1. MYARM7 FEATURES

MYARM7 is the evolution board for the LPC2148.LPC2148 is

16-bit/32-bit ARM7TDMI-S microcontroller in a tiny

LQFP64 package has 64 pins, on chip SRAM of 32kB. USB

RAM of 2 kB, On-chip FLASH of 512kB, has 14no 10-bit ADC

channels and 1 no 10-bit DAC channels.

The development board has the following features

2. POWER OPTIONS:

 Input power with control ON/OFF switch.

 Require 12v DC with 1 amp current or also can provide

5v DC to run the board for low power ratings applications.

 Two 5 v dc slots and one 3.3v dc slot for additional Power

for external devices which has low current ratings and also

for common ground problems.

3.IO PORTS:

 Generally LPC2148 has IO port pins of 45 pins and are divided into
8 bit pin out mode with pull up of 10 k provided.

3.1 PORT_0:

MYARM-7 board has total 29 port_0 I/O pins. In which three 8 bit

pin mode and the remaining five pins left as 5 bit pin has no pull up. As

the pin configuration can be available in LPC2148 user manual.

3.1 PORT_1:

 MYARM-7 board has total 16 port_1 I/O pins. In which two 8 bit

pin mode with pull up. As the pin configuration can be available in

LPC2148 user manual.

 One set of 8 bit pins of P1 are connected to LCD 8 bit data and

RS,RW,EN connected to other 3 pins of 8 bit pins of P1.

 While programming the LCD we should not use the LCD data and

control pins.
 Some pins are given to switches and buttons which we discuss later

in ON BOARD I/O DEVICES OPTIONS.

4. SERIAL PORTS
Introducing a fractional baud rate generator for both UARTs,

enabling these microcontrollers to achieve standard baud rates such

as 115200 with any crystal frequency above 2 MHz’s The LPC2148

each contain two UARTs. In addition to standard transmit and receive

data lines, the LPC2148 UART1 also provide a full modem control

handshake interface.

 MY ARM-7 has two com ports which UART0 and UART1 with DB9

female connectors.

 UARTS (0&1) are configured with jumpers.

4.1 COM_0.
 UART_0 has TTL pins P0.0 (TX_0), P0.1 (RX_0) has the additional

feature which is dumping the .hex code to the LPC2148.

4.2COM_1
 UART1 has TTL pins P0.8 (TX_1), P0.9 (RX_1) also provides a full

modem control handshake interface as this doesn’t support the

.hex code dumping.

5.ADC OPTIONS
 The LPC2148 contain two analog to digital converters. These

converters are single 10-bit successive approximation analog to

digital converters. While ADC0 has six channels, ADC1 has eight

channels. Therefore, total number of available ADC inputs for

LPC2148 is 14.

 MY ARM-7 board has the 2 ADC in put one is POT (10 k) and

other is LM 35 (TEMPERATURE sensor).

5.1 ADC_0_2
 To ADC_0 the channel2 to which pin P0.29 POT is

connected(POT: ADC_0_2)

 POT Meter has the variable voltage is from 0 to 3.3 volts as per

the standard specification.

5.2 ADC_0_3
  To ADC_0 the channel3 to which pin P0.30 temperature sensor

is connected (LM 35:ADC_0_3).

 The LM35 which is of plastic package has the variation from -50

to 150 degrees centigrade

6.ON BOARD I/O DEVICES

6.1 BUZZER:

MYARM -7 has the only buzzer on the board it is

connected to the port_0

 It was connected to the P0.10 and it is active low.

6.2 LCD:
MY ARM-7 has LCD which is of 2 lined and 16 character liquid crystal

display connected to the Port_1

 One set of 8 bit pins from P1.18to P1.25 given to LCD 8 bit data

and P1.16,P1.17, are given to RS, EN respectively.

 P1.18 to p1.21 to LCD 4 bit data and P1.16,P1.17, are given to RS, EN

respectively.

 While programming the LCD we should not use the LCD data and

control pins.
7. SOFTWARE PROGRAMMIG DEVLOPMENT
As there are many tools are available for the development of
the application program.keilUversion 3 is mostly used
following are the steps for developing the project

Step1: opening Keil icon present on the desktop.

Step2: open the NEW Uversion project which is in the project option in the tool
bar.

Step3: save the project with the required name and click save button
 Step:4 select the device from NXP options the window which comes after
saving the project.

Step 5: select the LPC 2148 from the NXP options

Step 6: click yes in the startup code of LPC 2148 window

Step 7: select the new file from the file options to write the C code
Step 8: a new text file will open which we have to write the following code

Step 9: write the code require for ur applications

Step 10:save the text file as .C file

Step 11: Add the saved .C file p by right clicking the Source Group Option1 and u
will get drop down window in that select Add Files to Group
Step 12: select the saved .c file from the window which is showing to add the file
by clicking the add tab.

Step 13: thus .C file is added to the Source Group is clearly seen
Step 14: press the icon that shows Translate Current File after pressing it will
shows errors if present which is compiling the code

Step 15: press the icon that shows Rebuilt Target which proceeds for the Linking
if the .C file.
Step 16:Re-built All Target files for complete process of assembling->Compiling -
>linking-> generating .hex file

Step 17: press the start/stop debug icon for debugging of the code which
written. Following are debugging windows press F11 for step by step debug

Window:1
Window2

Generating hex file from keil

slect the Options For The Target which is left side of Target1 for creating
the hex file using the keil.select the creat the HEX file and click the ok
button and follow the step14,15,16
8. DUMPING .HEX FILE.
In MY ARM-7 development board programmed through serial port using ‘Flash
Magic’. ‘Flash Magic’ is a freeware windows utility used dump the hex file format
onto the MYARM-7 board. Flash Magic can be downloaded from here
http://www.flashmagictool.com/. If your PC does not have a serial port; use a USB
to serial converter to download the hex file using the Flash Magic utility.

Step1: open the Flash magic short cut icon.

Step2: complete window will open for the flash magic

Step 3: select the type of the device ur using to dump the file .select the device
(LPC 2148) and press ok button
STEP4: select the com port which the serial cable connected to the system to
development board

Step6: select the baud rate of 9600 which is the standard and preferred
STEP8: Select the oscillator (MHz) as the crystal that present on the MY ARM7
development board

Step9: click on the browse options for selecting the .hex file used to dump on
the development board
Step9: .Hex file dumping process is clearly seen in the at right side bottom of
the window

Step 10:“Finished” is seen at the bottom after the dumping is completed
