The BR-LPC1769 development board is based on the LPC1769 ARM Cortex-M3 processor from NXP. Running at speeds of up to 120MHz with generous on-chip flash and RAM this is a very capable microcontroller.

This board is designed as a low cost yet high performance development board which can be easily expanded. The board includes a direct USB link to the processor and a comprehensive set of peripherals available via the dual in-line pin headers.

The direct USB connection allows experimenting and development of USB devices, for example virtual serial port or mass storage devices.

If you are interested in the Ethernet then the BR-LPC1769-Ethernet is the same board with an Ethernet PHY and RJ45 jack fitted.
