Спросите, а при чем тут он и я? Я отвечу: вчера пришел пакет формата А4, в котором лежало письмо из прошлого мне и маленький вкладыш:World's Smallest 32-Bit ARM Microcontroller
Unleashing unprecedented computing power in 5mm2 of PCB area, the LPC1102 is targeted at applications requiring an ultra-miniature board footprint. As the newest member of the highly successful LPC11xx microcontroller series, the addition of the LPC1102 delivers the same key features of low power, high performance, and high value, while adding the new dimension of miniaturization. The LPC1102, with 32KB of flash and 8KB of RAM on-chip, is available in Wafer Level Chip Scale Packaging (WL-CSP) with dimensions of 2.17mm x 2.32mm, a thickness of 0.65mm, and a pitch of 0.5mm.
Key product features include a 5-channel 10-bit ADC, one UART, one SPI, two 32-bit and two 16-bit timers, and one 24-bit system timer. SWD debugging and programming with four breakpoints and two watchpoints are also included. A total of eleven I/O functions also double as general purpose input and output GPIO for maximum flexibility. Offering very low power consumption with active mode current as low as 130μA/MHz, the LPC1102 features an internal IRC oscillator, accurate to ±1 percent over the industrial temperature and voltage range. It can also be clocked with an external source.
NXP's LPC11xx series is the lowest-priced 32-bit MCU solution in the market, bringing higher value and ease of use than existing 8-/16-bit microcontrollers through unprecedented performance, simplicity, low power, and more importantly, dramatic reductions in code size for all 8-/16-bit applications.

Пиндюлька в BGA корпусе размерами 2.5мм на 2.5мм и 16ю пятачками (матрица 4х4). Ну не свинство ли? Одно утешает - халява, которую я впрочем не заказывал. От NXP реквестировал и получил только демо-платку LPCXpresso. Ее получил еще зимой.

Придется придумать, как припаять этот LPC1102 на переходничок.
PS И LPCXpresso и STM32 имеют на борту фирменный SWD программатор-отладчик, только у LPCXpresso он может быть отломан от основной платы и использоваться полностью автономно.
