Flashless 16-bit/32-bit microcontroller; Ethernet, CAN, LCD, USB 2.0 device/host/OTG, external memory interface
1. General descriptionNXP Semiconductors designed the LPC2470 microcontroller, powered by the
ARM7TDMI-S core, to be a highly integrated microcontroller for a wide range of
applications that require advanced communications and high quality graphic displays. The
LPC2470 microcontroller is flashless. The LPC2470, with real-time debug interfaces that
include both JTAG and embedded trace, can execute both 32-bit ARM and 16-bit Thumb
instructions.
The LPC2470 microcontroller incorporates an LCD controller, a 10/100 Ethernet Media
Access Controller (MAC), a USB full-speed device/host/OTG controller with 4 kB of
endpoint RAM, four UARTs, two Controller Area Network (CAN) channels, an SPI
interface, two Synchronous Serial Ports (SSP), three I2 C interfaces, and an I2 S interface.
Supporting this collection of serial communications interfaces are the following feature
components; an on-chip 4 MHz internal oscillator, 98 kB of total RAM consisting of 64 kB
of local SRAM, 16 kB SRAM for Ethernet, 16 kB SRAM for general purpose DMA, 2 kB of
battery powered SRAM, and an External Memory Controller (EMC). These features make
this device optimally suited for portable electronics and Point-of-Sale (POS) applications.
Complementing the many serial communication controllers, versatile clocking capabilities,
and memory features are various 32-bit timers, a 10-bit ADC, 10-bit DAC, two PWM units,
and up to 160 fast GPIO lines. The LPC2470 connects 64 of the GPIO pins to the
hardware based Vector Interrupt Controller (VIC), allowing the external inputs to generate
edge-triggered interrupts. All of these features make the LPC2470 particularly suitable for
industrial control and medical systems.

NXP Semiconductors LPC2470
Flashless 16-bit/32-bit microcontroller
7. Functional description
7.1 Architectural overview The LPC2470 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 configures the ARM7TDMI-S processor for little-endian byte
order.
The LPC2470 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 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. The
AHB to APB bridge interfaces the APB to the AHB. APB peripherals are also allocated a 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.
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
NXP Semiconductors LPC2470
Flashless 16-bit/32-bit microcontrollerThe Thumb set’s 16-bit instruction length allows it to approach higher density compared to
standard ARM code while retaining most of the ARM’s performance.
7.2 On-chip SRAMThe LPC2470 includes a SRAM memory of 64 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 a 16 kB SRAM
associated with the second AHB can be used both for data and code storage, too. The 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.
7.3 Memory mapThe LPC2470 memory map incorporates several distinct regions as shown in Table 5 and
Figure4.
In addition, the CPU interrupt vectors may be remapped to allow them to reside in either
boot ROM or SRAM (see Section 7.26.6).

