Hello,
I am working with a LPC4337-Xplorer board and want to shut down every peripherics to evaluate the power consumption of the cores only.
But I did not succeed in unabling the ethernet for example which is automatically powered on.
So can I unabled the peripherics by software (mostly the ethernet and the codec) and how do I do this?
(I've already tryed to reset via the GPIO0[4] and to use the Chip_ENET_DeInit function, but neither works)

Thank you for your answers

Hi,
There is in fact a port for LPCOpen v2.12 for our LPC4357 OEM board / Developer's Kit (http://www.embeddedartists.com/products/kits/lpc4357_kit.php).
It can be downloaded from our support site after purchase.

Kind Regards,

Hello Floreste,

the MCB4357 board provides dedicated jumpers in the power supply signals VDDIO / VDDREG / VDDA of the LPC4357. This allows you to measure each of these currents with a shunt and a multimeter, e.g. using an integrator circuit (simple RC circuit). This board is fully supported in our software packages in LPCOpen. However, it#s not really a cheap board.

There is an LPC4357 board from Embedded Artists which is pretty good, but not actively supported by our LPCOpen package.

There are several other boards where I didn't check if power measurements on the LPC core have been foreseen or not:

For example:  element14 (Farnell), WaveShare (Chinese company), Diolan (Israel)

Thank you for your answer,
though, do you have an idea how to put peripherics in power save mode?
Also, which other board could suit better my plan to evaluate only the LPC consumption?

Regards,
Floreste

Disabling a peripheral device is not really possible. There might be a standby or power save mode for the Ethernet PHY or the audio CODEC which you can set by software, but they will not be switched off.
If you really need to evaluate the power consumption of the LPC4300 in detail, then you need to use another board which offers this feature.
Or you disassemble the PHY and the CODEC   8-)
