Board Features

LPC2148 Pro Development Board is a powerful development platform based on LPC2148
ARM7TDMI microcontroller with 512K on-chip memory. This board is powered by USB
port and does not need external power supply. It is ideal for developing embedded
applications involving high speed wireless communication (Zigbee / Bluetooth / WiFi), USB
based data logging, real time data monitoring and control, interactive control panels etc. The
on-chip USB controller provides direct high speed interface to a PC/laptop with speeds up to
12Mb/s. The UART boot loader eliminates need of an additional programmer and allows you
to program using serial port. The on board peripherals include SD/MMC card interface,
USB2.0 interface, 4Kbit I2C EEPROM, Xbee wireless module interface, ULN2003 500mA
current sinking driver, L293D DC motor controller, 16X2 character LCD and many more.
The on-chip peripherals and the external hardware on the development board are
interconnected using pin headers and jumpers. The I/O pins on the microcontroller can be
accessed from a 50 pin male header. The board is made from double sided PTH PCB board to
provide extra strength to the connector joints for increased reliability.
Note:
1. Xbee / Bluetooth/ WiFi wireless module and SD/MMC card are not included with the
board and it can be bought separately from Nex Robotics website.
