Philips LPC210x ARM

I've got a new board design on my desk right now with a LPC2106. The tools are working (IAR, Raven), and most chip/board hardware is operating (with 4 blue wires - so far).

The part has everything I need as far as memory, speed, etc. I considered using the ATMEL AT91FR40162, but with the LPC2x I can use both UARTS and SPI, and it has a built in oscillator and PLL. I also pefer the package. There isn't an industrial temp part yet, but I'm told there will be in a couple of months.

There isn't a lot of sample code yet, and some of the documentation is not yet "refined". I suspect that the answer to every question I have is in the documentation, but I've still got a lot of unanswered questions.

I haven't used a Philips part for years, due to a series of supply problems, and bad parts not too long after they took over the Signetics line, so I'm proceeding with caution. However, I really like the part !

I plan to use the chip series. Cheers - Henry

Are they a philips design or one they got from vlsi when they bought them a while back ?

Does anyone have a clue how to get copies of the old vlsi.com docs for their chips ? Local philips rep didn't know.(Philips bought them in =

I've tried the wayback machine

I'm after docs for VY86C7500 an arm 7500 part. Got given copies of docs on a cd but cd is corrupt(unreadable).

Thanks

No it is corrupted, not dirty.

I can't read a single file from it. No scratches on the bottom or top. Tried a few different machines. It is a standard cd format but maybe wasn't recorded properly or no one checked it, ever until me.

Someone behind the Philips scene (or a FAE) might have the ability to get the software for you from the Philips archive. VLSI made a lot for mobile phones. So a hacker...
