All,
Problem is fixed. JTAG works on my proto hardware.
The JTAG (P1.36-26) pins were configured for GPIO instead of debug.
In the PINSEL2 register I had to set bit #2. That did it.
All is well now, but I still do not understand why the JTAG worked
on the Keil MCB2130 eval board?? I was not setting PINSEL2 bit 2 in
my code. Does the LPC2138 not need to have this bit set, where the
LPC2131 does?
Anyone using the Keil MCB2130, please take note of this issue if you
plan on using the JTAG interface on your own hardware.
Thanks for your help and suggestions.