Flashless 16-bit/32-bit microcontroller
7.4 Interrupt controllerThe 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.
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 classified as FIQ, because then the FIQ
NXP Semiconductors LPC2470
Flashless 16-bit/32-bit microcontrollerservice 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
identifies which FIQ source(s) is (are) requesting an interrupt.
Vectored IRQs, which include all interrupt requests that are not classified 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 first.
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.
7.4.1 Interrupt sourcesEach peripheral device has one interrupt line connected to the VIC but may have several
interrupt flags. Individual interrupt flags may also represent more than one interrupt
source.
Any pin on port 0 and port 2 (total of 64 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 port 0 and/or port 2 will be combined with the EINT3
interrupt requests.
7.5 Pin connect blockThe pin connect block allows selected pins of the microcontroller to have more than one
function. Configuration 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 undefined.
7.6 External memory controllerThe LPC2470 EMC is an ARM PrimeCell MultiPort Memory Controller peripheral offering
support for asynchronous static memory devices such as RAM, ROM, and flash. 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.
7.6.1 Features Dynamic memory interface support including single data rate SDRAM.
Asynchronous static memory device support including RAM, ROM, and flash, with or
without asynchronous page mode.
Low transaction latency.
Read and write buffers to reduce latency and to improve performance.
8/16/32 data and 24 address lines wide static memory support.
16 bit and 32 bit wide chip select SDRAM memory support.
Static memory features include:
NXP Semiconductors LPC2470
Flashless 16-bit/32-bit microcontroller Asynchronous page mode read
Programmable Wait States
Bus turnaround delay
Output enable and write enable delays
Extended wait
Four chip selects for synchronous memory and four chip selects for static memory
devices.
Power-saving modes dynamically control CKE and CLKOUT to SDRAMs.
Dynamic memory self-refresh mode controlled by software.
Controller supports 2048, 4096, and 8192 row address synchronous memory parts.
That is typical 512 MB, 256 MB, and 128 MB parts, with 4, 8, 16, or 32 data bits per
device.
Separate reset domains allow the for auto-refresh through a chip reset if desired.
Note: Synchronous static memory devices (synchronous burst mode) are not supported.
7.7 General purpose DMA controllerThe GPDMA is an AMBA AHB compliant peripheral allowing selected LPC2470
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.
7.7.1 Features Two DMA channels. Each channel can support a unidirectional transfer.
The GPDMA can transfer data between the 16 kB SRAM, external memory, and
peripherals such as the SD/MMC, two SSPs, and the I2 S interface.
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 specific 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 first.
AHB slave DMA programming interface. The GPDMA is programmed by writing to the
DMA control registers over the AHB slave interface.
NXP Semiconductors LPC2470
Flashless 16-bit/32-bit microcontroller 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
efficiently 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.
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.
7.8 Fast general purpose parallel I/ODevice pins that are not connected to a specific peripheral function are controlled by the
GPIO registers. Pins may be dynamically configured 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.
LPC2470 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 port 0 and port 2 (total of 64 pins) that is not configured as an
analog input/output 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
the chip up from Power-down mode.
7.8.1 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 port 0 and
port 1 registers appearing at the original addresses on the APB.

7.9 LCD controllerThe LCD controller provides all of the necessary control signals to interface directly to a
variety of color and monochrome LCD panels. Both STN (single and dual panel) and TFT
panels can be operated. The display resolution is selectable and can be up to 1024 768
pixels. Several color modes are provided, up to a 24-bit true-color non-palettized mode.
An on-chip 512-byte color palette allows reducing bus utilization (i.e. memory size of the
displayed data) while still supporting a large number of colors.
The LCD interface includes its own DMA controller to allow it to operate independently of
the CPU and other system functions. A built-in FIFO acts as a buffer for display data,
providing flexibility for system timing. Hardware cursor support can further reduce the
amount of CPU time needed to operate the display.
7.9.1 Features AHB bus master interface to access frame buffer.
Setup and control via a separate AHB slave interface.
Dual 16-deep programmable 64-bit wide FIFOs for buffering incoming display data.

7.10 EthernetThe 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, flow control, control frames, hardware acceleration for transmit retry, receive
packet filtering and wake-up on LAN activity. Automatic frame transmission and reception
with scatter-gather DMA off-loads many operations from the CPU.
NXP Semiconductors LPC2470
Flashless 16-bit/32-bit microcontrollerThe 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 traffic
in the LPC2470 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 memory
via the EMC, as well as the SRAM located on another AHB. However, using memory
other than the Ethernet SRAM, especially off-chip memory, will slow Ethernet access to
memory and increase the loading of its AHB.

Independent Interface (MII) or Reduced MII (RMII) protocol and the on-chip Media
Independent Interface Management (MIIM) serial bus.

7.11 USB interfaceThe Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a 4-wire bus that supports communication between a
host and one or more (up to 127) peripherals. The host controller allocates the USB
bandwidth to attached devices through a token-based protocol. The bus supports hot
plugging and dynamic configuration of the devices. All transactions are initiated by the
host controller.
The LPC2470 USB interface includes a device, host, and OTG controller. Details on
typical USB interfacing solutions can be found in Section 14.3 “Suggested USB interface
solutions” on page 73
7.11.1 USB device controllerThe device controller enables 12 Mbit/s data exchange with a USB host controller. It
consists of a register interface, serial interface engine, endpoint buffer memory, and a
DMA controller. The serial interface engine decodes the USB data stream and writes data
to the appropriate endpoint buffer. The status of a completed USB transfer or error
condition is indicated via status registers. An interrupt is also generated if enabled. When
enabled, the DMA controller transfers data between the endpoint buffer and the USB
RAM.

