The LPC1768 Development Board LPC1768 CORTEX M3 based microcontroller. The LPC1768 microcontroller has 512KB of internal flash and 64KB SRAM. Following are the salient features of the board.
- Power supply: DC 9V with power LED
- On-board linear regulators generate +3.3V/500mA and +5v/500mA from power supply.
- USB connector (as alternate power source)
- Connectors:
Extension headers for all microcontroller pins. RS232 connectors (2)
PS/2 connector. JTAG connector.
SD/MMC connector.
USB A-Type USB B-Type connector with Link-LED.
- Other Peripherals:
- 16×2 LCD with back light control.
- Configurable for manual and automatic program download (ISP) via serial port. User Interrupt, ADC, RTC.
2: System Requirements:
- Windows XP & Win 7
- Serial or Parallel port
- USB port
3: Starting off & connecting the hardware:
After unpacking the LPC1768 board connect a DC supply of 9V/1A to the DC jack to power the board. The LPC1768board can also be powered through USB.
4: Programming LPC1768 Board:
LPC1768 Board can be programmed through serial port UART “0” using “Flash Magic” is a freeware windows utility used to download the hex file format onto the LPC1768 Board. If your PC does not have a serial port; use an original USB to serial converter to download the hex file
- Programming LPC1768 Board through ISP
The LPC1768 Board can be programmed through ISP Manual Mode
To program in Manual mode you need a half serial cable (which just has TX, RX and GND wire connected). And connect the half serial cable to UART0 and power the board.
- Open Flash Magic.
- Select Device as LPC1768
- Select the appropriate com port (See your “device manager” to find out the com port number)
- Select the Baud Rate in between 9600 and 38400
- Interface: None (ISP)
To make the board enter programming mode:
- Hold down ISP and RESET Buttons, then release RESET first and finally ISP
- Click on Start Programming
- Program uploaded successfully
- Click the Rest Button on the Board. That’s it, your hex file is on the board
