/> This is believed to be the world's first commercial starter kit for the ARM Cortex-M0-based LPC1227 microcontroller. The strong partnership and tight cooperation between NXP and IAR Systems during the development project has led to IAR Systems latest starter kit being the first to the market.

Included in the kit is a code size limited version of IAR Embedded Workbench, a set of development tools for building and debugging embedded system applications using assembler, C and C++. It provides a completely integrated development environment that includes a project manager, editor, build tools and the C-SPY debugger.
