Microcontrollers are getting cheaper, more powerful and more flexible, but there remains
a barrier to a host of new applications; someone has to build the first prototype! With mbed,
ARM has focused on getting you there as quickly as possible.
The mbed is built around the NXP LPC1768 microcontroller, which is based on a Cortex-M3 Core running at 96MHz, with 512KB FLASH, 64KB RAM
and a load of interfaces including Ethernet, USB Device, CAN, SPI, I2C and other I/O.
Embedded Artists has designed a Prototype board
and a Base board
that makes it possible to make interesting experiments and prototyping with both mbed and the LPCXpresso boards. If you buy the mbed and
the Base board at the same time you save 7 EUR.

There is no reason why it has to be so hard buildning prototypes, but without the right tools, it really
is. So mbed has tackled this by being a tool for the sole purpose of developing prototypes. ARM hasn't
had to dumb down the technology; it's all built on industry standard stuff. They have just done a lot of
the groundwork for you, and made the trade-offs and choices appropriate for the task, so you don't have to.
