LPC32xx WinCE 6.0 Board Support Package (BSP)

Introduction
NXP Semiconductors provides a free Board Support Package (BSP) for the LPC32xx series of microcontrollers running the WinCE 6.0 operating system. This BSP has been targeted to the Phytec 3250 board which features the NXP LPC3250 MCU. The BSP supports most for the LPC3250's peripherals as well as some of the Phytec 3250 board interfaces. This BSP is intended to be used as a reference for developing WinCE 6.0 platform images on the Phytec 3250 board or on a custom board.
This board support package is maintained by NXP Semiconductors and is periodically updated with issue fixes or new features.
