100-pin Version of SuperPro

Would it be possible to get a SuperPro that uses the 100-pin version of the same CPU? I think it is NXP's part LPC1766? I could buy the blank CPU from Newark, or Digikey, but I want to use BasicTools. I need the extra I/O pins.

Re: contiguous bits on a port

I too have been perplexed by these missing pins. I have been using Port 2 pins 0 - 7 as my 8-bit data bus. Now I am wanting to use some high speed A/D & D/A chips that have a 16-bit wide data bus. How could I do this? I could write some code that shifts data around to make it "line up" with the avai...

Interrupts using the SuperPro with Basic Tools

Hello All, I have been trying for some time now to get an interrupt to work on the SuperPro board using Basic Tools. At first I thought my code had problems (I am not a programmer by trade). But now I am having the same problem with the library examples. Below is a paste from my Basic Tools screen.....

Re: QEI Interrupt Trouble

Hello GK, Thanks for your post. I still have not been able to get this to work. I will try your code tonight. I am cautiously optimistic. I don't care about RPMs in my application, and it seems that the stuff you added is all to do with Velocity capture and RPM calculation. Anyway, maybe it needs it...

QEI Interrupt Trouble

Hello All, A while back I posted and got good advice about how to use the QEI hardware. I am only using it to count encoder steps and it works well. BUT, I have added so much to my program that polling the encoder is no longer effective because my main loop is about 250mS. Now I want to have the enc...
