NXP LPC546 ARM Cortex-M Development Board For Next-Generation IoT Applications

Posted by Industry News on Apr 27th 2017

The LPCXpresso54608 Development Board by NXP Semiconductors provides a powerful and flexible embedded development system for the NXP LPC546 ARM® Cortex®-M family of MCUs. The LPCXpresso54608 Development Board contains the target LPC54608 device with an on-board, CMSIS-DAP / SEGGER J-Link compatible debug probe. The on-board probe is compatible with the MCUXpresso IDE and other toolchains such as those from Keil and IAR.

The LPCXpresso54608 Development Board is equipped with a standard 10-pin header for the use with 3rd party debug probes. In addition to the standard LPCXpresso V3 features, the board also includes a complete set of peripheral interfaces which enable embedded system developers to explore the capabilities of LPC5460x devices.

The LPCXpresso54608 Development Board is pre-loaded with a programming samples demonstrating the Draupner Graphic TouchGFX software.

This book presents the use of a microprocessor-based digital system in our daily life. Its bottom-up approach ensures that all the basic building blocks are covered before the development of a real-life system.

The ultimate goal of the book is to equip students with all the fundamental building blocks as well as their integration, allowing them to implement the applications they have dreamed up with minimum effort.
