eLPC48 System On Module

The eLPC48 Module is a SOM based on the NXP LPC21xx microcontroller series. This module was designed and is manufactured by eSysTech as one of the alternatives in the eSysTech eLPC family of SOMs.

The eLPC48 Module consists of a half-credit card size PCB that implements the core of a microprocessor system based on the ARM7TDMI-S architecture. The eLPC48 Module follows the concept of SOM (System On Module). It implements the essential functions (microcontroller, power, and clock) of an embedded system and provides a standard interface for the implementation of specific functions on a base board. This module may be used for both, engineering purposes and for integration in final products.

Characteristics of the Module

The eLPC48 Module supports the LQFP48 members (48 pins)of the NXP LPC21xx microcontroller series including microcontrollers form LPC2101 to LPC2106.

The figure below shows the back face of the eLPC48 module. All I/O pins of the microcontroller are available through a 60-pin 0.1” header. This connector allows for easy access to the SOM´s signals as well as facilitating the construction of boards with peripheral devices and interfaces.

The standard assembly of the eLPC48 uses a NXP LPC2103 microcontroller with 32K of flash memory and 8K of RAM. Other models of the LPC21xx can be assembled on demand.
