LPC1768 variant. #20

Open je310 opened 8 years ago

je310 commented 8 years ago

Hello,

I have made a version for the LPC1768 with accompanying python script. I feel that this implementation is clean and minimal, thus easy to modify for other platforms on the Mbed framework. This implementation runs at 5FPS, the other Mbed code base would only work at around 1FPS on my setup. This uses a forground/background topology with the lepton read being initiated by a timer interrupt, all spare cycles are then used to send over serial to the host. As it stands not all frames can make it to the host, this could be rectified by using the DMA controller to manage either the Lepton reading or the Serial to PC.

I hope others find this helpful.
