Hardware requirements

  • Mini/micro USB cable

  • LPCXpresso55S16 board

  • Personal Computer

Board settings

Output signal		Board location
SCT0_OUT2    		J12-12

The jumper setting: Default jumpers configuration does not work, you will need to add JP20 and JP21 (JP22 optional for ADC use)

Prepare the Demo

  1. Connect a micro USB cable between the PC host and the CMSIS DAP USB port (J1) on the board

  2. Open a serial terminal with the following settings (See Appendix A in Getting started guide for description how to determine serial port number):

    • 115200 baud rate

    • 8 data bits

    • No parity

    • One stop bit

    • No flow control

  3. Download the program to the target board.

  4. Either press the reset button on your board or launch the debugger in your IDE to begin running the demo.

Running the demo

The log below shows example output of the SCTimer driver PWM demo in the terminal window:

SCTimer example to output center-aligned PWM signal
You will see a change in LED brightness if an LED is connected to the SCTimer output pin
If no LED is connected to the pin, then probe the signal using an oscilloscope

You’ll see PWM signals with changing duty cycle on J12_12 using an oscilloscope.
