Getting Started with LPCXpresso54608 & MCUXpresso is pretty straight forward, but we want to make the process even easier.  So we created a simple guide to walk you through the getting started process,       LPCXpresso54608: Out of Box & Getting Started Introduction LPC5460x MCU Family part numbering & feature summary table (highlighted in yellow are the first of many parts to be released). If it wasn't already clear, LPCXpresso54608 is the superset development board for our LPC5460x MCU Family. NXP.com Board Page Board Part Number (OM13092) Board User Manual (UM11035) Board Schematics Key features of the LPCXpresso54608 development board, 272x480 color LCD with capacitive touch screen On-board, high-speed USB, Link2 debug probe with CMSIS-DAP and SEGGER J-Link protocol options UART and SPI port bridging from LPC546xx target to USB via the on-board debug probe Support for external debug probe 3 x user LEDs, plus Reset, ISP (3) and user buttons Multiple Expansion options, including Arduino UNO and PMod Built-in power consumption measurement for target LPC546xx MCU 128Mb Micron MT25QL128 Quad-SPI flash 8MB Micron MT48LC8M16A2B4 SDRAM Knowles SPH0641LM4H digital microphone Full size SD/MMC card slot NXP MMA8652FCR1 accelerometer Stereo audio codec with line in/out High and full speed USB ports with micro A/B connector for host or device functionality 10/100Mbps Ethernet (RJ45 connector)

First, download the LPCXpresso54608 board User Manual.  After scanning the document, let's get started! Plug in LPCXpresso54608 (as shown below).  You will see the pre-loaded, Out of Box demo, which features Draupner TouchGFX.  A screen shot is shown below, Once you've explored the pre-loaded demo, you will likely want to learn more.   For this you will need to configure and build an MCUXpresso Software Development Kit (SDK) for your LPCXpresso54608 development board. Register or use your login credentials to sign in and download software from NXP. You can create a configuration for the LPCXpresso54608 in one of two ways: By typing 'LPCXpresso54608' or selecting boards>LPC>LPCXpresso54608 Once you have selected the board you will be presented with two options: 'Select Configuration' or 'Specify Additional Configuration Settings'. (It is recommended that you name the configuration something that specifies the settings as this will help identify multiple configurations.)   Note: By default the SDK Builder will choose IAR as the default toolchain for Windows.  For this tutorial we will use Windows as our Development Host OS.  If this is not the desired toolchain or OS please 'Select 'Specify Additional Configuration Settings' The following window will be presented, which allows you to download an SDK for IAR, Keil or Both (selecting 'All toolchains'.).  During this stage, you can also specify any necessary middleware for your download.  You can select or deselect these under the 'Select Optional Middleware' Select 'Go to SDK builder' once you have made your choices. Note:You may be prompted to update your info before you are allowed to download the package. If this happens select the link in the red at the top to resolve any issues. Once the information is updated you can click on the 'Overview' at the top and reselect 'SDK Builder' to return to the screen you were on. You have the opportunity to rename your file one last time before you hit download now. Once you select 'Download Now' you will be presented with a license agreement and once agreed to the download will start. Once you have downloaded the packaged .zip use your favorite utility to extract to a known location --> Continue here if IAR is your selected default toolchain. --> Continue here if KEIL is your selected default toolchain. --> Continue here if MCUXpresso is your selected default toolchain (coming March 2017!)
