I'm working on the development of a double bldc driver, and I think the LPC1549 is up to the job. However, I find it hard to get enough information and and good examples. Maybe, I look in the wrong direction? Another thing is I try LPCInit and LPCXpert but none of these seem to work on my Mac OSX Sierra. Are there other configuration tools available? I also cannot find footprints for eagle or kicad. Are there problems with the LPC15xx, that nobody wants too use these? I found so little support for it... maybe someone can point me to the right tools or repositories that I can't find ?????... Can someone help?

Hi Francisco,

About the examples, you could take a look to the following application note  that describes an implementation of brushless DC motor control using the SCTimer/PWM of the LPC15xx:

http://www.nxp.com/documents/application_note/AN11523.zip 

And you can also use the LPCOpen package for the LPCXpresso LPC1549 board as reference for your application:

LPCOpen Software for LPC15XX|NXP 

It comes with many peripheral example projects that you can use.

Hope it helps!

Hi Francisco,

We put circuit symbols on the individual part pages. The easiest way to find them is to type in the part number of interest in the search box, then click on the link that comes up, something link this:

...click on the link next to Device Part (i.e. LPC1549JBD64). On the page that comes up next click on the Software & Tools tab, then you will see all the resources for that part. You can use a filter selection on the left to narrow down to the Circuit Symbols if needed:
