Lpc2000

I am using an Ashling Vitra JTAG interface here on an Ashling EVBA7 eval
board with LPC2106. I am not super familiar with the Ashling tools yet.

I am trying to activate the IDLE mode to check power consumption. (When
I get this working I will try Power Down mode)

When I write to the PCON register (E01FC0C0) the Pathfinder debugger
locks up. I need to exit the software, and reset the ICE and sometimes
power-cycle the board to regain control. Neither the reset button on the
board, nor the EINT0, programmed to be a WAKEUP input, break out of this
situation. I can't get out of it with any of the debugger reet commands
eoither.

Perhps that makes sense, to a degree. IDLE mode is supposed to stop the
"processor clock" so does this mean JTAG become inoperative when you
actiavte any LPC sleep mode? How can you debug a program with a sleep
mode activation if everything hangs ? And maybe htis is just an
ill-behaved debugger?

I would appreciate any experience you have debugging with an IDLE mode
activation, if it worked for you, and any hints on things to look for or
try. Thanks. When I get the EINT0 WAKEUP working I will move to
timer-initiated wakeups and Power Down mode.
