Which arm7 dev board to buy?

I've worked with Logic Product Development's boards and they are very good - although they are a bit pricey.

I can recommend the Embedded Artist boards - see

I normally use the Keil ones ? but have used some Olimex, both are fine.

I buy my Keil boards from Farnell, as they are much cheaper than through many of the embedded vendors, althpouigh they don't offer whole range.

Keil have lots of example programs for their boards which you can downlaod from their website.

An evaluation version of their compiler is free to, and will give you plenty of scope to learn, using a first rate tool chain. The simulator of the chips is a really help when trying to work out why a peripheral is not working as intended.

It also depends where you are located. You can get Olimex Boards from Sparkfun in the US at a better price and less shipping but if you are not in the US, Olimex might be the lowest cost. Other boards particularly for LPCs can be found at

I have purchased and am awaiting the delivery of an Embedded Artists LPC2478

it uses NXP chips. I have also purchased the Code Red development tool with the JTAG probe to support it. It is the cheapest way to get a good tool set that I found so far. Let me know how yours works out. I am anticipating my delivery to occur today. It is an International shipment but haas not taken too long using PAY PAL to translate into EUROs was helpful.

We can also recommend Embedded Artists highly. As well as the features, quality and good value of the boards, their documentation and example code is of a high standard. Our most recent order was placed on Monday and the boards arrived on Friday - not a bad time from Sweden to Australia! I don't know what their technical support is like because we have had no need to use it :-)
