The source code examples are grouped in subfolders in your Windows Documents\Astrobe-v4.4.0\Examples folder:
NOTE: Additional examples can be found in the LPC2000 Source Code Examples section of the Astrobe Forum.
The general examples should work with little or no modification on any of the supported LPC2xxx targets. Header comments in each of the source code files list the target microcontrollers that the examples were designed for.
The example programs which are shown with screenshots below use the Out library module to generate the text output and send it to UART0. The UART0 socket should be connected to a dumb terminal or terminal emulator running at 38,400 Baud.
| Folder | Filename | Description | |
| General | Blinker.mod |
Blinker Blinks an LED once per second using Timer0. |
|
| General | Info.mod |
System Info Outputs the linker and startup parameters specified for the current application and shows the amount of RAM remaining for use by the program.
|
|
| General | ViewMemory.mod |
ViewMemory Outputs the contents of 256 words of memory starting from address 00000 0000H and then 256 words of memory starting from address 01000 0000H. Each line of output contains the address and the contents of the next 4-word block of data displayed in Hexadecimal format.
|
|
| General | TestTraps.mod |
TestTraps Demonstrates the trapping and display of runtime errors.
|
|
| General |
Extensions.mod Lists.mod |
Extensions Shows how Oberon's Type Extension feature can be used to create and scan a dynamic list of a variety of objects. Lists contains the generic functions to build and traverse a list of objects. Extensions contains definitions for a number of related objects. The examples used are shapes e.g. circles, rectangles etc. The application first builds a list of different shapes and then scans the list displaying the relevant dimensions and area of each shape.

|
| General | ShowTime |
Set and Display the Real Time Clock Prompts for the input of the current time (hours, minutes and seconds) and then displays the updated time every second.
|
|
| General | CalcBaudRate |
Calculate Baud Rate Parameters If you are using a crystal frequency of 14.7456 MHz the standard UART baud rates can be accurately generated. If you are using a crystal operating at other frequencies you can use the library function Serial.InitEx instead of Serial.Init to achieve finer control over the baudrate. The function requires that the target MCU has an extended UART feature, the fractional divider register (FDR). This example program calculates and displays the values of the parameters to be used with Serial.InitEx for a range of crystal frequency and baud rate combinations. The Calculate function included in the example was designed to be efficient enough to be extracted and included in your application if you want to generate the values dynamically.

| General | IAPDemo.mod |
In-Application (IAP) Programming Uses the LPC2000 on-chip In-Application Programming (IAP) functions to perform the following tasks: 1. Display the part identification number 2. Display the boot code version number 3. Compare a range of identical bytes 4. Compare a range of dissimilar bytes

|
| ADC / LED7 |
LED7.mod LED7Seconds.mod LED7ADC.mod |
ADC / 7-Segment LED Examples Led7ADC displays a number in the range 0 to 9 relative to the rotation of a potentiometer connected to an ADC channel. Led7Seconds increments the number displayed every second. Both examples import a utility module Led7.mod which displays a single digit on a 7-segment LED that is connected directly to GPIO pins. |
|
| IRQ |
IRQTimer.mod IRQBlinker.mod |
Interrupts Example Blinks an LED once a second by handling interrupts (IRQ) generated by Timer1. |
|
| IRQ |
FIQTimer.mod FIQBlinker.mod |
Fast Interrupts Example Blinks an LED once a second by handling fast interrupts (FIQ) generated by Timer1. |
|
| IRQ |
IRQFIQ.mod |
IRQ interrupted by an FIQ Timer0 generates IRQs and Timer1 generates FIQs. The IRQ handler stays in an infinite loop which only terminates when it is interrupted by an FIQ. If you need convincing, see what happens when you comment out the statement inIRQ := FALSE;
in FIQTimerHandler.
|
|
| SPI | LedSeconds.mod |
7-Segment LED Counter using SPI Displays 0 - 9 seconds counter on a 7-segment LED connected via an SPI0 bus. |
|
| SPI |
MMC.mod ReadCard.mod |
Reading an SD Card using SPI/MMC Displays the letters and numbers found in the first four blocks of an SD Card that appear to contain text information. The following resulted from reading a newly-formatted 2GB SD card with a FAT file system that had the single file ReadCard.mod in its root folder.
|
|
| I2C |
Temperature.mod |
Reading a temperature sensor via the I2C bus Monitors the current reading of an NS LM75 or TI TMP102 temperature sensor connected as a slave device to the I2C0 bus. The device is interrogated every second and the value is written to output whenever it changes. NOTE: Change the CONST value I2CBUS in the source code to 1 if you want to use it with a sensor on the I2C1 bus of an LPC2103 microcontroller.
|
|
| I2C |
Compass.mod |
Reading a digital compass via the I2C bus Monitors the current reading of a Honeywell HMC6352 digital compass connected as a slave device to the I2C bus. The device is interrogated every second and the value is written to output whenever it changes. NOTE: Change the CONST value I2CBUS in the source code to 1 if you want to use it with a compass on the I2C1 bus instead of the I2C0 bus.

|
| I2C | EEPROM2K.mod |
Reading / writing an EEPROM via the I2C bus Read a string and a counter from a 2kbit EEPROM via the I2C0 or I2C1 bus. If the string doesn't equal "Astrobe" the program has not been run before and the counter is set to zero. The counter is displayed, incremented and then written back to the EEPROM. e.g. when the application has been run eleven times:
When the application is run the next time: NOTE: Change the CONST value I2CBUS in the source code to 1 if you want to use it with an EEPROM on the I2C1 bus instead of the I2C0 bus. |
|
| I2C |
EE256Demo.mod EEPROM256K.mod TestData.mod |
Reading / writing a 256Kbit EEPROM via the I2C bus The program prompts the user for an EEPROM address and one of five actions:
e.g. Set the start address to 0, store the data and then read it back and compare it with what was written: |

| LCD |
DigiClock.mod LCD.mod |
Alphanumeric LCD Display and Real Time Clock Example Displays the current time on a 2x16 character alphanumeric LCD display driven by a Samsung KS0070B controller using an 8-bit data interface. |
|
| Motor |
StepperMotor.mod |
Step Motor Example Controls a small bipolar step motor connected to P0.12 and P0.21 as implemented on the Embedded Artists LPC2148 Education Board(V3). The application runs the motor at 5, 50 and 500 RPM for 5 seconds at each speed in clockwise and then anti-clockwise directions. |

Fast IO Example Led connected to pin P0.13 configured as a fast IO pin, blinking once per second controlled by Timer0 |
|
| LPC2378 |
TextDisplay.mod Display.mod LCDEpson.mod Fonts.mod Fonst.res SPI.mod |

Redirect all text output from functions in the Out module to the Nokia 6100 / Epson display using a font store in resource data. Target: LPC2378 systems with a Nokia 6100 / Epson display connected to SPI0 / SSP0 Tested on: Olimex LPC2378-STK Development Prototype Board |
