Philips Flash Utility for LPC2148?

Started by skyspyco March 7, 2006
I recently switched development boards from the Olimex LPC2138 to the 
LPC2148.  Now it seems that the standard Philips Flash Utility (ver. 
2.2.0) that I was using for the LPC2138 does not include the LPC2148 
in its supported devices list.

What are you using to program the flash on the LPC2148?  Is Lpc21isp 
the only free Win tool for flash programming on the LPC2148?

Thanks,
Paul

LPC2000 Flash Utility 2.2.3 supports LPC2148.  Start at "All LPC2000 
Products" at http://www.standardics.philips.com/products/lpc2000/all/ , 
open a CPU, select Support Docs.

I haven't yet found a way from http://www.philips.com to that "All 
LPC2000 Products" page.

Im using LPC2000 Flash Utility V2.2.3 and it works well. Ive downloaded
lpc21isp source code and compiled using DEV C++ and it is working very well
for me, and is better integrated with my Programmer's Notepad 2 than
Philips' program.

Ive not found any other free software that does this task, but I dont believe
you need anything else.

Karl,

the only way I found was http://www.philips.com/microcontrollers but
there was no link at www.philips.com, just following an earlier post.
Guess Philips.com is better suited for consumer products and not well
suited for microcontroller information.

Try 
http://www.standardics.philips.com/support/documents/microcontrollers/zip/flash.isp.utility.lpc2000.zip
I think I might put a link for it in the group link page.

Karl, thanks for the link to the new version.  I could not find it 
under the LPC2148 product folder.
	Also noticed that it does not seem to connect to the Olimex LPC2148 
board above the 38.4k baud rate.  My other Olimex LPC2138 board 
works all the way through 115.2k baud.

I guess this is because the LPC2138 board has a 14.something MHz
crystal that is an exact multiple of 115200 so it can generate
the standard bitrates with 0% error.

The LPC2148 probably has a 12.000 MHz crystal (required to generate
the 48 MHz clock for USB), which is not an exact multiple of 115200
so the standard bitrates always have some error. The error is too
big for bitrates above 38k4.
