Hi Curt, Thanks for your feedback. FYI, we now offer a range of adapters with the devices all ready soldered/tested. Details on our page at www.ashling.com/support/LPC2000. I'd appreciate if you send me some details (directly) on the "quirks" you mention below. We're working on our next release and will incorporate good suggestions time/schedules permitting.

It is part of a complete development system including gcc compiler, source-level debugger, etc. Full license, including board, is about 1500USD. It's has its many quirks, but its big advantage is that it does work right out of the box. However, it is windows-centric. Also, I seem to recall that for the non-210x LPC chips, you need to buy a bare board and solder the LPC chip on yourself. Others on this list are developing on Linux, they might be able to point you to other tools that might better fit your needs in that environment.

The LPC2294 looks perfect from what I can see, but I've never used ARM devices before and would very much appreciate a little input. It looks to me like the Ashling LPC2000 dev board would be good for getting me familiar with ARM, and the Crossworks compiler runs under Linux which is what I want. Does anyone have any experience with Ashling in general? Are they good products? Would Crosswork's kit work with it? My experince includes 68k, Infineon (X)C166, Fujitsu 16 bit devices and lots of eight bit stuff, so I have a good amount of experice including a large amout of 16 and some 32 bit micros. A few of the micros I've worked with have JTAG interfaces and I like the fact that these Phillips devices have them too. Are the ARM devices reasonably easy to get to grips with for someone with the above experience? Finally, I would need to hang a couple of mega bytes of RAM on the external address and data bus, how do ARM devices with internal RAM cope with that? It might seem like a daft question, but, for example, the Infineon XC16x devcies with internal flash aren't so great for hanging stuff off the external bus because of memory segmentation.
