Unleash the true power of the LandTiger

Unleash the true meaning of the LandTiger.

scotlandyARM - A multi-peripheral - secret spies - Star Wars related project for LandTiger LPC 1768 development board

The project has been developed while attending Computer Architectures course at MS in Computer Engineering, Politecnico di Torino, year 2017/2018.

The task was to choose and use some peripherals of the LandTiger Development board, equipped with a NXP LPC 1768 chip. We needed many of them, so you will find plenty of juice debugging this project!

The peripherals and functions used within the project:

• Speaker tone() with PWM
• Print lines and entire wall of texts with Display
• Manage timer and IRQ handlers
• Get robust input from the joystick
• Exchange data online through Ethernet Communication

For more informations about the project idea, libraries used and implemented, and source code, feel free to check our video on YouTube :)

Installation

• Download the project and load it into Keil uVision4 (http://www.keil.com/)

It may be required to make sure that Keil uVision correctly manages the paths.

Usage

• Flash the board through uVision
• Enjoy :)

NOTE: Make sure that you have correctly set the Python server on a machine listening on the Remote IP defined in the source! Firewalls could block the communication between the board and the machine.