(CEA-2011), Rev. 1.0.
7.12 CAN controller and acceptance filtersThe Controller Area Network (CAN) is a serial communications protocol which efficiently
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 between two 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 main operational difference is
that the recognition of received Identifiers, known in CAN terminology as Acceptance
Filtering, has been removed from the CAN controllers and centralized in a global
Acceptance Filter.

7.16 SPI serial I/O controllerThe LPC2470 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.

a SPI, 4-wire SSI, or Microwire bus. It can interact with multiple masters and slaves on the
bus. Only a single master and a single slave can communicate on the bus during a given
data transfer. The SSP supports full duplex transfers, with frames of 4 bits to 16 bits of
data flowing from the master to the slave and from the slave to the master. In practice,
often only one of these data flows carries meaningful data.

7.19I2 C-bus serial I/O controllerThe LPC2470 contains three I2 C-bus controllers.
The I2 C-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 I2 C-bus is a multi-master bus and can
be controlled by more than one bus master connected to it.
The I2 C-bus implemented in LPC2470 supports bit rates up to 400 kbit/s (Fast I2 C-bus).
7.19.1 FeaturesI2 C0 is a standard I2 C compliant bus interface with open-drain pins.
I2 C1 and I2 C2 use standard I/O pins and do not support powering off of individual
devices connected to the same bus lines.

Bidirectional data transfer between masters and slaves.
Multi-master bus (no central master).
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 I2 C-bus can be used for test and diagnostic purposes.
7.20I2 S-bus serial I/O controllersThe I2 S-bus provides a standard communication interface for digital audio applications.
The I2 S-bus specification defines a 3-wire serial bus using one data line, one clock line,
and one word select signal. The basic I2 S connection has one master, which is always the
master, and one slave. The I2 S interface on the LPC2470 provides a separate transmit
and receive channel, each of which can operate as either a master or a slave.
NXP Semiconductors LPC2470
Flashless 16-bit/32-bit microcontroller
7.20.1 Features The interface has separate input/output channels each of which can operate in master
or slave mode.

to the GPDMA block.
Controls include reset, stop and mute options separately for I2 S input and I2 S output.
7.21 General purpose 32-bit timers/external event countersThe LPC2470 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 specified 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.

