6. Pinning information
6.1 Pin description
Table 4 shows the pin functions available on each pin, and for each package. These
functions are selectable using the IOCON control registers.
Some functions, such as ADC or comparator inputs, are available only on specific pins
when digital functions are disabled on those pins. By default, the GPIO function is
selected except on pins PIO0_11 an PIO0_12, which are the serial wire debug pins. This
allows debug to operate through reset.
All pins have all pull-ups, pull-downs, and inputs turned off at reset except PIO0_2,
PIO0_5, PIO0_11, PIO0_12, PIO0_13 and PIO0_14 pins. This prevents power loss
through pins prior to software configuration. Due to special pin functions, some pins have
a different reset configuration. PIO0_5 and PIO0_12 pins have internal pull-up enabled by
default, and PIO0_2 and PIO0_11 have internal pull-down enabled by default. PIO0_13
and PIO0_14 are true open drain pins. Refer to pin description table for default reset
configuration.
The state of port pin PIO0_5 at Reset determines the boot source of the part or if the
handler is invoked.
The external reset pin or 3 wake-up pins can trigger a wake-up from deep power-down
mode. For the wake-up pins, do not assign any function to this pin if it will be used as a
wake-up input when using deep power-down mode. If not in deep power-down mode, a
function can be assigned to this pin. If the pin is used for wake-up, it should be pulled
HIGH externally before entering deep power-down mode. A LOW-going pulse as short as
50 ns causes the chip to exit deep power-down mode wakes up the part.
The JTAG functions TRST, TCK, TMS, TDI, and TDO, are selected on pins PIO0_2 to
PIO0_6 by hardware when the part is in boundary scan mode. The JTAG functions cannot
be used for debug mode.

6.1.1 Termination of unused pins
Table 4 shows how to terminate pins that are not used in the application. In many cases,
unused pins should be connected externally or configured correctly by software to
minimize the overall power consumption of the part.
Unused pins with GPIO function should be configured as outputs set to LOW with their
internal pull-up disabled. To configure a GPIO pin as output and drive it LOW, select the
GPIO function in the IOCON register, select output in the GPIO DIR register, and write a 0
to the GPIO PORT register for that pin. Disable the pull-up in the pin’s IOCON register.
In addition, it is recommended to configure all GPIO pins that are not bonded out on
smaller packages as outputs driven LOW with their internal pull-up disabled.

7. Functional description
7.1 Architectural overview
The Arm Cortex M33 includes two AHB-Lite buses, one system bus and one code and
bus. The Code AHB (C-AHB) interface is used for any instruction fetch and data access to
the Code region of the ARMv8-M memory map ([0x00000000 - 0x1FFFFFFF]). The
System AHB (S-AHB) interface is used for instruction fetch and data access to all other
regions of the ARMv8-M memory map ([0x20000000 - 0xFFFFFFFF]).
The LPC55S1x/LPC551x uses a multi-layer AHB matrix to connect the ARM Cortex-M33
buses and other bus masters to peripherals in a flexible manner that optimizes
performance by allowing peripherals that are on different slave ports of the matrix to be
accessed simultaneously by different bus masters. Figure 3 “LPC55S1x/LPC551x Block
diagram shows details of the available matrix connections.
7.2 Arm Cortex-M33 processor
The ARM Cortex-M33 is based on the ARMv8-M architecture that offers systems
enhancements, such as ARM TrustZone® security, single-cycle digital signal processing,
low power consumption, enhanced debug features, and a high level of support block
integration. The ARM Cortex-M33 CPU employs a 7-stage instruction pipe and includes
an internal prefetch unit that supports speculative branching. A hardware floating-point
processor is integrated into the core. On the LPC55S1x/LPC551x, the Cortex-M33 is
augmented with two hardware co-processors providing accelerated support for additional
DSP algorithms and cryptography.
The Arm Cortex M33 provides a security foundation, offering isolation to protect valuable
IP and data with TrustZone technology. It simplifies the design and software development
of digital signal control systems with the integrated digital signal processing (DSP)
instructions.
7.3 Arm Cortex-M33 integrated Floating Point Unit (FPU)
The FPU fully supports single-precision add, subtract, multiply, divide, multiply and
accumulate, and square root operations. It also provides conversions between fixed-point
and floating-point data formats, and floating-point constant instructions.
The FPU provides floating-point computation functionality that is compliant with the
ANSI/IEEE Std 754-2008, IEEE Standard for Binary Floating-Point Arithmetic, referred to
as the IEEE 754 standard.
7.4 Memory Protection Unit (MPU)
The Cortex-M33 includes a Memory Protection Unit (MPU) which can be used to improve
the reliability of an embedded system by protecting critical data within the user
application.
The MPU allows separating processing tasks by disallowing access to each other's data,
disabling access to memory regions, allowing memory regions to be defined as read-only
and detecting unexpected memory accesses that could potentially break the system.

