Well, you know, it's a lot easier to bribe or pay someone at the factory to
give you the code.

No fuss no mess.

Getting code that way is the most common easiest way too.

In some countries, they seem to do that as a matter of fact anyway.

Why bother trying to extract the binary code out of the chip.

Hi all,

I think some of us have totally missed the point. Your competitor is not
going to sit down and try to crack your chip. He is going to send it to a
slimy company that have already worked out how to see into your type of chip
and they will charge a pittance for ripping it off.

This is a business. They charge their clients a few thousand dollars for a
few minutes work. This IS a global problem and one that Chip manufacturers
need to seriously adress.

Dont tell me how difficult it is to find a way into a chip. You only have to
do it once then set up in business.

Your code is worth max 10K usd. What is it worth to your competitor. Being
as it is only a few minutes work to the copy company you can probably
bargain the price down too.

This is a real problem and one that will not go away through wishful
thinking.

Hi all,

Dear people, I don't want to discuss about governments, back doors, 
etc. 
We all know that exists expensive procedures to unprotect devices, 
but they are EXPENSIVES and in most cases exceeds the development 
expense. 
If I really want to protect my intellectual property in all 
circumstances, I should use a tamper proof device. But I want to use 
the LPC2104 because of it's price and features. 

According to LPC2114 data sheet and like Pete wrote, code read 
protection in LPC2114 is available since bootloader revision 1.61 
But this device is more expensive than the LPC2104. I can't believe 
that the LPC2104 doesn't have the same feature.

Please, could somebody tell me if the LPC2104 have code read 
protection?.

Thanks all

Armando
