Starting with LPC2148

Hello all!

Just got my LPC2148 from OLIMEX : <LINK_TEXT text="604UU … s board?
">http://www.olimex.com/dev/index.html//url

Now i connected the square USB with my usb-computer-gate and my mouse went going in a square (on my screen). This could maby be a demo that is programmed in the chip, but i do think i would need another connector for this device.

Has anyone got some experience with this board?

It is great!

I am also studying ARM7 now. But I am not an expert in ARM7 yet. :smiley:

What board is this? header board? or development board?

The mouse going round looks like a demo program indeed (USB HID).

I’m using the serial port + the Philips/NXP flash utility for programming my board (embedded artists LPC2148 quickstart board).

it is the headerboard as you can see if you visit the link I’ve send.

My co-student has managed to program it with the Philips tool LPC2000 and some other connecter to use USB! - Now on search to a usefull IDE (looking for minGW or arm kit from Keil - free on net)

I’ll be sharing the latest news so this can be a helpfull topic for others :slight_smile:

ciao,

John

Hi Guys,

I also started with this development board.

I have stuggled for a while to get a working config file for

the ARM-USB-OCD from olimex, now I have one which seems to run stable.

Next I wanted to try a flashing led program, but no success yet,

I can download it but when I press the reset button, it will not run,

at least, i do not see a flashing led.

If you succeed in running something on the board, please let me know how to do it. Im probably missing steps here.

The questions I still haven’t an answer of:

  • What kind of file should be gennerated (Hex, elf, bin?)

  • How do I exactly download and run it from flash.

  • How do I debug it?

I would prefer to start with a simple make file and just GDB or

GDB/Insight, eclipse is too complex to start with.

Regards,

Bert
