µC comparison
AVR
- EEPROM
- can run at 5V
- 12 ADC inputs
- JTAG
- analog comparator
- ADC reference voltage
ARM
- ARM Cortex-M3
- higher frequency/MIPS
- 32bit architecture
LPC1342/43
- only up to 3.6V
- 8 ADC inputs
- hardware divide
- 400kS/s ADC
- integrated HID and MSC device driver
- integrated USB MSC boot loader (needs 12MHz crystal)
- higher active current
- lower deep-sleep current
- requires external LDO
- existing boards

- ARM Cortex-M0
- integrated LDO
- less efficient than the LPC
- very cheap; <= $2.50@1 at Arrow/Nu Horizons
- external crystal required
- slower clock (48MHz)
- more flash, RAM
