The LPC1114FN28 is a breadboard friendly MCU that most hobbyists will like and a great chip to get started in ARM embedded development.

It is sold in a DIP package and has a Bootloader installed, so programing it is very easy, requiring virtually zero supporting components.

Unlike most 32 bit MCUs this one can be easily placed in a breadboard, PCB or Perfboard without having to use any special tools or equipment.

Overall features: 32 bits, 50MHz, ARM Cortex M0 family, DIP package, Built-in serial Bootloader, 1.8-3.6v, up to 50 MHz, 8KB SRAM, SPI, I2C, USART, 10 bit ADC, 16 & 32 bit timers, ISP, Internal Oscillator and many more.

Plugging it in for programming

You don't need a fancy development kit to test your code: a simple breadboard and a USB to TTL adapter will be enough as only 5 pins are necessary for this task

Pins 21 and 22 should be connected to your power source, usually a voltage regulator, possibly a LM117, or your USB to TTL adapter 3.3V pin.

Pins 16 and 17 should be connected to your UART pins TX and RX respectively; RX on the MCU should be connected to TX on the UART and TX to RX.

Pin 24 should be connected to GND. When the MCU boots, this pin is tested and, if it is connected to GND, the program in flash memory will run. Connecting it to GND [Vdd?] makes the chip run the boot-loader, allowing a program to be written to the MCU internal Flash memory.

Example program

Download and unzip the file vilaca.eu.lpc1114_102_led_blink.

This file is an example program that can be uploaded to the LPC1114 using the previous circuit.

It is a very simple program that uses PWM to blink a led on pin 18 every second. The led stays ON for exactly 1/2 second.

Once you upload it to the LPC1114 you can switch to the circuit bellow to run the program.

You can also download the full Keil project for this example.

Uploading the program with Flash magic

Flash magic is a free and easy to use tool that can upload program files to a large variety of microcontrollers.

Make sure you select the correct COM port where the USB to TTL UART is connected in your computer. In the screenshot above COM 5 is selected.

Flash Magic can only handle files in the .hex format and can be downloaded from: http://www.flashmagictool.com/

If you're using Linux there's a very good article on how to program this MCU using open tools at http://www.meatandnetworking.com.

Simple circuit for blinking led
The following is a simple circuit to make a led blink.

Since the MCU already has an internal oscillator very few parts are needed

Pins 18 is connected to a generic Led and resistor. I used a 330 Ω resistor for this setup.

Pins 22 and 23 should be connected to your power source.

This setup is enough to run a program blinking the LED and you can adapt it to your needs.

In this example pin 18 was selected because it is one of the timer output pins. In the sample program we set timer to do PWM with a cycle length of around 1HZ, that is one blink per second.
