LPC8N04 Development Board

User Manual

Pre-programmed with demo message scrolling / tune playing application (requires 
NFC-enabled phone to use; iOS 11 phones only support limited functionality)

The Board is divided into two parts - the Debug Probe (DP) and Main Processor (MP) 
Sections. The two sections may be snapped apart by scoring the row of holes between 
them using a knife, then applying firm pressure to this region of the board. Once 
separated, the MP board may be used as a standalone target, either powered via a button 
cell or via the P4 expansion connector. The boards can be reconnected by soldering 0.1” 
pitch right angled connectors(not supplied) in the P3/P4 and P5/P6 header locations.

Description

Reference section

P1

Inserting a jumper on P1 holds the LPC11U35 debug probe in reset. 
Install P1 when using an external debug probe.

[4.1]

P2

Inserting a jumper on P2 forces the LPC11U35 debug probe into Device 
Firmware Update (DFU) mode when the board is power cycled, allowing 
its on-board firmware to be updated. 

[4.1]

P3, P4, P5, P6

These connectors provide access to the PIO lines of the LPC8N04, plus 
power and reset.

[5.1]

P7, P8

PIO0_11 and PIO0_10 from the LPC8N04 can be used as SWD pins or 
GPIOs. P7 (for PIO0_11) and P8 (for PIO0_10) are used to determine 
whether those signals are routed to the SWD header and LPC11U35 
debug probe, or to the 3rd and 4th columns of the LED array.

[4]

[7.2]

P9

P9 is use to selected whether PIO0_3 from the LPC8N04 is routed to the 
speaker amplifier input of row 6 of the LED array.
