ISP on LPC936

Anyone done ISP on a 936?

On the app. note AN10258, there is a statement that says 'To control
VDD, a PNP transistor is needed, because P2.3 cannot supply enough
current for the LPC9xx during programming.'

Can I just supply 3.3V all the time to the 936 and not connect P2.3 to
my board? Problems with that?

No, you must build it as stated, it is part of the timing for
entering setup to the device. Build it exactly like the app note and
it will work 100%........yes I'm using the 936 and have built a
programmer for both ISP and ICP.

The programming board actually provides power to the application at
specific times and not at other times???

I figured that was what the logic was. I was trying to see if it was
mandatory.

Thanks.
