GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The NUC970 series targeted for general purpose 32-bit microcontroller embeds an outstanding
CPU core ARM926EJ-S, a RISC processor designed by Advanced RISC Machines Ltd., runs up
to 300 MHz, with 16 KB I-cache, 16 KB D-cache and MMU, 56KB embedded SRAM and 16 KB
IBR (Internal Boot ROM) for booting from USB, NAND and SPI FLASH.
The NUC970 series integrates two 10/100 Mb Ethernet MAC controllers, USB 2.0 HS
HOST/Device controller with HS transceiver embedded, TFT type LCD controller, CMOS sensor
I/F controller, 2D graphics engine, DES/3DES/AES crypto engine, I
2
S I/F controller,
SD/MMC/NAND FLASH controller, GDMA and 8 channels 12-bit ADC controller with resistance
touch screen functionality. It also integrates UART, SPI/MICROWIRE, I
2
C, CAN, LIN, PWM,
Timer, WDT/Windowed-WDT, GPIO, Keypad, Smart Card I/F, 32.768 KHz XTL and RTC (Real
Time Clock).
In addition, the NUC970 series integrates a DRAM I/F, that runs up to 150MHz with supporting
DDR2 type SDRAM, and an External Bus Interface (EBI) that supports SRAM and external device
with DMA request and ack.
