Modification to Olimex LPC-P2103 for easy Flash Programming

Modification to Olimex LPC-P2103 for easy Flash Programming

2006-03-23 by fordp2002

Here is a post I put on the Sparkfun Electronics.

I post it here for those that do not frequent that place!

I have one of the above boards and very nice it is too.

It is however not as easy to use with the Philips flash utility as it
should be.

The Reset can be asserted from the serial port but not the BSL line.
So you have to continually put the BSL jumper on to Program and then
take it off and press reset to Run the application.

The Philips software supports asserting the BSL line from the RTS line
on the serial port.

I looked at the circuit and realized I could get the Olimex board to
work full automatically with the addition of just two patch wires.

Heres how you do it. (As code to stop the smileys)

Code:
Wire 1 between RS232 pin 7 and the R1IN (U2 Pin 8).
Wire 2 between U2 Pin 9 (R29 pad) and BSL (BSL end of R8).


I tried it and it works. Now I can Flash and run the software all from
the PC with no messing with jumpers.
