2.0 LPC1830-Xplorer Overview 2.1 Introduction The NGX LPC1830-Xplorer is a compact and versatile evaluation platform for the NXP's Cortex-M3 based MCUS. NGX's evaluation platforms are generally not tied up to any particular debugger or compiler/IDE. However it is not practical to test and ensure that the solution would work out of box with all the available debuggers and compilers/IDE. -

Page 12: Lpc1830-Xplorer Verification
Quick Start Guide: LPC4330-Xplorer 3.0 LPC1830-Xplorer verification NGX's evaluation platforms ship with a factory-programmed test firmware that verifies all the on-board peripherals. It is highly recommended that you verify the board, before you start programming. Also this exercise helps you get acclimatized with the board quickly. -
Page 13: Powering The Board
However for the power up reset (USB power cycle) the controller boots up fine. Power up the board over USB1 port and we are all set to verify the LPC1830-Xplorer peripherals. Before we get to the verification we need to install the Virtual COM port drivers needed for the LPC1830-Xplorer (USB1 port) to appear as a Virtual COM port (Used for viewing the debug messages on serial emulation tool). - Page 14 Quick Start Guide: LPC4330-Xplorer Step 1: Connect USB1 to the computer, Open device manager, you can find “NXP LPC18xx VCOM” new device listed under ‘Other devices’. Fig.12 Step 2: Right click on the “NXP LPC18xx VCOM” and then left click on ‘Update Driver Software’. Fig.13 Page | 14...

Quick Start Guide: LPC4330-Xplorer 3.3.1 LEDs Test setup and verification: As soon as the Xplorer is turned ON or reset; the test LEDs go ON & OFF for a couple of times, this simple test validates the LEDs. The Xplorer has one Green LED and one Blue LED. These LEDs are also connected to the outputs of the SCT lines. - Page 20 Quick Start Guide: LPC4330-Xplorer Step 2: Select ‘USB1 Vcom Port’ (COM12) and click on OK.

Page 22: User Input Switch
Quick Start Guide: LPC4330-Xplorer 3.3.3 User Input Switch Test setup and verification: Once the VCOM drivers are installed the Xplorer waits for the User Input Switch to be pressed. Only after detecting a user button (SW2) press the test firmware proceeds with validating other peripherals. This synchronization is necessary to ensure that the debug messages on the VCOM port can be viewed from the start of the test. -
