LPC54018 IoT module
The module may also be mounted on to an OM40006 baseboard from Embedded Artists.
This baseboard includes an on-board LPC-Link2 debug probe, which can be programmed
to support either CMSIS-DAP or SEGGER J-Link protocols - all tool chains mentioned
above will support either of these protocols (note that CMSIS-DAP is required to use SWO
trace/profiling and data watch features with MCUXpresso IDE).
3.1 Attaching the debug probe and powering up (baseboard not used)
Observing appropriate anti-static measures, connect the debug probe, ensure that pin 1 of
the debug probe cable is aligned to the lower right pin of connector J7, as shown in
Figure 3
. Note that in the figure, the red cable strand indicates pin 1.
Power the module by connecting to it to a power supply or PC via J8. Note that when the
802.11 module is transmitting, the current drawn may be several hundred milliamperes.
So, a power supply capable of delivering more than 500 mA is recommended.
3.2 Powering up (OM40006 Baseboard used)
Observing appropriate anti-static measures, carefully align the module expansion
connectors with those on the baseboard. Apply a gentle pressure until the module is
heard to click into the place. If the module does not click into the place easily, do not apply
excessive force, and check if the connectors are aligned correctly.
Refer to the baseboard manual for powering options and configuration to use either the
on-board debug probe or an external probe.
