Hi Everybody! Im a new in the world of ARM, im previosly use 8051-compatible form Atmel, Z8000 & PIC's. I need to choose between NXP LPC2148 and ATMEL AT91SAMS256, two uC that seems to be very similar. I live in Argentina (by the way, sorry for my bad English!), and the cost of OLIMEX Starters Kits are similar for the two options. One thing I love from ATMEL is th LOW Prices, but...

Annoying Problem With SPI interface to Atmel Dataflash

Hi- I am having probles with the LP32138 SSP (SPI) interface to an Atmel dataflash (AT45DB161). I believe it has to do with the chip select implementation. To read the status register of the Atmel dataflash, for example, the device requires an opcode 'write' followed by a 'read'. The write works fine, but the 'read' fails. I believe it is failing because the chip select gets deasserte...

I was looking for something comprable so I could watch ports and debug while building programs. Any suggestions? I ha...

I am trying to port a basic USB CDC stack from an AT90USB162 to the LPC2148 (rather than paying for something like an FT232RL), and it seems on the atmel chips you can use PROGMEM to store variables in flash memory rather than using SRAM (which is good since the AT90USB162 only has 512 bytes of it). I was wondering if there is a straight forward way to do the same with an lpc2100? All of the d...

Hi all, After successfully programming Atmel uC, I am now moving to LPCs. I'm a DYI guy and after successfully destroying my parallel PC interface trying different adapters, I find myself forced to look for a USB or serial (JTAG) programmer. I'm not sure what I need as I'm just starting to understand ARM, and never used JTAG before. What I'm looking for is a very simple schematic of an a...

Noob here, I'm just starting out with the LPC2368 using the Keil compiler software. I've come from using Atmel chips and the way of defining interrupts on pins was somewhat easier...

Has anyone seen anywhere a GPIO pin schematic for the LPC17xx devices, i.e. the circuitry inside the pin. I have a feeling I have seen it in the datasheet/user manual but now cannot find it. Or I might be thinking of Atmel AVR. I really just want to know what protection diodes are on the pins and how they are connected - I am curious about what happens when you put 5V on the 5V tolerant pins an...

Hi All, I've developed a few GPS logger solutions around the LPCs and it's frustrating that most GPS modules have an ARM7 core inside already. The latest u-blox modules have SPI, RS232 and USB ports right off the GPS module which is everything I need but I still have to bolt on another LPC to do a little file system stuff and add a few sensors. Atmel just announced a new micro with...

Hello all! I'm having some problems setting up ssp clock speed on a LPC1114. I want to set it to 15 MHz to communicate with an ATMEL AT45DB011D flash memory, but only get 3, no matter what I do, and I'm sure it's not a software problem since I already have this working with an LPC2368 at 15 MHz peripheral clock. On the other hand, AT45DB011D electrical specifications does not specify a minimum ...

Anyone used the ATMEL EEPROMs? Just a curiousity question. I was wondering why the 8 byte write limitation on a single write (page)? Not only that, if you write somewhere in the middle of the 8 byte page, you have to end the write at the end of the page and issue another write at the beginning of the next, even though the addresses are sequential. The Read has no such restriction. Why i...
