LPC54018 IoT module
1. Introduction
The LPC54018 IoT module, developed by NXP in partnership with Embedded Artists, is
self-contained, high performance, IEEE802.11 enabled microcontroller module for the
development of products utilizing Amazon FreeRTOS or other IoT platforms. The module
can be used as a standalone or plugged into a motherboard or baseboard for rapid
product development and prototyping.
The IoT module baseboard (part number OM40006) is jointly developed by NXP and
Embedded Artists. It provides several on-board peripherals for rapid prototyping and
evaluation. The on-board peripherals include SDRAM, LCD with touchscreen, audio
CODEC, digital microphone, Ethernet PHY, micro SD card slot and Arduino UNO
expansion connectors. The baseboard also includes an on-board debug probe. See
