LPC4088 Experiment Base Board - User’s Guide Page 7 2 Introduction Thank you for buying Embedded Artists’ LPC4088 Experiment Base Board. The board has been designed to operate together with the LPC4088 QuickStart board, which is based on NXP’s ARM Cortex-M4 LPC4088 microcontroller.
ESD. In general touch as little as possible on the boards in order to minimize the risk of ESD damage. Note that Embedded Artists does not replace boards that have been damaged by ESD. General Handling Care Handle the LPC4088 Experiment Base Board and LPC4088 QuickStart Board with care.
Observe ESD precaution. Other Products from Embedded Artists Embedded Artists have a broad range of LPC based boards that are very low cost and developed for prototyping / development as well as for OEM applications (i.e., for integration). Modifications for OEM applications can be done easily, even for modest production volumes.
