Coming from Arduino with NXP LXPXpresso board: What debugger to use

Greets to all!

I've had success with the Arduino and would like to move on to the M3 world. The NXP Xpresso with ARM LPC1549 looks like a great package.

mbed looks amazing too - but LOTSA stuff to get acquainted with to create the new workflow.

I'd like to take advantage of the on-chip debugging system and would like to hear any recommendations. I want to get the Xpresso from Mouser - and would like to order the debugger at the same time to save a bit of shipping.

Thanks!

The mbed/lpcxpresso 1549 already has an onboard programmer. You dont need a separate device. Full blown debugging requires a software toolset such as GNU, Keil or LPCXpresso. The onboard interface supports those toolsets. The mbed online compiler has limited debugging support, mainly consisting of printf()..
