Intended for embedded applications, LPC1788 features ARM Cortex-M3 CPU that has 3-stage pipeline, Harvard architecture with separate local instruction and data buses, third bus for peripherals, and internal pre-fetch unit that supports speculative branches. Cortex-M3 core offers debug features and supports block integration. Targeted to operate at up to 100 MHz CPU frequency, MCU also offers flash memory accelerator to accomplish optimal performance when executing code from flash.
