LPC935 programming

Hello,

Has anyone ever tried to program a Philips 89LPC935 with labview. I'm building an test application in which I first need to program the LPC935. the only lines that are available are the Rxd and Txd lines on the uP. Is it possible to send the program directly over the rs232 port, or do I anyway need an external program and call this one in labview?

It looks like you would need an application to program the microcontroller. Here are a couple of links I checked out.

I,ve also found this site. I found a programming protocol for ISP programming. but how can I implement this in labview.

Looking at your manual, section 19.11 page 128 and Table 112 show the format and commands to send out the serial port. I think you could use VISA vi's to talk to the unit. One problem that I see is that it requires a checksum in the command. I did not see any mention as to what type of checksum calculation to use.

Looking at Section 20 Table 125, if those are the programming instructions that need to be converted and sent out the serial port, I think you are in for a ton of work to implement this vi.

Maybe you could use the Flash program and monitor the serial port communications to capture the data stream as it is transmitted.

I'll attach a vi that I used to talk to a scope with the serial port. Look at the structure of initializing the serial port, sending commands, and closing the serial port.
