MCB2929

Quick Start Guide

This 

Quick Start Guide

 introduces the MCB2929 board 

for the 

LPC2929

 microcontroller device from NXP.  It 

shows how to install the Keil software development tools for 
ARM-based devices and run a variety of example projects.

To install the evaluation version of the Keil Microcontroller 

Development Kit (MDK-ARM):

n

Insert the CD-ROM into your PC. 

If the opening screen does not appear, run SETUP from the 
CD root directory:

n

Click Install Evaluation Software, then select  ARM 
Development Tools 

n

Follow the setup program instructions 

The SETUP program installs the Keil 

m

Vision4 IDE, Debugger 

and Simulator; and the ARM Compilation Tools.

Installing the Software

Connecting to your Target

Using ULINK2

Using ULINK-ME

The target is powered via your PC, through its USB port.  The Keil 
ULINK family of adapters connect the USB port of your PC to 
the JTAG port of your target board allowing you to download and 
debug embedded programs running on your target hardware.

ULINK2 and ULINK-ME support standard JTAG and Real-Time 
Agent for on-the-fly target debugging.

The ULINK2 Adapter connects to the MCB2929 using the 20-pin 
ribbon cable.

The ULINK-ME Adapter connects directly to the MCB2929 20-pin 
JTAG connector.
