1. General description
NXP Semiconductors designed the LPC2420/2460 microcontroller around a 16-bit/32-bit
ARM7TDMI-S CPU core with real-time debug interfaces that include both JTAG and
embedded trace. The LPC2420/2460 is flashless. The LPC2420/2460 can execute both
32-bit ARM and 16-bit Thumb instructions. Support for the two instruction sets means
engineers can choose to optimize their application for either performance or code size at
the sub-routine level. When the core executes instructions in Thumb state it can reduce
code size by more than 30 % with only a small loss in performance while executing
instructions in ARM state maximizes core performance.
The LPC2420/2460 microcontroller is ideal for multi-purpose communication applications.
It incorporates a 10/100 Ethernet Media Access Controller (MAC) (LPC2460 only), a USB
full-speed device/host/OTG controller with 4 kB of endpoint RAM, four UARTs, two
Controller Area Network (CAN) channels (LPC2460 only), an SPI interface, two
Synchronous Serial Ports (SSP), three I2C interfaces, and an I2S interface. Supporting
this collection of serial communications interfaces are the following feature components;
an on-chip 4 MHz internal precision oscillator, 82/98 kB of total RAM consisting of 64 kB
of local SRAM, 16 kB SRAM for Ethernet (LPC2460 only), 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 communication gateways
and protocol converters. Complementing the many serial communication controllers,
versatile clocking capabilities, and memory features are various 32-bit timers, an
improved 10-bit ADC, 10-bit DAC, two PWM units, four external interrupt pins, and up to
160 fast GPIO lines. The LPC2420/2460 connects 64 of the GPIO pins to the hardware
based Vector Interrupt Controller (VIC) that means these external inputs can generate
edge-triggered interrupts. All of these features make the LPC2420/2460 particularly
suitable for industrial control and medical systems.

outputs. Each timer block has an external count input.
‹ Two PWM/timer blocks with support for three-phase motor control. Each PWM has
an external count inputs.
‹ RTC with separate power domain. Clock source can be the RTC oscillator or the
APB clock.
‹ 2 kB SRAM powered from the RTC power pin, allowing data to be stored when the
rest of the chip is powered off.
‹ WatchDog Timer (WDT). The WDT can be clocked from the internal RC oscillator,
the RTC oscillator, or the APB clock.
„ Standard ARM test/debug interface for compatibility with existing tools.
„ Emulation trace module supports real-time trace.
„ Single 3.3 V power supply (3.0 V to 3.6 V).
„ Four reduced power modes: idle, sleep, power-down, and deep power-down.
„ Four external interrupt inputs configurable as edge/level sensitive. All pins on port 0
and port 2 can be used as edge sensitive interrupt sources.
„ Processor wake-up from Power-down mode via any interrupt able to operate during
Power-down mode (includes external interrupts, RTC interrupt, USB activity, port 0/2
pin interrupt, Ethernet wake-up interrupt (LPC2460 only), CAN bus activity (LPC2460
only)).

„ Two independent power domains allow fine tuning of power consumption based on
needed features.
„ Each peripheral has its own clock divider for further power saving. These dividers help
reduce active power by 20 % to 30 %.
„ Brownout detect with separate thresholds for interrupt and forced reset.
„ On-chip power-on reset.
„ On-chip crystal oscillator with an operating range of 1 MHz to 24 MHz.
„ 4 MHz internal RC oscillator trimmed to 1 % accuracy that can optionally be used as
the system clock. When used as the CPU clock, does not allow CAN and USB to run.
„ On-chip PLL allows CPU operation up to the maximum CPU rate without the need for
a high frequency crystal. May be run from the main oscillator, the internal RC oscillator,
or the RTC oscillator.
„ Boundary scan for simplified board testing.

Flashless 16-bit/32-bit microcontroller
7. Functional description
7.1 Architectural overview
The LPC2420/2460 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 LPC2460 only 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 (LPC2460 only), 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
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.
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

LPC2420/2460
NXP Semiconductors
Flashless 16-bit/32-bit microcontroller
The 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 SRAM
The LPC2420/2460 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 (LPC2460 only) and a
16 kB SRAM associated with the second AHB can be used both for data and code
storage, too. 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.
7.3 Memory map
The LPC2420/2460 memory map incorporates several distinct regions as shown in
Table 5 and Figure 4.
In addition, the CPU interrupt vectors may be remapped to allow them to reside in either
boot ROM or SRAM (see Section 7.25.6).

7.4 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.
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

Flashless 16-bit/32-bit microcontroller
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
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 sources
Each 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 block
The 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 controller
The LPC2420/2460 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.

• 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 controller
The GPDMA is an AMBA AHB compliant peripheral allowing selected LPC2420/2460
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 I2S 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.

• 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/O
Device 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.
LPC2420/2460 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 Ethernet (LPC2460 only)
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, 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.
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 traffic
in the LPC2420/2460 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.
The Ethernet block interfaces between an off-chip Ethernet PHY using the Media
Independent Interface (MII) or Reduced MII (RMII) protocol and the on-chip Media
Independent Interface Management (MIIM) serial bus.
7.9.1 Features

Redundancy Check (CRC) for transmit.
– Selectable automatic transmit frame padding.

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 LPC2420/2460 USB interface includes a device, host, and OTG controller. Details on

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.

7.11 CAN controller and acceptance filters (LPC2460 only)
The 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.

7.18 I2C-bus serial I/O controller
The LPC2420/2460 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 LPC2420/2460 supports bit rates up to 400 kbit/s (Fast
I2C-bus).