NXP Semiconductors LPC55S1x/LPC551x
32-bit ARM Cortex-M33 microcontroller
The MPU separates the memory into distinct regions and implements protection by
preventing disallowed accesses. The MPU supports up to eight regions each of which can
be divided into eight subregions. Accesses to memory locations that are not defined in the
MPU regions, or not permitted by the region setting, will cause the Memory Management
Fault exception to take place.
7.5 Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller (NVIC) for Cortex-M33
The NVIC is an integral part of the Cortex-M33. The tight coupling to the CPU allows for
low interrupt latency and efficient processing of late arriving interrupts.
7.5.1 Features
Controls system exceptions and peripheral interrupts.
60 vectored interrupts.
Eight programmable interrupt priority levels, with hardware priority level masking.
Relocatable vector table using Vector Table Offset Register (VTOR).
Non-Maskable Interrupt (NMI).
Software interrupt generation.
7.5.2 Interrupt sources
Each peripheral device has one interrupt line connected to the NVIC but may have several
interrupt flags.
7.6 System Tick timer (SysTick)
The ARM Cortex-M33 core include a system tick timer (SysTick) that is intended to
generate a dedicated SYSTICK exception. The clock source for the SysTick can be the
system clock or the SYSTICK clock.
7.7 On-chip static RAM
The LPC55S1x/LPC551x support up to 96 KB SRAM with separate bus master access for
higher throughput and individual power control for low-power operation.
7.8 On-chip flash
The LPC55S1x/LPC551x supports up to 256 kB of on-chip flash memory. The last 17
pages (12 KB) are reserved on the 256 KB flash devices resulting in 244 KB internal flash
memory.
7.9 On-chip ROM
The on-chip ROM contains the bootloader and the following features:
Booting of images from on-chip flash.
Supports CRC32 image integrity checking.
Supports flash programming through In System Programming (ISP) commands over
following interfaces: USB0/1 interfaces using HID Class device, UART interface
(Flexcomm 0) with auto baud, SPI slave interfaces (Flexcomm 3 or 8) using mode 3
(CPOL = 1 and CPHA = 1), and I2C slave interface (Flexcomm 1)

7.10 Protected Flash Region (PFR)
The protected flash region is available to configure secure boot, debug authentication,
read UUID, store PUF in key store area, and user defined fields available for specific data
storage.
7.11 Memory mapping
7.12 AHB multilayer matrix
The LPC55S1x/LPC551x uses a multi-layer AHB matrix to connect the CPU buses and
other bus masters to peripherals in a flexible manner that optimizes performance by
allowing peripherals that are on different slave ports of the matrix to be accessed
simultaneously by different bus masters. The device block diagram in Figure 3 shows
details of the available matrix connections.
7.13 Memory Protection Unit (MPU)
CPU has a memory protection unit (MPU) that provides fine grain memory control,
enabling applications to implement security privilege levels, separating code, data and
stack on a task-by-task basis. Such requirements are critical in many embedded
applications.
The MPU register interface is located on the CPU private peripheral bus and is described
in detail in Ref 1 “Cortex-M33 DEBUG”
7.14 TrustZone and system mapping on this device
The implementation of ARM TrustZone for CPU involves using address bit 28 to divide the
address space into potential secure and non-secure regions. Address bit 28 is not
decoded in memory access hardware, so each physical location appears in two places on
whatever bus they are located on. Other hardware determines which kinds of accesses
(including non-secure callable) are actually allowed for any particular address.
Table 5 shows the overall mapping of the code and data buses for secure and non-secure
accesses to various device resources.
Remark: In the peripheral description chapters of this manual, only the native
(non-secure) base address is noted, secure base addresses can be found in this chapter
or created by setting bit 28 in the address as needed.
[1] The size shown for peripherals spaces indicates the space allocated in the memory map, not the actual
space used by the peripheral or memory.
[2] Selected areas of secure regions may be marked as non-secure callable.

