Some questions about developing LPC Microcontrollers on MCUXpresso IDE

Hi everyone,

    I'm currently working on development with the NXP LPC1778FET180 chip, and I want to use the 'MCUXpresso' IDE. But during this process: 1. I found that in NXP's official 'SDK Builder,' I can't find the SDK for LPC1778FET180, whereas 'MCUXpresso' shows that it supports this chip. So how can I get the SDK for this chip? 2. If this chip doesn't have a corresponding SDK, I've already generated a bare-metal project through 'MCUXpresso,' but it seems that graphical pin configuration isn't supported. No .mex file is being generated. Is it that this chip doesn't support graphical pin configuration, or am I doing something wrong?

                                                                                                                                    Best wishes

Hello Leo_wong,

I am also struggling to find the SDK. My target MCU is LPC1518JBD64. I have download MCUXpresso ide in VScode and now look for SDK for LPC1518.

It you get to figure this out just let me also know how to get the SDK to start coding for LPC1518.

Hi @leo_wong 

LPC1778FET180 is an older LPC17xx device and is not supported by the modern MCUXpresso SDK Builder.

You can import it from file system.

The absence of a .mex file and graphical Pins/Clocks configuration is expected. These MCUXpresso Config Tools features are primarily available for devices that have MCUXpresso SDK support. LPC1778 projects generally require manual pin and clock configuration or the use of LPCOpen APIs.
