MCB1700 User's Guide

Features

The connectors on the MCB1700 evaluation board provide easy access to many of the on-chip peripherals.

  • USB 2.0 Full Speed Interface
    Standard USB connectors for USB Device, USB-OTG, USB Host and UART via USB on the MCB1700 board for applications requiring USB communications.
  • Dual Serial Ports
    Standard DB9 connectors are on the MCB1700 for both of the LPC1700's serial ports. Your application may use either of these ports.
  • Dual CAN Ports
    Standard DB9 connectors are on the MCB1700 board for applications requiring CAN communications. Your application may use either or both of these ports, or they may be disabled with a configuration jumper.
  • 100/10M Ethernet Port
    A standard RJ45 connector on the MCB1700 board connects to an on-board Ethernet transceiver for applications requiring Ethernet communications.
  • LCD Display
    A detachable, 240x320 TFT, color LCD display. You may use this graphic display device to show real-time debug and program status messages.
  • MicroSD Card Connector
    A MicroSD Card connector for developing applications requiring access to MicroSD Cards. 
  • Joystick
    A 5-position joystick.  Your application may use this to control port pin input.
  • LF Amplifier
    An LF Amplifier on the MCB1700 connects the D/A output of the LPC1700 device to a speaker. You may use this LF Amplifier to generate sound.
  • Analog Voltage Control for ADC Input
    An adjustable analog voltage source is on the MCB1700 board for testing the Analog to Digital output feature of the LPC1700. A configuration jumper enables and disables this feature.
  • JTAG and Cortex/ETM Download and Debug
    The MCB1700 board incorporates both a JTAG interface and a Cortex Debug + ETM interface.  When coupled with the ULINK2 USB-JTAG adapter, the Serial Wire JTAG interface allows flash programming and debugging.  With the ULINKPro adapter, the Cortex Debug/ETM interface allows flash programming and instruction trace debugging.