NXP Semiconductors LPC55S1x/LPC551x
32-bit ARM Cortex-M33 microcontroller
7.19 RAM configuration
Table 9 describes the RAM configuration for the LPC55S2x/LPC552x.
7.20 System control
7.20.1 Clock sources
The LPC55S1x/LPC551x supports 2 external and 3 internal clock sources:
Internal Free Running Oscillator (FRO). This oscillator provides a selectable 96 MHz
output, and a 12 MHz output (divided down from the selected higher frequency) that
can be used as a system clock. The FRO is trimmed to +/- 2% accuracy over the
entire voltage and -40 C to 105 C. For devices with date code 2044 (yyww) and
onwards, the FRO is trimmed to +/- 1% accuracy over the entire voltage and 0 C to 85
C. The FRO 12 MHz oscillator provides the default clock at reset and provides a clean
system clock shortly after the supply pins reach operating voltage.
32 kHz Internal Free Running Oscillator FRO. The FRO is trimmed to +/- 2% accuracy
over the entire voltage and temperature range.
Internal low power oscillator (FRO 1 MHz). The FRO is trimmed to +/- 15% accuracy
over the entire voltage and temperature range.
Crystal oscillator with an operating frequency of 1 MHz to 25 MHz. Option for external
clock input (bypass mode) for clock frequencies of up to 25 MHz
Crystal oscillator with 32.768 kHz operating frequency.
Each crystal oscillator has one embedded capacitor bank, where each can be used as
an integrated load capacitor for the crystal oscillators. Using APIs, the capacitor banks
on each crystal pin can tune the frequency for crystals with a Capacitive Load (CL)
leading to conserving board space and reducing costs. See: Section 13 “Application
information.
7.20.2 PLL (PLL0 and PLL1)
PLL0 and PLL1 allows CPU operation up to the maximum CPU rate without the need for a
high-frequency external clock. PLL0 and PLL1 can run from the internal FRO 12 MHz
output, the external oscillator, internal FRO 1 MHz output, or the 32.768 kHz RTC
oscillator.
The system PLL accepts an input clock frequency in the range of 2 kHz - 150 MHz. The
input frequency is multiplied up to a high frequency with a Current Controlled Oscillator
(CCO). The PLL can be enabled or disabled by software.
7.20.3 Clock generation
The system control block facilitates the clock generation. Many clocking variations are
possible. Figure 5 gives an overview of potential clock options. Table 10 describes signals
on the clocking diagram. The maximum clock frequency is 150 MHz.

NXP Semiconductors LPC55S1x/LPC551x
32-bit ARM Cortex-M33 microcontroller
Remark: The indicated clock multiplexers shown in Figure 5 are synchronized. In order to
operate, the currently selected clock must be running, and the clock to be switched to
must also be running. This is so that the multiplexer can gracefully switch between the two
clocks without glitches. Other clock multiplexers are not synchronized. The output divider
can be stopped and restarted gracefully during switching if a glitch-free output is needed.
The low-power oscillator provides a frequency in the range of 1 MHz. The accuracy of this
clock is limited to +/- 15% over temperature, voltage, and silicon processing variations
after trimming made during assembly. To determine the actual watchdog oscillator output,
use the frequency measure block.
The part contains one system PLL that can be configured to use a number of clock inputs
and produce an output clock in the range of 1.2 MHz up to the maximum chip frequency,
and can be used to run most on-chip functions. The output of the PLL can be monitored
through the CLKOUT pin.

NXP Semiconductors LPC55S1x/LPC551x
32-bit ARM Cortex-M33 microcontroller
7.20.4 Brownout detection
The LPC55S1x/LPC551x includes one Brown-out detector to monitor the voltage of VBAT.
If the voltage falls below one of the selected voltages, the BOD asserts an interrupt to the
NVIC or issues a reset.
7.21 Power control
The LPC55S1x/LPC551x support a variety of power control features. In Active mode,
when the chip is running, power and clocks to selected peripherals can be adjusted for
power consumption. In addition, there are four special modes of processor power
reduction with different peripherals running: sleep mode, deep-sleep mode, power-down
mode, and deep power-down mode which can be activated by the power mode configure
API.
7.21.1 Sleep mode
In sleep mode, the system clock to the CPU is stopped and execution of instructions is
suspended until either a reset or interrupt occurs. Peripheral functions, if selected to be
clocked can continue operation during sleep mode and may generate interrupts to cause
the processor to resume execution. Sleep mode eliminates dynamic power used by the
processor itself, memory systems and related controllers, internal buses, and unused
peripherals.
7.21.2 Deep-sleep mode
In deep-sleep mode, the flash is powered down. The system clock to the CPU is stopped
and if not configured, the peripherals receives no clocks. Through the power profiles API,
selected peripherals such as USB0, USB1, Flexcomm interfaces 0 to 7 (SPI, I2C, USART,
I2S), Flexcomm interface 8 (High Speed SPI), Micro-tick, WWDT, RTC, OSTimer,
Standard Timers, comparator, and BOD can be left running in deep-sleep mode. Clock
sources such as FRO 12 MHz, FRO 32 kHz, FRO 1 MHz, the 32.768 kHz RTC clock, and
the external oscillator can be enabled or disabled via software.
The LPC55S1x/LPC551x can wake up from deep-sleep mode via a reset, digital pins
selected as inputs to the pin interrupt block and group interrupt block, OS Timer, Standard
Timers, Micro-tick, RTC alarm, a watchdog timer interrupt/reset, BOD interrupt/reset, an
interrupt from the USB0, USB1, SPI, I2C, I2S, USART, comparator, and PLU. Some
peripherals can have DMA service during deep-sleep mode without waking up entire
device.
In deep-sleep mode, all SRAM, logic state, and registers maintain their internal states. All
SRAM instances that are not configured to enter in ‘retention state’ will stay in active state.
Deep-sleep mode allows for very low quiescent power and fast wake-up options.
7.21.3 Power-down mode
In power-down mode, nearly all on-chip power consumption is turned off by shutting down
the internal DC-DC converter. The flash is powered down. The system clock to the CPU is
stopped and if not configured, the peripherals receives no clocks. Through the power
profiles API, selected peripherals such as Flexcomm interfaces 3 (SPI, I2C, USART, I2S),
RTC, OS Timer, and comparator can be left running in power-down mode. Clock sources
such as FRO 32 kHz, and the 32.768 kHz RTC clock can be enabled or disabled via
software.

