LPC9xx/LPC9xxx / LPC902 Programming Question...
January 03, 2007, 04:23:22 PM
Total newbie to LPC902 device.  Veteran w/8051!

Q: What should we buy to program the LPC902?

In case it matters to your answer...
1 - We do not require simulator or debugger capabilities.
2 - I will write this in 100% Assembler, using a 20-year old Avocet assembler.
2.5 - I'd rather skip the learning curve, but if it's truly WORTH IT, I'd consider the Keil "suite".
3 - Our needs are for the LPC901/2/3 devices only.
4 - All things considered, we short on bench space for yet another EPROM-style programmer...
5 - The code, once developed, will never need to be updated once we ship it to a customer.
6 - It will also be so simple, (hopefully), I won't even have to update it after I write it.  ??

Now of course eventually, we'll get away from using breadboards and DIP packages in development and we'll have to program surface mount in production. 

So with all that in mind, is the Emulator/Programmer EPM900? the best way to go?
What do I need to buy?  Do I have have to use this FlashMagic thing?
I've already verified that I can pretty easily adjust the Avocet assembler to accomodate the SRF's, etc...,

Basically, I'm going to have a *.HEX file and I want a "No-B/S" way to get it into the device.

Thanks.

BTW - I'm sure this has been asked a million times.
Please feel free to just email me the write up.
