   1 This folder contains a number of tools that may be useful when developing with
   2 the LPC1343 Reference Board:

   6   /dotfactory
   7   -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
   8   An open-source (GPL) Windows-based program to convert TTF fonts to .c
   9   source files.  This application is included here for convenience sake and
  10   can be used to convert TTF fonts for use with the TFT LCD display with
  11   minor modifications to the generated source files.  See the existing fonts
  12   in 'drivers/displays/tft/fonts' for an example.

  17   /examples
  18   -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  19   Example software showing how to use the LPC1343 to accomplish certain tasks
  20   or how to use it with external devices, such as communicating with the PC
  21   using USB HID, etc.

  25 ===============================================================================
  26   /lpcrc
  27   -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  28   This utility fixes the CRC of any .bin files generated with GCC from the
  29   command line.  You must use this utility to patch any compiled firmware that
  30   will be deployed via the USB bootloader.
  31
  32   The GCC src is included in the root folder and should build on any platform
  33   where a native GCC toolchain is available.  A pre=compiled windows binary is
  34   included in /bin for convenience sake, as well as in the root folder of the
  35   LPC1343 Code Base.
  36
  37   If you are using the provided CodeLite project files, lpcrc will
  38   automatically be executed after every build.  You only need to run lpcrc if
  39   you are building directly from the command=line.
  40 ===============================================================================
  41
  42
  43 ===============================================================================
  44   /schematics
  45   -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  46   Schematics showing the pin connections that are assumed to be used by the
  47   LPC1343 Code Base.
  48 ===============================================================================
  49
  50
  51 ===============================================================================
  52   /testfirmware
  53   -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  54   Various pre-compiled binaires files that can be used to test the
  55   functionality of the LPC1343.  This firmware assumes that the board follows
  56   the layout show in 'tools/schematics'