NXP Semiconductors
Flashless 16-bit/32-bit microcontroller
The I2S-bus specification defines 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 LPC2420/2460 provides a separate
transmit and receive channel, each of which can operate as either a master or a slave.
7.19.1 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.
• Configurable word select period in master mode (separately for I2S-bus 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

7.20 General purpose 32-bit timers/external event counters
The LPC2420/2460 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.
7.20.1 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.
• Four 32-bit match registers that 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.
• Up to four external outputs corresponding to match registers, with the following
capabilities:

– Do nothing on match.
7.21 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 LPC2420/2460. 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).
7.21.1 Features
• LPC2420/2460 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.

• 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.
7.22 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.
7.22.1 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.

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.
7.23 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 and Deep power-down modes. On the
LPC2420/2460, 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.
7.23.1 Features

• 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.
7.24 Clocking and power control
7.24.1 Crystal oscillators
The LPC2420/2460 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 LPC2420/2460 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.
7.24.1.1
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 LPC2420/2460 uses the IRC as the clock source.
Software may later switch to one of the other available clock sources.
7.24.1.2
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 24 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

LPC2420/2460
NXP Semiconductors
Flashless 16-bit/32-bit microcontroller
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 7.24.2 for additional information.
7.24.1.3
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.
7.24.2 PLL
The PLL accepts an input clock frequency in the range of 32 kHz to 24 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 24 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.
7.24.3 Wake-up timer
The LPC2420/2460 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
Flashless 16-bit/32-bit microcontroller
7.24.4 Power control
The LPC2420/2460 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 LPC2420/2460 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.
7.24.4.1
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.
7.24.4.2
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 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.
7.24.4.3
Power-down mode
Power-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 μs 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.

Flashless 16-bit/32-bit microcontroller
7.24.4.4
Deep power-down mode
Deep 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 LPC2420/2460 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 LPC2420/2460 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.
7.24.4.5
Power domains
The LPC2420/2460 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 LPC2420/2460, 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.

NXP Semiconductors
Flashless 16-bit/32-bit microcontroller
7.25 System control
7.25.1 Reset
Reset has four sources on the LPC2420/2460: 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 7.24.3 “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 LPC2420/2460 continues with booting
from an external static memory.
7.25.2 Boot process
The processor always boots from the off-chip static memory bank 1, executing code from
address 0x8100 0000 (see Table 5 “LPC2420/2460 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 13.4 “Suggested boot memory interface solutions” for
an example of address and data bus interfacing.
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.
7.25.3 Brownout detection
The LPC2420/2460 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 LPC2420/2460 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.

7.25.4 AHB
The LPC2460 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, is
implemented on LPC2420 as well and includes the Vectored Interrupt Controller, GPDMA
controller, USB interface, and 16 kB SRAM.
The second AHB, referred to as AHB2, is implemented on LPC2460 only and 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.
7.25.5 External interrupt inputs
The LPC2420/2460 includes up to 68 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.
7.25.6 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.
7.26 Emulation and debugging
The LPC2420/2460 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.
7.26.1 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 flow 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 flow. The DCC data and control registers are mapped in to addresses
in the EmbeddedICE logic.

NXP Semiconductors
Flashless 16-bit/32-bit microcontroller
The JTAG clock (TCK) must be slower than 1⁄6 of the CPU clock (CCLK) for the JTAG
interface to operate.
7.26.2 Embedded trace
Since the LPC2420/2460 have significant 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
configuration 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 flow of execution of the processor and provides a list of all the instructions that
were executed. Instruction trace is significantly 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.
7.26.3 RealMonitor
RealMonitor is a configurable 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 LPC2420/2460 contain a specific configuration of
RealMonitor software programmed into the on-chip ROM memory.

[2]
The ADC is monotonic, there are no missing codes.
[3]
The differential linearity error (ED) is the difference between the actual step width and the ideal step width. See Figure 17.
[4]
The integral non-linearity (EL(adj)) is the peak difference between the center of the steps of the actual and the ideal transfer curve after
appropriate adjustment of gain and offset errors. See Figure 17.
[5]
The offset error (EO) is the absolute difference between the straight line which fits the actual curve and the straight line which fits the
ideal curve. See Figure 17.
[6]
The gain error (EG) is the relative difference in percent between the straight line fitting the actual transfer curve after removing offset
error, and the straight line which fits the ideal transfer curve. See Figure 17.
[7]
The absolute error (ET) is the maximum difference between the center of the steps of the actual transfer curve of the non-calibrated
ADC and the ideal transfer curve. See Figure 17.
[8]
See Figure 18.

13.2 XTAL1 input
The input voltage to the on-chip oscillators is limited to 1.8 V. If the oscillator is driven by a
clock in slave mode, it is recommended that the input be coupled through a capacitor with
Ci = 100 pF. To limit the input voltage to the specified range, choose an additional
capacitor to ground Cg which attenuates the input voltage by a factor Ci/(Ci + Cg). In slave
mode, a minimum of 200 mVrms is needed. For more details see the LPC24xx User
manual UM10237.

13.3 XTAL and RTC Printed Circuit Board (PCB) layout guidelines
The crystal should be connected on the PCB as close as possible to the oscillator input
and output pins of the chip. Take care that the load capacitors Cx1 and Cx2, and Cx3 in
case of third overtone crystal usage, have a common ground plane. The external
components must also be connected to the ground plain. Loops must be made as small
as possible, in order to keep the noise coupled in via the PCB as small as possible. Also
parasitics should stay as small as possible. Values of Cx1 and Cx2 should be chosen
smaller accordingly to the increase in parasitics of the PCB layout.