Product data sheet Rev. 1.5 — 25 May 2021 55 of 128
NXP Semiconductors LPC55S1x/LPC551x
32-bit ARM Cortex-M33 microcontroller
The LPC55S1x/LPC551x can wake up from power-down mode via a reset, digital pins
selected as inputs to the group interrupt block, OS Timer, RTC alarm, an interrupt from the
Flexcomm Interface 3 (SPI, I2C, I2S, USART), and comparator.
In power-down mode, the CPU processor state is retained to allow resumption of code
execution when a wake-up event occurs.
All SRAM, logic state, and registers maintain their internal states. All SRAM instances that
are not configured to enter in ‘retention state’ will enter in ‘shutdown’ state.
7.21.4 Deep power-down mode
In deep power-down mode, power is shut off to the entire chip except for the RTC power
domain, the RESET pin, 4 Wake-up pins, and the OT Timer if enabled. Clock sources
such as FRO 32 kHz, and the 32.768 kHz RTC clock can be enabled or disabled via
software. The LPC55S1x/LPC551x can wake up from deep power-down mode via the
RESET pin, the RTC alarm, four special wake-up pins, or without an external signal, by
using the time-out of the OS Timer. The ALARM1HZ flag in RTC control register
generates an RTC wake-up interrupt request, which can wake up the part. SRAM can
maintain their internal states. All SRAM instances that are not configured to enter in
‘retention state’ will enter in ‘shutdown’ state. In deep power-down mode all functional pins
are in tri-state.
7.22 General Purpose I/O (GPIO)
The LPC55S1x/LPC551x provide GPIO ports 0 and 1 with a total of 64 GPIO pins.
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 current level
of a port pin can be read back no matter what peripheral is selected for that pin.
See Table 3 “Pin description for the default state on reset.
7.22.1 Features
Accelerated GPIO functions:
GPIO registers are located on the AHB 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.
Bit-level set, clear, and toggle registers allow a single instruction set, clear or toggle of
any number of bits in one port.
Direction control of individual bits.
All I/O default to inputs after reset.
All GPIO pins can be selected to create an edge or level-sensitive GPIO interrupt
request.
Two GPIO group interrupts can be triggered by a combination of any pin or pins to
reflect two distinct interrupt patterns.

