Hello All,
I am new to ARM. I am currently using LPC2378 (ARM7TDMI-S) processor on MCB2300 Keil Eval Board. I want to display A/D value on LCD. Kindly guide how to proceed step by step using C language. I don't have any exposure in Assembly language. However I am considerably good at C.
Regards
If you are considerably good at C, the question is: What did you think about the sample code Keil supplies for their own evaluation boards with LPC23xx processors? NXP also have a large code bundle for the processor, even if I don't much like the code quality of it.
Hi,
Thanks for the earliest response. The problem that I am facing is regarding the code development part. Suppose, I need to glow all the 8 LEDs on the board. Being a beginner, how must I proceed. What are the things that I need to keep in mind.
Again let me also tell you one thing that I successfully ran a code, where I could glow them in various pattern, but that was possible only with the help of my colleague.
Now that I know how to work on LEDs, but when I moved to display A/D values on LCD I am again not able to jot down what are the aspects I need to keep in mind.
Kindly guide in layman terms.
regards
But have you looked at the sample programs? They do make use of the ADC. And they do make use of the display on Keil's evaluation board. The code to blink a LED is the same even when you join in code for reading ADC or presenting information on a LCD.
It's just a question of integrating multiple modules into the same software. The only think to consider is the timing - when to call what function and how long to wait and how the time consumed for one function affects the available time to call other functions.
So what have you done? Have you downloaded the schematics for your board? Have you downloaded the user manual for the processor? Have you looked at the Keil sample code? Have you downloaded and looked at the NXP code bundle? Have you tried to write some own code? Where are you stuck?
actually what I did till date that I went through all the example code, but since those code is generalized, and integrates everything, that hinders the flow of understanding them. Since I am totally new to this field, I am facing a little bit trouble.
Can you suggest some easy mode of understanding the example program, so that I can develop some more complex application like interfacing accelerometer.
