Kit Overview

The ARM7TDMI based MCB2470MCB2470 Evaluation Board allows you to generate and test application programs for the NXP (formerly Philips) LPC24xx microcontroller family. With this hands-on process, you can determine the hardware and software requirements for current and future product development.

The MCB2470MCB2470 Evaluation Board ships with the LPC2478LPC2478 device that is a superset of several other device variants of the LPC24xx microcontroller series. The MCB2470MCB2470 Board contains all the hardware components required in a single-chip LPC24xx system. The NXP LPC2478LPC2478 is an ARM7TDMI based high-performance 32-bit RISC Microcontroller with Thumb extensions, 512KB on-chip Flash ROM with In-System Programming (ISP) and In-Application Programming (IAP), 98KB RAM, CPU clock up to 72 MHz, On-chip crystal oscillator, On-chip 4MHz RC oscillator, On-chip PLL. Enhanced Vectored Interrupt Controller, Ethernet 10/100 MAC with DMA, External Memory Controller for static and dynamic memories, USB 2.0 Full Speed Device Controller and Host/OTG Controller, CAN 2.0B with two channels, LCD Controller (STN and TFT), General purpose DMA controller, Four UARTs, one with full modem interface, Three I2C serial interfaces, Three SPI/SSP serial interfaces, I2S interface, SD/MMC memory-card interface, 10-bit ADC with 8 channels, 10-bit DAC, Four 32-bit timers with capture/compare, Watchdog Timer, PWM unit for three-phase motor control, Real Time Clock with optional battery backup, Brown-out detect circuit, General purpose I/O pins.

The MCB2470MCB2470 Evaluation Board also includes a 320x240 TFT LCD QVGA color display module with a built-in touchscreen. The MCB2470 Evaluation Board includes the MDK-ARMMDK-ARM Evaluation Tools. These tools help you get started writing programs and testing the microcontroller and its capabilities. Sample applications that run on the MCB2470 are included.

Key Applications: Portable electronics applications, Point-of-Sale (POS) applications, Industrial control, Medical systems.