NXP Semiconductors LPC55S1x/LPC551x
32-bit ARM Cortex-M33 microcontroller
The grouped interrupts can wake up the part from sleep, deep-sleep, and power-down
modes.
7.23 Pin interrupt/pattern engine
The pin interrupt block configures up to eight pins from all digital pins for providing eight
external interrupts connected to the NVIC. The pattern match engine can be used in
conjunction with software to create complex state machines based on pin inputs. Any
digital pin, independent of the function selected through the switch matrix can be
configured through the SYSCON block as an input to the pin interrupt or pattern match
engine. The registers that control the pin interrupt or pattern match engine are located on
the I/O+ bus for fast single-cycle access.
7.23.1 Features
Pin interrupts:
Up to eight pins can be selected from all GPIO pins on ports 0 and 1 as
edge-sensitive or level-sensitive interrupt requests. Each request creates a
separate interrupt in the NVIC.
Edge-sensitive interrupt pins can interrupt on rising or falling edges or both.
Level-sensitive interrupt pins can be HIGH-active or LOW-active.
Level-sensitive interrupt pins can be HIGH-active or LOW-active.
Pin interrupts can wake up the device from sleep mode, and deep-sleep mode.
Pattern match engine:
Up to eight pins can be selected from all digital pins on ports 0 and 1 to contribute
to a boolean expression. The boolean expression consists of specified levels
and/or transitions on various combinations of these pins.
Each bit slice minterm (product term) comprising of the specified boolean
expression can generate its own, dedicated interrupt request.
Any occurrence of a pattern match can also be programmed to generate an RXEV
notification to the CPU. The RXEV signal can be connected to a pin.
Pattern match can be used in conjunction with software to create complex state
machines based on pin inputs.
Pattern match engine facilities wake-up only from active and sleep modes.

7.24.3.5 I2S-bus interface
The I2S bus provides a standard communication interface for streaming data transfer
applications such as digital audio or data collection. The I2S bus specification defines a
3-wire serial bus with one data, one clock, and one word select/frame trigger signal,
providing single or dual (mono or stereo) audio data transfer in addition to other
configurations. Each Flexcomm Interface (0 to 5) implements one I2S channel pair and
each Flexcomm Interface (6 to 7) implement four I2S channel pairs.
The I2S interface within one Flexcomm Interface provides one channel pair that can be
configured as a master or a slave. Other channel pairs, if present, always operate as
slaves. All of the channel pairs within one Flexcomm Interface share one set of I2S
signals, and are configured together for either transmit or receive operation, using the
same mode, same data configuration, and frame configuration. All such channel pairs can
participate in a Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) arrangement. For cases requiring an
MCLK input and/or output, this is handled outside of the I2S block in the system level
clocking scheme.
Features
A Flexcomm Interface can implement one or more I2S channel pairs, the first of which
could be a master or a slave, and the rest would be slaves. All channel pairs are
configured together for either transmit or receive and other shared attributes.
Flexcomm interfaces 0 to 5 each provide one channel pair of I2S function. Other
channel pairs, if present, always operate as slaves.
Configurable data size for all channels within one Flexcomm Interface, from 4 bits to
32 bits. Each channel pair can also be configured independently to act as a single
channel (mono as opposed to stereo operation).
All channel pairs within one Flexcomm Interface share a single bit clock (SCK) and
word select/frame trigger (WS), and data line (SDA).
Data for all I2S traffic within one Flexcomm Interface uses the Flexcomm FIFO. The
FIFO depth is 8 entries.
Left justified and right justified data modes.

The SCTimer/PWM is a flexible timer module capable of creating complex PWM
waveforms and performing other advanced timing and control operations with minimal or
no CPU intervention.
The SCTimer/PWM can operate as a single 32-bit counter or as two independent, 16-bit
counters in uni-directional or bi-directional mode. It supports a selection of match registers
against which the count value can be compared, and capture registers where the current
count value can be recorded when some pre-defined condition is detected.
The SCTimer/PWM module supports multiple separate events that can be defined by the
user based on some combination of parameters including a match on one of the match
registers, and/or a transition on one of the SCTimer/PWM inputs or outputs, the direction
of count, and other factors.
Every action that the SCTimer/PWM block can perform occurs in direct response to one of
these user-defined events without any software overhead. Any event can be enabled to:
Start, stop, or halt the counter.
Limit the counter which means to clear the counter in unidirectional mode or change
its direction in bi-directional mode.
Set, clear, or toggle any SCTimer/PWM output.

