1. How to read this chapter

This chapter describes the external memory controller for all LPC2400 parts. For EMC

configurations that are specific to LPC2458 and LPC2420/60/68/70/78, see Table5–64.

2. Basic configuration

The EMC is configured using the following registers:

1. Power: In the PCONP register (Table 4 –63 ), set bit PCEMC.

Remark: The EMC is enabled on reset (PCEMC = 1). On POR and warm reset, the

EMC is enabled as well, see Tab le 5–6 8 and Table5–71.

2. Clock: see Table 4–53.