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.
NXP Semiconductors LPC2470
Flashless 16-bit/32-bit microcontroller
7.22 Pulse width modulatorThe PWM is based on the standard Timer block and inherits all of its features, although
only the PWM function is pinned out on the LPC2470. The Timer is designed to count
cycles of the system derived clock and optionally switch pins, generate interrupts or
perform other actions when specified 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. A
dedicated match register 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, a dedicated 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, specific 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 LPC2470 has two PWMs with the same operational features. These may be operated
in a synchronized fashion by setting them both up to run at the same rate, then
enabling both simultaneously. PWM0 acts as the master and PWM1 as the slave for
this use.
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.
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.
NXP Semiconductors LPC2470
Flashless 16-bit/32-bit microcontroller Pulse period and width can be any number of timer counts. This allows complete
flexibility 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 timerThe 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.
The Watchdog Clock (WDCLK) source can be selected from the RTC clock, the
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.
7.24 RTC and battery RAMThe 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 and Deep power-down modes. On the
LPC2470, 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 3.3V
supply used by the rest of the device.
NXP Semiconductors LPC2470
Flashless 16-bit/32-bit microcontrollerThe 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 3.3V.
An alarm output pin is included to assist in waking up 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 field of the time registers,
and selected fractional second values. This enhancement enables the RTC to be
used as a System Timer.
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 oscillatorsThe LPC2470 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 LPC2470 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 oscillatorThe 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 LPC2470 uses the IRC as the clock source.
Software may later switch to one of the other available clock sources.
7.25.1.2 Main oscillatorThe 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
NXP Semiconductors LPC2470
Flashless 16-bit/32-bit microcontrollerclock 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 oscillatorThe 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 PLLThe 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 configure and activate the PLL,
wait for the PLL to lock, then connect to the PLL as a clock source.
7.25.3 Wake-up timerThe LPC2470 begins operation at power-up and when awakened from Power-down and
Deep-power down modes 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 and Deep power-down
modes, any wake-up of the processor from Power-down modes 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
sufficient 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.
NXP Semiconductors LPC2470
Flashless 16-bit/32-bit microcontroller
7.25.4 Power controlThe LPC2470 supports a variety of power control features. There are four special modes
of processor power reduction: Idle mode, Sleep mode, Power-down mode, and Deep
power-down mode. The CPU clock rate may also be controlled as needed by changing
clock sources, reconfiguring 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 fine 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 LPC2470 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 modeIn 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 modeIn 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 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 specific 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.
On the wake-up from 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 reconfigure the PLL and clock dividers accordingly.
7.25.4.3 Power-down modePower-down mode does everything that Sleep mode does but also turns off the IRC
oscillator.
On the wake-up from 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. The
customers need to reconfigure the PLL and clock dividers accordingly after a wake-up
from Power-down mode.
NXP Semiconductors LPC2470
Flashless 16-bit/32-bit microcontroller
7.25.4.4 Deep power-down modeDeep power-down mode is similar to the Power-down mode, but now the on-chip
regulator that supplies power to the internal logic is also shut off. This produces the lowest
possible power consumption without removing power from the entire chip. Since the Deep
power-down mode shuts down the on-chip logic power supply, there is no register or
memory retention, and resumption of operation involves the same activities as a full chip
reset.
If power is supplied to the LPC2470 during Deep power-down mode, wake-up can be
caused by the RTC Alarm interrupt or by external Reset.
While in Deep power-down mode, external device power may be removed. In this case,
the LPC2470 will start up when external power is restored.
Essential data may be retained through Deep power-down mode (or through complete
powering off of the chip) by storing data in the Battery RAM, as long as the external power
to the VBAT pin is maintained.
7.25.4.5 Power domainsThe LPC2470 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 LPC2470, I/O pads are powered by the 3.3 V (VDD(3V3)) pins, while the
VDD(DCDC)(3V3) pins power the on-chip DC-to-DC converter which in turn provides power to
the CPU and most of the peripherals.
Although both the I/O pad ring and the core require a 3.3 V supply, different powering
schemes can be used depending on the actual application requirements.
The first 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 fly” 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-DC
converter powered independently from the I/O pad ring enables shutting down of the I/O
pad power supply “on the fly”, 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 ResetReset has four sources on the LPC2470: 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
NXP Semiconductors LPC2470
Flashless 16-bit/32-bit microcontrollerlevel, 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, and a fixed number of clocks have passed.
Once the internal reset is removed, all of the processor and peripheral registers have
been initialized to predetermined values and the LPC2470 continues with booting from an
external static memory.
7.26.2 Boot processThe processor always boots from the off-chip static memory bank 1, executing code from
address 0x8100 0000 (see Table 5 “LPC2470 memory usage and details”). During the
boot process initiated by POR, the boot pins P3[15]/D15 and P3[14]/D14 are sampled,
and the external memory banks 0 and 1 are configured with the same data bus width. The
data bus width is determined by the setting of the two boot pins. Unused address pins are
configured as GPIO. See Section 14.2 “Suggested boot memory interface solutions” for
address and data bus interface details.
Remark: After POR, the address ranges of chip select 1 and chip select 0 are swapped. The user code residing in the external boot memory must be linked to execute from
address location 0x8000 0000.
When booting from external memory, the interrupt vectors are mapped to the bottom of
the external memory. Once booting is over, the application must map interrupt vectors to
the proper domain.
7.26.3 Brownout detectionThe LPC2470 includes 2-stage monitoring of the voltage on the VDD(DCDC)(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 a BOD Reset and generates a Reset (if
this reset source is enabled in software) to inactivate the LPC2470 when the voltage on
the VDD(DCDC)(3V3) pins falls below 2.65 V. 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.
7.26.4 AHB The LPC2470 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 Vectored Interrupt Controller, GPDMA controller, USB interface, and 16 kB
SRAM.
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.
