Overview

This design document provides a quick start guide for the NXP Model-Based Design Toolbox (MBDT) tailored for the LPC553x series of microcontrollers. It details the installation process for the MATLAB toolbox package, including system requirements and toolchain configuration for automatic code generation using Simulink Coder and Embedded Coder. The guide covers the hardware setup of the LPCXpresso55S36 development board and provides step-by-step instructions for running built-in examples, such as a GPIO polling application. Key features include an integrated Simulink library for MCU peripherals, an examples library for on-chip modules, and support for MATLAB releases including R2022a, R2022b, and R2023a. It also specifies the necessary prerequisites, such as the Embedded Coder Support Package for ARM Cortex-M processors.

Use Cases

  • Embedded software development for LPC553x MCUs using MATLAB and Simulink
  • Rapid prototyping on LPCXpresso55S36 development boards
