What is EasyARM v6?

This board is a full-featured development environment for NXP ARM7 microcontrollers. It has numerous on-board modules that help you to create your prototype device easily. It comes with mikroBoard for ARM carrying LPC2148.

In-Serial Programming

ARM7 core supports In-Serial programming mode, so you won’t need external programmers.

Connectivity

All microcontroller pins are available through IDC10 port connectors, so you can easily attach other peripherals to your board.

Key Features
Key Benefits

Numerous peripherals

Board has a great set of on-board modules: Serial Flash, Serial RAM, Serial EEPROM, Piezo Buzzer, CAN, MMC/SD card slot, two USB-UARTs, USB connector, RS-232 connector...

mikroBoard flexibility

New mikroBoards for ARM are designed to be small standalone development systems with lot’s of on-board modules. They can be easily integrated in your devices.

Highest quality components

We have put a lot of thoght into the board design to make it beautiful and compact, and we used only the highest quality SMD components for production.

All you need is already here

EasyARM v6 is a development platform that provides you with all necessary means to easily develop and test your code and build your prototype, at a popular price.

mikroBoards are great

After you are finished with development, you can take the mikroBoard for ARM and use it as a standalone device. It is compact and ready to rock!

Easily add extra boards

Development system features IDC10 connectors for all available ports, that are 100% compatible with over 70 additional boards from mikroElektronika.

LPC2148 ARM7 MCU from NXP high-performance 32-bit RISC Microcontroller with Thumb extensions 512KB on-chip Flash ROM and 32KB RAM.

USB connector

USB Connector is used for connecting the board with other devices such as PC using fast USB 2.0 communication

Piezo Buzzer

Piezo buzzer gives you the ability to create audio signalization in your prototype. Buzzer is driven with a transistor circuit that boosts the output signal to appropriate levels.

IDC10 PORT connectors

All microcontroller port pins have been traced to the the appropriate IDC10 PORT connectors. Each port pin can be pulled up or down using the appropriate voltage selection jumper.

Power LED

Specialialized mikroBoard LED indicates that MCU has propper power supply levels.

3.3V Voltage regulator

mikroBoard contains 3.3V voltage regulator circutry that provide stable power supply when board is used as a standalone module.

Power Supply Regulator

On Board Power Supply Regulator provides stable and smooth voltage and current levels to all on-board modules. You can provide wide rande of 9-32V DC or 7-23V AC input power.

Programmer Connector

USB-UART connection for In-System Programming (ISP) is achieved over miniUSB on-board connector.

Reset Circuit

Specialized Reset Circuit ensures safe reset of the microcontroller.

RS-232 connector

Implement standard UART communication with RS-232 voltage levels using high quality RS-232 connector. Neccessary voltage levels are created with MAX3232 chip.

microSD card slot

MMC/SD Card slot allows you to store large amounts of data externally on MMC/SD card using fast SPI communication.

Serial EEPROM Memory

You can store 8x256 bytes of configuration data or other data into on-board 24AA01 Serial EEPROM with I2C interface.

Serial Flash Memory

Store up to 8 Mbit of data in M25P80 Serial Flash Memory with 25 MHz SPI Bus Interface. It suports over 100,000 Erase/Program Cycles per Sector and has over 20 Year Data Retention

Touch Panel Controller

You can use Touch Panel input with your prototype devide using on-board Touch Panel Controller circuitry.

USB connector

USB Connector is used for connecting the board with other devices such as PC using fast USB 2.0 communication.

USB-UART1 connector

Fast on-board FTDI chip with USB connector, allow you to communicate with a PC or other UART devices using USB-UART connection.

USB-UART2 connector

Fast on-board FTDI chip with USB connector, allow you to communicate with a PC or other UART devices using USB-UART connection.

Oscillator circuit

12Mhz oscillator circuit that provides external clock is connected to microcontroller osc pins.

LCD 2x16 connector
