Features

Embedded Artists' LPC2468 OEM Board (mounted on the OEM base Board Basic) lets you get up-and-running quickly with NXP's ARM7TDMI LPC24xx microcontroller series in general and with LPC2468 in particular. The board is only 66x70 mm and is perfect for running uClinux with large on-board RAM and FLASH. All processor signals are available on two 96 pos connector for easy expansion.
The board can be used in OEM applications, as well as for education purposes, experiment, and prototype projects.

uClinux Distribution
The board is shipped with a uClinux distribution based on Linux 2.6 and using u-Boot 1.1.6 for booting.
There is a support page packed with information how to get started with uClinux, working with drivers and developing uClinux applications.
A CD-ROM is included with a complete Linux development environment for uClinux development, based on VmWare Player™ technology - you can develop for uClinux on your Windows PC!

LPC2468 OEM Board Features

OEM Base Board Basic Features

Software

In order to ease the development of and experiments with application programs our boards are delivered with a lot of software/sample applications.

• Pre-emptive Real-Time Operating System (RTOS) - the RTOS is delivered as a binary package together with some sample applications that illustrate different functionalities of the RTOS.
  Can be used for non-commercial applications.
• Sample applications specifically for the uClinux prototype board.
• Analog to Digital Converter - Demonstrates how to convert the analog inputs into digital values (for processors with built-in ADC).
• Code Protection - Demonstrates how to enable the code protection functionality (for processors with built-in code protection functionality).
• In-Application Programming - Demonstrates how to invoke the IAP functionality from an application program (to program the internal FLASH memory).
• UART - Demonstrates how to use the UART in an irq and a polled implementation (i.e., with or without using interrupts). Includes a general print number function.
• Polled I2C - Demonstrates how to use the I2C as a master in polled mode (i.e., without interrupts). Reading and writing to an i2c-eeprom is used as sample application.
• SPI - Demonstrates how to use the SPI as a master in both a polled and interrupt implementation.
• SWI - Demonstrates how to use SWI interrupt (software interrupts) and how to create a customer SWI handler.
• FIQ Handler - Demonstrates how to create a customer FIQ handler.
• IRQ Handler in SYS Mode - Demonstrates how to create an IRQ handler that execute interrupt handlers in SYSTEM mode, instead of IRQ mode.
• PWM Examples - Demonstrates how to vary the frequency of a PWM signal and how to vary the duty cycle of a PWM signal.
• Timer Interrupt - Demonstrates how to use a timer (in interrupt mode) as system time counter and how to register timer callback functions.
• Timer Delay - Demonstrates how a timer can be used to implement exact (polled and irq) delays.
• Power Save Mode - Demonstrates how the idle mode can be used to save power.
• Power Down Mode - Demonstrates how the power down mode (lowest power mode) can be used to save power.
• Real-Time Clock - Demonstrates how the real-time clock can be used.
• Watchdog - Demonstrates how the watchdog can be used.

QuickStart Build Environment
In order to be able to build the sample applications (and your own applications) you get access to Embedded Artists' build environment. It is based on GCC v3.4.3 + newlib as the compiler.

Advantages

Low Cost

The LPC2468 OEM Board is very low cost and can be used for prototyping/development as well as for OEM production.

QVGA TFT Color LCD (Add-on Module), optionally with TouchScreen

If you would like to add this board, make sure you have a "QVGA1" (regular) or "QVGA2" (w/ TouchScreen) in the order number during checkout (select above).

This display is used as an add-on module to the OEM Base Board. The LPC2468 (which is used as main processor on this board) can access the display via an 8-bit parallel interface, 16-bit parallel interface or an 8-bit serial (SPI-like) interface.

A small graphical library for the display, with basic drawing operations, can be downloaded from Embedded Artists' support page after purchase of the display.
