Features in Tiva series MCUs

Hello,

My requirement is an MCU with 8 UARTs, USB & graphic controller features. If such controller doesn't exist, is there any solution in TI?

Thanks & Regards

    You'll have to check to see if 8 UARTs appear but otherwise, newly introduced TM4C129X appears best suited due to its in-built LCD Controller & external bus access.  (bus - to manage your required display frame buffer)

    A development kit which includes a color Lcd was (is) available.  Note that the LCD Controller version forces the present incarnation of that MCU into a BGA package.

    Thanks for the reply,

    I have a few more queries:

    1. Is this part available in India

    2. What screen resolution can I expect with this controller?

    Regards,

    And do you mean I cannot use all the UARTs at once?

    Thanks & Regards,

    I'm simple vendor client - just like you - thus you can use normal means to determine availability, pricing, support etc.

    As stated - TM4C129X data manual (or even data summary) should quickly reveal, "number of UARTs."

    Unclear as to your real meaning of, "UART use - at the same time."  In non-uDMA usage - your program code most usually will access one UART at a time.  Through use of the uDMA the UART tasks may run, "in the background" - yet I am uncertain as to the number of uDMA channels this new MCU provides. 

    Some investigation effort falls to you, as you - by far - best know (and benefit) from those needs/objectives...