NXP Semiconductors LPC55S1x/LPC551x
32-bit ARM Cortex-M33 microcontroller
7.29.3 Temperature sensor
The ADC has a dedicated input channel for an on-chip temperature sensor. It is mapped
on channel 26.
7.30 Security Features
The security system on LPC55S1x/LPC551x has a set of hardware blocks and ROM code
to implement the security features of the device. The hardware consists of an AES engine,
a Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA) engine, a Random Number Generator (RNG), a PRINCE
engine for real-time flash encryption/decryption, and a key storage block that keys from an
SRAM based PUF (Physically Unclonable Function). All components of the system can be
accessed by the processor or the DMA engine to encrypt or decrypt data and for hashing.
The ROM is responsible for secure boot in addition to providing support for various
security functions.
7.30.1 AES engine
The LPC55S1x/LPC551x devices provide an on-chip hardware AES encryption and
decryption engine to protect the image content and to accelerate processing for data
encryption or decryption, data integrity, and proof of origin. Data can be encrypted or
decrypted by the AES engine using a key from the PUF or a software supplied key. The
AES engine supports 128 bit, 192 bit, or 256 bit keys for encryption and decryption
operations.
7.30.1.1 Features
Encryption and decryption of data.
Secure storage of AES key that cannot be read.
Supports 128 bit, 192 bit or 256 bit key in Electronic Code Book (ECB) mode, Cipher
Block Chaining (CBC) mode, and Counter (CTR) mode.
Supports 128-bit key in ICB (Indexed Code Book) mode, that offers protection against
side-channel attacks.
Compliant with the FIPS (Federal Information Processing Standard) Publication 197,
Advanced Encryption Standard (AES).
It may use the processor, DMA, or AHB Master for data movement. AHB Master may
only be used to load data, DMA may be used to read-out results. DMA based result
reading is a “trigger”, so the application must set the size correctly.
7.30.2 HASH engine
The LPC55S1x/LPC551x devices provide on-chip Hash support to perform SHA-1 and
SHA-2 with 256-bit digest (SHA-256). Hashing is a way to reduce arbitrarily large
messages or code images to a relatively small fixed size “unique” number called a digest.
The SHA-1 Hash produces a 160 bit digest (five words), and the SHA-256 hash produces
a 256 bit digest (eight words).
7.30.2.1 Features
Performs SHA-1 and SHA-2(256) based hashing.
Used with HMAC to support a challenge/response or to validate a message.

32-bit ARM Cortex-M33 microcontroller
7.30.3 PUF
The PUF controller on the LPC55S1x/LPC551x provides generation and secure storage
for keys without storing the key. The PUF controller provides a unique key per device and
exists in that device based on the unique characteristics of PUF SRAM. Instead of storing
the key, a Key Code is generated, which in combination with the digital fingerprint is used
to reconstruct keys that are routed to the AES engine, for use by software, and by
PRINCE engine. PUF keys have a dedicated path to the AES engine and PRINCE
engine. There is no other mechanism by which keys can be observed.
7.30.3.1 Features
Key strength of 256-bits.
The PUF constructs 256-bit strength device unique PUF root key using the digital
fingerprint of a device derived from SRAM and error correction data called Activation
Code (AC). The Activation Code (AC) is generated during enrollment process. The
Activation Code (AC) should be stored on external non-volatile memory device in the
system.
Generation, storage, and reconstruction of keys.
Key sizes from 64 bits to 4096 bits.
PUF controller allows storage of keys, generated externally or on chip, of sizes 64 bits
to 4096 bits.
PUF controller combines keys with digital fingerprint of device to generate key codes.
These key codes should be provided to the controller to reconstruct original key. They
can be stored on external non-volatile memory device in the system.
Key output via dedicated hardware interface or through register interface.
PUF controller allows to assign a 4-bit index value for each key while generating key
codes. Keys that are assigned index value zero are output through HW bus,
accessible to AES and PRINCE engines only. Keys with non-zero index are available
through APB register interface.
32-bit APB interface.
7.30.4 Random Number Generator
The True Random Number Generators (TRNG) module is a hardware accelerator module
that generate 256-bit entropy. The purpose of the module is to generate high quality,
cryptographically secure, random data.
Random number generators are used for data masking, cryptographic, modeling and
simulation application which employ keys that must be generated in a random fashion
LPC55S1x/LPC551x embeds a hardware IP that - combined with appropriate software
and the availability of a stochastic model - can be used to generate
7.30.5 PRINCE On-the-fly encryption/decryption
LPC55S1x/LPC551x devices offer support for on-the-fly encryption of date being written
to flash and decryption of encrypted on-chip flash data during read using the PRINCE
encryption algorithm. Compared to AES, PRINCE is fast as it can decrypt and encrypt in
one clock cycle. Also, it does not need extra SRAM to copy data. It operates on a

