC2377/78 provides two independent power domains that allow the bulk of the device to have power removed while maintaining operation of the RTC and the battery RAM. On the LPC2377/78, I/O pads are powered by the 3.3 V (VDD(3V3)) pins, while the VDD(DCDC)(3V3) pin powers the on-chip DC-to-DC converter which in turn provides power to the CPU and most of the peripherals. Depending on the LPC2377/78 application, a design can use two power options to manage power consumption. The rst option assumes that power consumption is not a concern and the design ties the VDD(3V3) and VDD(DCDC)(3V3) pins together. This approach requires only one 3.3 V power supply for both pads, the CPU, and peripherals. While this solution is simple, it does not support powering down the I/O pad ring on the y while keeping the CPU and peripherals alive. The second option uses two power supplies; a 3.3 V supply for the I/O pads (VDD(3V3)) and a dedicated 3.3 V supply for the CPU (VDD(DCDC)(3V3)). Having the on-chip DC-to-DC converter powered independently from the I/O pad ring enables shutting down of the I/O pad power supply on the y, while the CPU and peripherals stay active. The VBAT pin supplies power only to the RTC and the battery RAM. These two functions require a minimum of power to operate, which can be supplied by an external battery. When the CPU and the rest of chip functions are stopped and power removed, the RTC can supply an alarm output that may be used by external hardware to restore chip power and resume operation.

7.26 System control


7.26.1 Reset
Reset has four sources on the LPC2377/78: the RESET pin, the Watchdog reset, power-on reset, and the BrownOut Detection (BOD) circuit. The RESET pin is a Schmitt trigger input pin. Assertion of chip Reset by any source, once the operating voltage attains a usable level, starts the Wake-up timer (see description in Section 7.25.3 Wake-up timer), causing reset to remain asserted until the external Reset is de-asserted, the oscillator is running, a xed number of clocks have passed, and the ash controller has completed its initialization. When the internal Reset is removed, the processor begins executing at address 0, which is initially the Reset vector mapped from the Boot Block. At that point, all of the processor and peripheral registers have been initialized to predetermined values.

7.26.2 Brownout detection


The LPC2377/78 includes 2-stage monitoring of the voltage on the VDD(3V3) pins. If this voltage falls below 2.95 V, the BOD asserts an interrupt signal to the Vectored Interrupt Controller. This signal can be enabled for interrupt in the Interrupt Enable Register in the VIC in order to cause a CPU interrupt; if not, software can monitor the signal by reading a dedicated status register. The second stage of low-voltage detection asserts Reset to inactivate the LPC2377/78 when the voltage on the VDD(3V3) pins falls below 2.65 V. This Reset prevents alteration of the ash as operation of the various elements of the chip would otherwise become unreliable due to low voltage. The BOD circuit maintains this reset down below 1 V, at which point the power-on reset circuitry maintains the overall Reset. Both the 2.95 V and 2.65 V thresholds include some hysteresis. In normal operation, this hysteresis allows the 2.95 V detection to reliably interrupt, or a regularly executed event loop to sense the condition.

7.26.3 Code security (Code Read Protection - CRP)


This feature of the LPC2377/78 allows user to enable different levels of security in the system so that access to the on-chip ash and use of the JTAG and ISP can be restricted. When needed, CRP is invoked by programming a specic pattern into a dedicated ash location. IAP commands are not affected by the CRP. There are three levels of the Code Read Protection. CRP1 disables access to chip via the JTAG and allows partial ash update (excluding ash sector 0) using a limited set of the ISP commands. This mode is useful when CRP is required and ash eld updates are needed but all sectors can not be erased. CRP2 disables access to chip via the JTAG and only allows full ash erase and update using a reduced set of the ISP commands. Running an application with level CRP3 selected fully disables any access to chip via the JTAG pins and the ISP. This mode effectively disables ISP override using P2[10] pin, too. It is up to the users application to provide (if needed) ash update mechanism using IAP calls or call reinvoke ISP command to enable ash update via UART0.
CAUTION If level three Code Read Protection (CRP3) is selected, no future factory testing can be performed on the device.

