Embest: EM-LPC1700-66 Evaluation Board

The Embest's EM-LPC1700-66EM-LPC1700-66(LPC1766) evaluation board is based on ARM Cortex-M3 processor from NXP, its operating frequency is up to 100MHz, with 256KB high-speed on-Chip Flash Memory and 64KB RAM, together with a colour QVGA LCD, Ethernet, USB, CAN, SD/MMC card interface, and UARTs. Plenty of example source code (These software examples can be debugged under the popular Keil MDK).   The Cortex-M3 based EM-LPC1700-66EM-LPC1700-66 (LPC1766) Evaluation Board can be used to generate and test application programs for the NXP LPC17xx microcontroller family. The LPC1766FBD100,551LPC1766FBD100,551 ARM Evaluation Board introduces the new NXP LPC1760 family of ARM Cortex-M3 processor-based devices, allows you to create and test working programs for this advanced architecture, it has a wide range of interfaces making it a great starting point for your next Cortex-M3 project. With this hands-on process, you can determine the hardware and software requirements for current and future product development.   The EM-LPC1700-66EM-LPC1700-66 (LPC1766FBD100,551LPC1766FBD100,551) arm Evaluation Board ships with the LPC1766 device that is a superset of several other device variants of the LPC17xx microcontroller series. The LPC1766 Board contains all the hardware components required in a single-chip LPC17xx system.   The EM-LPC1700-66EM-LPC1700-66 (LPC1766) are ARM Cortex-M3 based microcontrollers for embedded applications featuring a high level of integration and low power consumption. The ARM Cortex-M3 is a next generation core that offers system enhancements such as enhanced debug features and a higher level of support block integration.The LPC1766FBD100,551LPC1766FBD100,551 operate at CPU frequencies of up to 100 MHz. The ARM Cortex-M3 CPU incorporates a 3-stage pipeline and uses a Harvard architecture with separate local instruction and data buses as well as a third bus for peripherals. The ARM Cortex-M3 CPU also includes an internal prefetch unit that supports speculative branching.   Key Applications: eMetering, Lighting, Industrial networking, Alarm systemsn, White goods and Motor control.
