The LCD-DEMO-SC is available for the price of $49.00 (USD).

The LCD Demo-SC is a reference design for a low cost microcontroller and LCD solution using the NXP P89LPC9408 along with a couple of discrete external components. The Board is controlled by a simple two-button user interface (MODE and SELECT). The included CD contains example source code for several sample applications: an FM Radio display during a simulated channel scan, a 15 minute count down timer, a repeating pattern of 4 text lines and a scrolling message window. The user can edit this code and download to the reprogrammable Flash microcontroller via a 10-pin ICP header on the board using any external ICP programmer. A small USB based ICP programmer that allows programming of the LPC9408 and many other NXP microcontrollers from any PC is available from Future Designs, Inc here. The LCD Demo-SC can function as a Single Board Computer since the powerful LPC9408 contains a full 8KB of Flash memory allowing ample room for development of User Applications and the 12-pin header can support multiple I/O options.
