LPC1768 Development Board

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
