The next version 0.99-3 of http://jumentum.sourceforge.net Jumentum is available, and this adds NTSC/PAL composite video output as well as PS/2 keyboard input for the mbed and the LPC1768 microcontroller. This enables the Jumentum-enabled mbed to act as a standalone single-chip BASIC programmable computer connected to a television. The mbed emulates a 80x25 VT100 terminal, making terminal control simple, and the built-in full-screen editor can be used on the television screen.
To use it, you just need to drag the "basic-mbed-video-pal.bin" or "basic-mbed-video-ntsc.bin" onto your mbed. The instructions to wire up the mbed to your television and PS/2 keyboard are shown http://jumentum.sourceforge.net/lpc1768-video.html here.
To see the sourcecode, download the archive http://sourceforge.net/projects/jumentum/files/ from Sourceforge linked from the main web page. It uses the off-line Codesourcery GCC compiler and build tools.
Of course all LPC21xx and LPC23xx models that were supported earlier are still supported.
