Which board in Stellarisware correspond with the LM4F232H5QD

Hi,

This is a beginner question. I am setting up CodeSourcery IDE to use with my Stellaris LM4F232 board and in the first step it is required to import the correct project file from Stellarisware "boards" folder and none of the board numbers there seem to correspond with LM4F232H5QD. I am puzzled as to which file to select, can you please guide me?

Thanks,

Ali

  • To my knowledge - the LX4F232H5QD appears on the original LM4F demo board.  This board is far more advanced than the current LX4F "launchpad."  You can positively confirm this board by the presence of the small color OLED and rather large Phoenix-style connector for your analog inputs.  (you may want to visually scan this board - for other markings or identification - just in case)

    Recall that all of the current devices are physically marked LX - not LM.  (but this should have no effect on your selection - just choose LM for that purpose)

  • Hi,

    find the examples in the folder 'ek-lm4f232' which you can find in the StellarisWare folder (if not already installed http://www.ti.com/tool/sw-lm3s).

    Kind regards

  • Locating LM4F examples w/in "SW-LM3S" seems (at best) - counter-intuitive...  (even though great use is made of earlier code/examples...)

    Note that neither you nor I have found/supplied poster's requested, "board number."

  • Hi,

    Yes there is a big pheonix style conntector, and the OLED which you referred to, as well. So based on what you are saying we should assume that the current range of software tools are lagging behind this particular evaluation board? if this is the case, then is there a backwards compatible board software package for LX4F232H5QD?

    What is the worst that can happen if the wrong project file is selected for the import?

    Thanks,

  • Hi Ali,

    did you install the Full Stellarisware Package which I've mentioned above?

    If not, please do it and you will find the Files related to this board.

  • Hi aBUGSWorstnightmare (awesome name btw),

    Thanks for your reply. The issue was that I was running the Stellarisware installation on Linux through Wine (Windows layer wrapper in Linux) and my Wine was not properly installed, hence not installing all the board properly. I am currently reinstalling Wine and hopefully Stellarisware should show the LM4 board packages as well.

    Thanks,

    Ali