32-bit ARM Cortex-M33 microcontroller
block-size of 64 bits with an 128-bit key. This functionality is useful for asset protection,
such as securing application code, securing stored keys and enabling secure flash
update.
7.30.6 Universally Unique Identifier (UUID)
Each LPC55S1x/LPC551x device consists of a unique 128-bit IETF RFC4122 compliant
non-sequential UUID. It can be read from the protected flash region (register location
0x0009_FC70 onwards).
7.30.7 Device Identifier Composition Engine (DICE)
The LPC55S1x/LPC551x (secure part) supports Device Identifier Composition Engine
(DICE) to provide Composite Device Identifier (CDI). The CDI value is available at
SYSCON for consumption after boot completion. It is recommended to overwrite these
registers once ephemeral key-pairs are generated using this value.
7.30.8 Code Watchdog
The Code Watchdog provides two main mechanisms for detecting side-channel attacks,
or execution of unexpected instruction sequences
7.31 Debug Mailbox and Authentication
The Debugger Mailbox (DM) AP offers a register based mailbox accessible by both CPUs
and the device debug port DP of the MCU. This port is always enabled and external world
can send and receive data to/from ROM. This port is used to implement NXP Debug
Authentication Protocol.
BootROM implements debug mailbox protocol to interact with tools over SWD interface.
LPC55S1x/LPC551x offers a debug authentication protocol as a tool to authenticate the
debugger and grant it access to the device. The debug authentication scheme on
LPC55S1x/LPC551x is a challenge-response scheme and assures that debugger in
possession of required debug credentials only can successfully authenticate over debug
interface and access restricted parts of the device. This protocol provides a mechanism
for a device and its debug interface to authenticate the identity and credentials of the
debugger (or user). Access right settings can be pre-configured and gets loaded into
register above upon successful debug authentication. Until debug authentication process
is successfully completed, secure part of the device is non-accessible to the debugger.
7.32 Emulation and debugging
Debug and trace functions are integrated into the Arm Cortex-M33 Serial wire debug and
trace function (Serial Wire Output) are supported. Eight breakpoints and four watch points
are supported. In addition, JTAG boundary scan mode is provided.
The Arm SYSREQ reset is supported and causes the processor to reset the peripherals,
execute the boot code, restart from address 0x0000 0000, and break at the user entry
point.
The SWD pins are multiplexed with other digital I/O pins. On reset, the pins assume the
SWD functions by default.

9. Thermal characteristics
The average chip junction temperature, Tj (C), can be calculated using the following
equation:
(1)
Tamb = ambient temperature (C),
Rth(j-a) = the package junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (C/W)
PD = sum of internal and I/O power dissipation
The internal power dissipation is the product of IDD and VDD. The I/O power dissipation of
the I/O pins is often small and many times can be negligible. However it can be significant
in some applications.

10.3.1 Peripheral Power Consumption
Table 21 shows the typical peripheral power consumption measured on a typical sample
at Tamb = 25 °C and VBAT_PMU = VBAT_DCDC = VDD = 3.3 V. The supply current per
peripheral is measured as the difference in supply current between the peripheral block
enabled and the peripheral block disabled using AHB clock control and PDRUNCFG
registers. All other blocks are disabled and no code accessing the peripheral is executed.
The supply currents are shown for system clock frequencies of 12 MHz, and
96 MHz.

[1] Guaranteed by design. Not tested in production.
[2] Parameters are valid over operating temperature range unless otherwise specified. See the I2C-bus specification UM10204 for details.
[3] tHD;DAT is the data hold time that is measured from the falling edge of SCL; applies to data in transmission and the acknowledge.
[4] A device must internally provide a hold time of at least 300 ns for the SDA signal (with respect to the VIH(min) of the SCL signal) to
bridge the undefined region of the falling edge of SCL.
[5] Cb = total capacitance of one bus line in pF. If mixed with Hs-mode devices, faster fall times are allowed.
[6] The maximum tf for the SDA and SCL bus lines is specified at 300 ns. The maximum fall time for the SDA output stage tf is specified at
250 ns. This allows series protection resistors to be connected in between the SDA and the SCL pins and the SDA/SCL bus lines
without exceeding the maximum specified tf.
[7] In Fast-mode Plus, fall time is specified the same for both output stage and bus timing. If series resistors are used, designers should
allow for this when considering bus timing.
[8] The maximum tHD;DAT could be 3.45 s and 0.9 s for Standard-mode and Fast-mode but must be less than the maximum of tVD;DAT or
tVD;ACK by a transition time. This maximum must only be met if the device does not stretch the LOW period (tLOW) of the SCL signal. If
the clock stretches the SCL, the data must be valid by the set-up time before it releases the clock.
[9] tSU;DAT is the data set-up time that is measured with respect to the rising edge of SCL; applies to data in transmission and the
acknowledge.
[10] A Fast-mode I2C-bus device can be used in a Standard-mode I2C-bus system but the requirement tSU;DAT = 250 ns must then be met.
This will automatically be the case if the device does not stretch the LOW period of the SCL signal. If such a device does stretch the
LOW period of the SCL signal, it must output the next data bit to the SDA line tr(max) + tSU;DAT = 1000 + 250 = 1250 ns (according to the
Standard-mode I2C-bus specification) before the SCL line is released. Also the acknowledge timing must meet this set-up time.

