ARM Cortex-M

Misc resources for ARM Cortex-M serie

Cortex-M0

• Demo boards list
• LPCXpresso demoboard with LPC1227: OM13008

Cortex-M3

• Demo boards list
• LPCXpresso demoboard with LPC1347: OM13045

Be careful example codes for LPC1343 won't run on LPC1347, use examples from the 13xx 12-bit ADC version:

/usr/local/lpcxpresso_5.1.2_2065/lpcxpresso/Examples/NXP/LPC1000/LPC13xx_12bitADC

If board is messed up, one can force ISP mode to enable flashing a new code by pulling pin P0_1 to GND during reset.

Cortex-M4

• Demo boards list

Relatively small demoboard with Cortex M0 + Cortex M4: OM13027, Product page
It's not a LPCXpresso board but it can be programmed through LPCXpresso LPC-Link

Installation under Linux

I had troubles with the provided /etc/udev/rules.d/85-code-red.rules
Here is mine: (then you need to be member of plugdev group)

On a 64-bit multiarch Debian, I had a few missing packages:

apt-get install gtk2-engines:i386 libcanberra-gtk-module:i386
