Lpc2000

Hello Varuzhan,

the document you are looking for is the Users Manual of the device you
are working with. As an example the UM for the LPC2114/2124/2212/2214
can be found here:  (big file)
http://www.semiconductors.philips.com/acrobat_download/usermanuals/UM_LPC2114_2124_2212_2214_2.pdf
IN chapter 19 you can find all the commands used by either ISP or IAP
programming. ISP (In System Programming) is used at startup of the
device, IAP (In Application Programming) is called by your application
code. Pages 224-239 provide a detailed list of options for programming
the flash. 

I would highly recommend to use existing utilities that you can
download from Philips for programming your initial program into the
flash. 

Cheers, Bob
