| Summary: | This report presents complete development cycle of a Cortex‐M3 based
embedded system. It starts from researching for a suitable processing core
chip followed by design and implementation of the hardware. Subsequently,
it goes through the testing and debugging phases, and finally developing of
software to run on the board. During the course of this project ARM’s
Cortex processor – LPC1768 – was used for the development purpose. It
will be referred to as the “LPC1768 development board” from this point
onwards.
The LPC1768 development board was built based on the following phases of
the development cycle:
1. A schematic design based from a developed LPC1768 controller board
2. A four‐layer Printed Circuit Board (PCB) design of the LPC1768
development board
3. Soldering of required components and testing of the PCB
4. Choosing the appropriate firmware for downloading programs into the
board
5. Testing the functionalities of the various modules on the board |
