I await further information with interest, though it would be unlikely we'd be interested in using it unless it was open source. Our production programming is integrated into an automated test system. After programming, the device is reset (into normal mode), the POST information retrieved and further self-tests run under the command of the production test software. The result is then displayed (a simple good/bad status for the operator) and details recorded with the unit serial number to a back-end database. It's all fully automated and integrated. A fairly standard approach too, I would imagine (I'm no production expert). By the way, the interface to the Philips built-in boot loader is the same regardless of CPU variant (unless you're talking about non-LPC2xxx CPUs?), or the crystal speed. As I say, I await further information with interest: it's always good to see alternative approaches and ideas.