7.26.4 AHB
The LPC2377/78 implements two AHBs in order to allow the Ethernet block to operate without interference caused by other system activity. The primary AHB, referred to as AHB1, includes the Vectored Interrupt Controller, GPDMA controller, USB interface, and 8 kB SRAM primarily intended for use by the USB.

Single-chip 16-bit/32-bit microcontroller

The second AHB, referred to as AHB2, includes only the Ethernet block and an associated 16 kB SRAM. In addition, a bus bridge is provided that allows the secondary AHB to be a bus master on AHB1, allowing expansion of Ethernet buffer space into off-chip memory or unused space in memory residing on AHB1. In summary, bus masters with access to AHB1 are the ARM7 itself, the USB block, the GPDMA function, and the Ethernet block (via the bus bridge from AHB2). Bus masters with access to AHB2 are the ARM7 and the Ethernet block.

7.26.5 External interrupt inputs


The LPC2377/78 includes up to 50 edge sensitive interrupt inputs combined with up to four level sensitive external interrupt inputs as selectable pin functions. The external interrupt inputs can optionally be used to wake up the processor from Power-down mode.

7.26.6 Memory mapping control


The memory mapping control alters the mapping of the interrupt vectors that appear at the beginning at address 0x0000 0000. Vectors may be mapped to the bottom of the Boot ROM, the SRAM, or external memory. This allows code running in different memory spaces to have control of the interrupts.

7.27 Emulation and debugging


The LPC2377/78 support emulation and debugging via a JTAG serial port. A trace port allows tracing program execution. Debugging and trace functions are multiplexed only with GPIOs on P2[0] to P2[9]. This means that all communication, timer, and interface peripherals residing on other pins are available during the development and debugging phase as they are when the application is run in the embedded system itself.

7.27.1 EmbeddedICE
The EmbeddedICE logic provides on-chip debug support. The debugging of the target system requires a host computer running the debugger software and an EmbeddedICE protocol convertor. The EmbeddedICE protocol convertor converts the Remote Debug Protocol commands to the JTAG data needed to access the ARM7TDMI-S core present on the target system. The ARM core has a Debug Communication Channel (DCC) function built-in. The DCC allows a program running on the target to communicate with the host debugger or another separate host without stopping the program ow or even entering the debug state. The DCC is accessed as a coprocessor 14 by the program running on the ARM7TDMI-S core. The DCC allows the JTAG port to be used for sending and receiving data without affecting the normal program ow. The DCC data and control registers are mapped in to addresses in the EmbeddedICE logic. The JTAG clock (TCK) must be slower than 16 of the CPU clock (CCLK) for the JTAG interface to operate.

7.27.2 Embedded trace


Since the LPC2377/78 has signicant amounts of on-chip memories, it is not possible to determine how the processor core is operating simply by observing the external pins. The ETM provides real-time trace capability for deeply embedded processor cores. It outputs

information about processor execution to a trace port. A software debugger allows conguration of the ETM using a JTAG interface and displays the trace information that has been captured. The ETM is connected directly to the ARM core and not to the main AMBA system bus. It compresses the trace information and exports it through a narrow trace port. An external Trace Port Analyzer captures the trace information under software debugger control. The trace port can broadcast the Instruction trace information. Instruction trace (or PC trace) shows the ow of execution of the processor and provides a list of all the instructions that were executed. Instruction trace is signicantly compressed by only broadcasting branch addresses as well as a set of status signals that indicate the pipeline status on a cycle by cycle basis. Trace information generation can be controlled by selecting the trigger resource. Trigger resources include address comparators, counters and sequencers. Since trace information is compressed the software debugger requires a static image of the code being executed. Self-modifying code can not be traced because of this restriction.

7.27.3 RealMonitor
RealMonitor is a congurable software module, developed by ARM Inc., which enables real-time debug. It is a lightweight debug monitor that runs in the background while users debug their foreground application. It communicates with the host using the DCC, which is present in the EmbeddedICE logic. The LPC2377/78 contain a specic conguration of RealMonitor software programmed into the on-chip ROM memory.
