Usually what we do is have an agreement with the Philips distributors or with philips semiconductor themselves, pay the devices from them with your code already programmed inside and about passing them the code you need to get them to sign and NDA with your company. another method is to outsource the programming to a programming house that run an operation just dealing with programing the chips they usually charge like USD$1 per chip for 1k chips or something like that and for your qty of 20k it will be cheaper.

 Question: how are you programming the LPC on-chip flash in a 
 manufacturing / production environment?
 
 During development, I'm primarily using the JTAG interface to load 
 the flash.  On rare occasions I'll go the ISP / serial interface 
 route.  But production is a whole different story.
 
 For example, are there dedicated device-programming stations for the 
 Philips chips before they're placed on the board?
 
 Production quantity in this case is probably around 20k a year.  I 
 mention this because certain economies of scale kick in at different 
 quantities (i.e. if this was a garage-shop operation, manually 
 connecting a stuffed board to a serial port or an emulator might make 
 sense).
 
 Thanks.
