LCD and touch screen display connectors 
These connectors are dedicated for the LCD and touch screen. On 
boards with an LCD already installed, they are located under the LCD 
panel and should not be handled by the user unless instructed to do so 
by NXP. For boards without an LCD installed, use these connectors to 
attach the optional LCD panel.  
 
3.  Getting Started 
The LPCXpresso54608 and LPCXpresso54628 boards are pre-programmed with a demo 
application showcasing Embedded Wizard from TARA Systems (note that some older 
stock may contain a demonstration from a different vendor). Connect a micro USB cable 
from connector J8 or J1 to a power source (computer or power supply) and the board will 
boot within a few seconds and run this demonstration.  
The LPCXpresso54618 board, as supplied in the OM13094 CAN-FD kit, is pre-
programmed with a CAN loopback example. For more information on this example 
please refer to Section 10. 
The LPCXpresso54018 board is pre-programmed with a demo application using emWIN 
graphics. Connect a micro USB cable from connector J8 or J1 to a power source 
(computer or power supply) and the board will boot within a few seconds and then run 
this demonstration. The LPCXpresso54018 demo is the “touch and draw” emWIN 
example from the SDK. 
The LPCXpresso54S018 board is pre-programmed with a spirit level demonstration 
program, which uses the User LEDs and on-board accelerometer. Connect a micro USB 
cable from connector J8 or J1 to a power source (computer or power supply), Place the 
board on a flat surface, and the 3 User LEDs will all light; tilting the board (rotating about 
the axis of the horizontal center of the board) will cause the LED pattern to change to 
illustrate the angle of tilt.

This section also describes how to download pre-built binary images to the 
LPCXpresso546x8 boards using its mass storage device capability, and how to set up 
the board to start debugging sessions using popular development tools. Note that the 
mass storage boot mode does not program off-chip flash devices (such as the quad SPI 
flash on the board), so some application examples (such as the Embedded Wizard 
demos) will require a different utility (J-flasher lite from SEGGER, MCUXpresso IDE’s
