    Designing LCD Applications with NXP Cortex-M Products


ARM Cortex-M4 core MCUs

NXP's new Digital Signal Control (DSC) processors, based on the ARM® Cortex™-M4 microcontroller core, bring high-performance signal processing capabilities within the reach of the typical MCU programmer. These DSC processors offer a high level of system integration, reducing system design cost and complexity, while simplifying the design cycle using a single tool chain. Additionally, our Cortex-M4 based-products will be upwardly code compatible from existing Cortex-M3 and Cortex-M0 processors. These products are an ideal single-chip solution for applications such as motor control, power conversion, audio, and communications.
