I am beginner in LPC2000. I want to ask some questions. Thank you! 1. I wonder whether there's any free software that can be used to download programs to the external flash via UART or JTAG? 2. I don't know how to use the ISP protocol provided by Philips, will anyone who has written a program to download programs to the external flash teach me how to do that, or send me the source code? thanks!

Hello, you can't use the ISP protocol to program an external flash. On the 2210/20 it's only possible to transfer code to target RAM. Philips can't know how your external memory wants to be programmed. The OpenOCD (GPLed JTAG debugger for ARM7/9 systems, happens to be my project ;)) supports programming of external CFI compatible flashes using the Intel commandset. Regards, Dominic

Thank Dominic, I heard that first I could write my program to the on- chip RAM via ISP, then I could used the pre-downloaded program to download my bootloader to flash if the program running in RAM is a flash program. Is it that possible? Is there anyone doing this before, and will it be very difficult? Another question is where can I download openOCD?

Sure, you could write a flash program, write that to target RAM, and execute it there. It could then write your external flash. Maybe one of the free bootloaders (Apex?) is small enough to fit into the LPC2000, and has already been ported. Ecos/Redboot has support for the lpc2000, but I'm not sure if that's available in the free version, or only via EcosPro. The OpenOCD is available at openocd.berlios.de Regards, Dominic

I have downloaded the openOCD from the website you gave to me, however, when I tried to make the Makefile, errors always occured. It happened both in Linux and Window using cygwin. Then what's the problem?

Sorry to ask so many question. One more. ^_^ Does the openOCD support flashless LPCs?

What version did you download? What errors occured? If there are more problems, consider using the OpenOCD help forum at https://developer.berlios.de/forum/forum.php?forum_id=12655 OpenOCD should work with flashless LPCs, too, just don't specify a "flash bank" in the configuration file. You should have a look at the documentation at http://openfacts.berlios.de/index-en.phtml?title=Open_On-Chip_Debugger Regards, Dominic

I guess this was the last release from the files section, precompiled for Cygwin with support for FTDI FT2232 based JTAG interfaces. Try this one instead: http://www.siwawi.arubi.uni-kl.de/avr_projects/arm_projects/openocd_svn55_win32_cygwin.zip It comes with all the files necessary and you don't have to build it yourself.

Dominic, I still meet a problem when trying to run the version you recommended. The problem is where I should run this version, cygwin, DOS, or just double click it? I tried all of them, but none worked. And the problem with the version I downloaded before is that one headfile missing, exactly ftd2xx.h, whose directory is openocd\src\jtag. And this version was downloaded from the website showing as follows: http://prdownload.berlios.de/openocd/openocd-cygwin-ftd2xx- 20060213.tar.gz Best Regards Kevin --- In lpc2000@yahoogroups.com, Dominic Rath <Dominic.Rath@...> wrote: > > I guess this was the last release from the files section, precompiled for > Cygwin with support for FTDI FT2232 based JTAG interfaces. > > Try this one instead: > http://www.siwawi.arubi.uni- kl.de/avr_projects/arm_projects/openocd_svn55_win32_cygwin.zip > > It comes with all the files necessary and you don't have to build it yourself.

Hello, the OpenOCD requires a configuration file, specifying the JTAG interface to use, the layout of the JTAG scan chain, the target connected, and other things. By default, it tries to open 'openocd.cfg' in the same directory as the binary, but you can select the configuration file with the '-f config.file' command line switch. This means that double-clicking wont work, unless you use a link specifying the appropriate command line arguments. Regards, Dominic

You need to :- 1) Get Jim Lynch's latest tutorial. Search elsewhere in this group for where to get it from. Make sure it is the version based on OpenOCD and you use the exact version that jim mentions. You can however use the latest version of OpenOCD that dominic gave you a URL too. 2) Adapt Jim's Led Flashing program to suit your chip, this will at least need modification of the Linker scripts. Make sure you try the running from RAM bit and skip past the running from Flash bit. Does anybody in this group have or know where to get a linker script for Kevin's chip ????? It may be in the files section of this group. 3) Once you have LED flashing then your Toolchain is working. Then you can move on to look at using OpenOCD to write to your flash. --- In lpc2000@yahoogroups.com, "volunteer_sysu" <volunteer01@...> wrote:

Philips can't know how >your external memory wants to be programmed. Well, you could use the serial ISP to bootstrap the programming routines into RAM. That's how some serial ISPs work even for internal flash. The ST10 as an example loads something like 16 bytes from the serial port to a fixed memory location and then jumps to it. The serial ISP process is a set of step loading larger programs into RAM until you have one that can handle the flash programming. It's a lot more straightforward than I just made it sound.

Hello, Dominic I wonder whether I can use the schema of the JTAG in your document "Open On-chip Debugger" to make a JTAG interface. Then I can use it to debug my evaluation kit in openOCD, right?
