Lpc2000

Hi,

I know that code read protection exists on the 
LPC2114,2124,2212,2214. Does code read protection exist on the 
LPC2106.

If it doesnt, will the bootloader eventually support this feature?

If the LPC2106 doesnt have code protection, then we're going to have 
to use a PIC (gasp! horror!)

No (I think we may need to start building a FAQ).

Also no, There was a recent post from philips_apps on this, apparently a 
re-spin of the silicon would be required.

Ashling's answer is incomplete. From the 'Flash security' thread just a 
little while ago.

"Hello Armando,

Richard is right, The LPC2104 / 2105 and 2106 do not support code read
protection. Somebody with a JTAG debugger can go in an read your code.
All other devices of the LPC2000-family do support code read protection.

Hi Shane,

	As Robert said the LPC210X family does not support code read 
protection (great mistake from Philips). If you are working in a cost 
effective product, probably you can use a PIC or wait for the 
AT91SAM7S Atmel ARM7 family.
