Whilst I can still get serial mice I feel their days are numbered moreso than PS/2 mice which presumable will also eventually become obsolete for USB mice. I have trawled for 8051 code for the PS/2 mouse and only found one instance which is in assembler and not for the assembler bundled with the SDCC compiler. There were some hints that there might be code on the Philips website but I can...

hiiiiiiiii, i am interfacing LCD to my ARM microcontroller (PHILIPS LPC2138).i am able to program the LCD ,but it is uncertain. the problem is that when i reset my microcontroller or my development board the LCD is programmed and it displays the messages sent to it but when i reset it again it goes blank and after another reset it works fine again. so LCD gets programmed alternately. ...

Hi, My boss gave me an embedded device with a 8051 processor coupled to a SCC2692 (by Philips) uart and the Keil c compiler. Now I was ordered to develop some kind of pc-interface. The problem now is: I have absolutely now idea how to access this SCC2692 uart. I have documentation the chip, but how am I supposed to fiddle with it? Is it memory mapped? Does the 8051 have special io-ins...

Hello all, I started recently to learn MCU world and I have dealed with 8-bits PIC16F684 & HCS08 MCUs and it was exiting & very helpful experience. Now I want to move on to 16/32 bits witch ARM. I bought a wonderful Dev board with Philips LCP2148, "Embedded Artists", but now I am VERY STUCK witch DEV ENVironment: witch one to use to develop and program my board?. With the board I got many ...

Hi, I am working on a prototype with the above controller in device mode. I have no problem transferring packets smaller than 64Bytes; but I am having trouble with packets larger than 64 bytes, the size of the end point FIFO buffer. Currently I simply chop up the data I want to send in 64 byte chunks + any remaining bytes and then send them out by writing to the endpoint and then valida...

Hi, I am thinking about putting either eCos or ucOS into the just released Philips ARM7 LPC21xx chip. It has something like 16kB of RAM, 128kB (or 256kB depending on the part) of FLASH on-chip, with no external memory bus. Before going ahead, I would like to have a sanity check: can the porting of eCos or ucOS be done with the resources? It aims to be my hobby project. Just want to try...

Hi all, Amontec just released a new configuration of the RAVEN on the Chameleon POD. This configuration enables the use of the rtck (return clock) for all ARM -s series. In fact, the ARM7TDMI-s ( and other ARM -s ), like Philips LPC21xx, use the rtck signal to control the baudrate of the JTAG. This means you can debug software running at very low frequency, but this means too that ...

I'm interested in purchasing a demo board for an ARM7TDMI-based microcontroller (a Philips LPC2129 to be exact.) That's fine with me, it only costs ~$150. I want be able to debug it with a JTAG debugger, so ~$300 debuggers by Keil and/or Nohau come to mind. Salespeople tell me that I can't just stick the Jtag onto the demo board, but that I would also need to buy their full $2000+ develo...

Hi, I'm involved in a project where we are building a still image capture device. We have a CMOS image sensor (Pixart PAS106B) connected via I2C to a philips lpc2106 (Arm 7) microcontroller. I'm able to capture images without trouble, however, I notice - depending on the ambient light - my image is either too light or too dark. To correct this problem, I want to write a small (hopefully ...

I have started a new Yahoo! group to discuss the AT91SAM7 ARM CPUs. These chips seem to be divergent from the other Atmel ARM CPUs. They can function as MCUs with no additional chips, much like the OKI and Philips chips. Please check it out, join and contribute. Rick Collins www.gnuarm.com

Hi all, my company has a old product which use intel's p80c31, now my boss ask me to try to use philips'p89c51rd2 to replace the p80c31, so we can save the ST m27c512 on which program runs. I thinked the p89c51rd2 is 100% compatiable to p80c31, so I just burned the program into on-chip FLASH, and connectted the !EA to vcc, and power on, but the program seems not running. Strange I think...

Hi everybody, I am working for a company that develops an embedded storage device based on 2GB Compact Flash. CPU type is PQ2-Pro ( MPC8349 ). The flash is connected via USB interface using PHY Philips ISP1504. The operating system is Linux 2.6.13. The Linux image is built using LTIB (Linux Target Image Builder). The problem is the following: Linux kernel does not recognize the USB CF card...

Hi, I'm currently using the SAA7108AE IC from NXP (Philips) for a video decoding and encoding application. The decoding part works well so there's no problem on this side. However, I have trouble making the encoder work. The encoder part of the SAA7108AE is pretty much the same as the SAA7105 (which is an encoder only). Input to the encoder : ITU 656 stream (8 bits). 27 MHz clock Outp...

Dear Friends... For my project I am working with philips ARM7 based LPC2214 microcontroller and now I have to interface PCMCIA GSM modem with the circuit. I need to transmit some data by this modem because of its low cost and I need to go for near about 20,000 boards so interfacing PCMCIA is very benificial cost wise. The problem I am facing I don't know how to interface this modem with LPC2...

Does anybody know what does Philips specification on I2C mean when saying: " Masters must send repeated Start and Stop conditions at the same position in the format frame. In other words, arbitration isn't allowed between: 1. A repeated START condition and a data bit. 2. A STOP condition and a data bit. 3. A repeated START condition and a STOP condition " What the hell mean "a...