[2] The values listed are typical values and are not guaranteed. Based on characterization. Not tested in
production. If VREFP is less than VDDA, then voltage inputs greater than VREFP and less than VDDA are
allowed but result in a full scale conversion result.

[4] Differential linear results assume offset 0.2% from VREFL and 0.2% from VREFH
[5] The differential linearity error (ED) is the difference between the actual step width and the ideal step width.
[6] 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.
[7] 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 VDDA =VREFP = 3.0 V.
[8] The full-scale error voltage or gain error (EG) is the difference between the straight-line fitting the actual
transfer curve after removing offset error, and the straight line which fits the ideal transfer curve.
[9] Input data is 1kHz sine wave, ADC conversion clock 24 MHz, Power Select = 3, Average setting = 1, STS =
3.
[10] Input data is 1kHz sine wave, ADC conversion clock 48 MHz, Power Select = 3, Average setting = 1, STS =
3.
[11] For 16-bit mode:
Sampling frequency = 48 MHz / (20.5 (conversion cycles) + sample cycles (STS bit in CMDH register)).
So for minimum sample time of 3 ADCK cycles, the ADC conversion time = 48 /(20.5 + 3) = 2.0.
For 12-bit mode:
Sampling frequency = 48 MHz / (17.5 (conversion cycles) + sample cycles (STS bit in CMDH register)).
So for minimum sample time of 3 ADCK cycles, the ADC conversion time = 48 /(17.5 + 3) = 2.3.
[12] Value of ADC_CFG[PUDLY] * 4 * ADCclk must be > tADCSTUP.

13. Application information
13.1 I/O power consumption
I/O pins are contributing to the overall dynamic and static power consumption of the part.
If pins are configured as digital inputs, a static current can flow depending on the voltage
level at the pin and the setting of the internal pull-up and pull-down resistors. This current
can be calculated using the parameters Rpu and Rpd given in Tabl e 2 2 for a given input
voltage VI. For pins set to output, the current drive strength is given by parameters IOH and
IOL in Ta ble 22, but for calculating the total static current, you also need to consider any
external loads connected to the pin.
I/O pins also contribute to the dynamic power consumption when the pins are switching
because the VDD supply provides the current to charge and discharge all internal and
external capacitive loads connected to the pin in addition to powering the I/O circuitry.
The contribution from the I/O switching current Isw can be calculated as follows for any
given switching frequency fsw if the external capacitive load (Cext) is known (see Tabl e 2 2
for the internal I/O capacitance):
Isw = VDD x fsw x (Cio + Cext)
13.2 Crystal oscillator
The crystal oscillator has embedded capacitor bank where it can be used as an
integrated load capacitor for the crystal oscillators. The capacitor banks on each crystal
pin can tune the frequency for crystals with a Capacitive Load (CL) between 6 to 10pF
(IEC equivalent).
Simple APIs to configure the Capacitor Banks based on the crystal Capacitive Load (CL)
and measured PCB parasitic capacitances on XIN and XOUT pins.
In the crystal oscillator circuit, only the crystal (XTAL) needs to be connected with the
option to connect capacitances CX1 and CX2 on XTAL32M_P and XTAL32M_N pins.
Depending upon the computation of the required Capacitance Load, there is no need to
add some capacitance on PCB if computation is less than 20 pF (10 pF equivalent IEC),
and if computation is greater than 20 pF (10 pF equivalent IEC), then additional
capacitance is on PCB required. See Figure 19 and refer to the “Cap Bank API” chapter in
the user manual.
In bypass mode, an external clock (maximum frequency of up to 24 MHz) can also be
connected to XTAL32M_P if XTAL32M_N is left open. External [0 – VH] square signal can
be applied on the XTAL32M_P pin from 0 V to 850 mV.

For best results, it is very critical to select a matching crystal for the on-chip oscillator.
Load capacitance (CL), series resistance (RS), and drive level (DL) are important
parameters to consider while choosing the crystal.
13.2.1 Crystal Printed Circuit Board (PCB) design guidelines
Connect the crystal and external load capacitors on the PCB as close as possible to
the oscillator input and output pins of the chip.
The length of traces in the oscillation circuit should be as short as possible and must
not cross other signal lines.
Ensure that the load capacitors have a common ground plane.
Loops must be made as small as possible to minimize the noise coupled in through
the PCB and to keep the parasitics as small as possible.
Lay out the ground (GND) pattern under crystal unit.
Do not lay out other signal lines under crystal unit for multi-layered PCB.
13.3 RTC oscillator
