Connections
Connect the LPC1768 to the buttons and LED in the following fashion.
Polarized
Components
Pay special attention to the component’s markings indicating how to place it on the breadboard. Polarized components can only be connected
to a circuit in one direction. Polarized components are highlighted with a yellow warning triangle in the table below.
Fritzing Diagram
Be careful with the direction of the LED (polarity matters!). In the diagram, the flat edge (see the Tips section below) is facing to the left.
Note that the colors of the wires do not matter. Feel free to use any color you like! Do not worry if your kit does not have 5 black wires.
Hookup Table
Place the LPC1768 in the first breadboard with pin VOUT in position i1 and pin 20 in position b20.
Connect the rest of the components as follows:
