LPCXpresso Base Board Embedded Artists

DESCRIPTION

RETIRED PRODUCT – We’ve stopped stocking this product or it has been retired by the manufacturer and is no longer for sale. This page remains available for its resources and as a source of potential interest.

Direct from the snowy shores of Sweden, the LPCXpresso Base board provides the ideal platform to get started QUICKLY with LPC processor experiments and prototyping. The Base board can also be used together with the following:

• LPC1769 LPCXpresso Board

FEATURES

• Socket for LPCXpresso and mbed module
• 50 pin expansion dual row pin list connector (male, 100mil pitch) for simple connection external designs and to a logic analyzer
• 50 pin expansion dual row header connector (female, 100mil pitch) for simple connection to breadboard
• Battery powering (small coin battery)
• USB interface
• Reset pushbutton

Digital IO:

• RGB-LED (can be PWM controlled)
• 5-key joystick switch
• 2 pushbuttons, one for activating bootloader
• Rotary switch with quadrature encoding (timer capture)
• Temperature sensor with PWM output (timer capture)

Analog IO:

• Trimming potentiometer input (analog input)
• PWM to analog LP-filtering (PWM output and analog input)
• Speaker output (PWM output)
• Oscilloscope probe inout stage

Serial bus – SPI:

• Shift register driving 7-segment LED
• SD/MMC memory card interface
• Dataflash SPI-NOR flash

Serial bus – I2C:

• PCA9532 port expander connected to 16 LEDs
• 8kbit E2PROM
• MMA7455L accelerometer with I2C interface
• Light sensor

Serial bus – I2C/SPI shared:

• SC16IS752 – I2C/SPI to 2xUART bridge; connected to RS232 full-modem interface and one expansion UART
• 96×64 pixel white OLED (alternative I2C/SPI interface)

Serial bus – UART:

• USB-to-serial bridge, with automatic ISP activation
• RS422/485 interface
• Interface socket for XBee RF-module

Specific mbed module support:

• CAN bus interface (can be simulated with LPCXpresso)
• Ethernet RJ45 connector with integrated magnetic

Dimensions: 150 x 180 mm

Power: via USB (+5V)
