Hello friends,

I am trying to program the LPC4370 controller using DFU programmaer. I am trying to download program code to Internal ROM (EEPROM) of the microcontroller. But when I do that I get error message "PROGRAM CYCLE ERROR". Can anybody please help me regarding this.

I am using Keil compiler for programming.

I have attached the scree shot of the DFU programmer.

Please help me regarding this.

Ok Thank you so much. Yes I misunderstood the manual. Now I'll interface SPIFI flash memory and try again.

You must have misunderstood the manual.

There is a boot ROM in the chip. This is ROM and is impossible for you to change.
For a flashless part, such as the LPC4370, you have to use external flash to store your code. There is an alternative of booting from USB using DFU, where code is downloaded to internal RAM - but you need a host connected to USB so that it can dfu-boot your device.

Maybe you want to use one of the parts with internal flash, such as the LPC4357?

Hi,

I read from user manual that for flashless controller, boot code can be store in the internal ROM memory and the ARM processor will start its code execution from this memory. So how do we do that? Can you please guide me on this. Do we need external memory to download and run code?

You cannot program code into the EEPROM. Even if you could, there is no way for you to run from there.

As LPC4370 is flashless, you either run from RAM, SPIFI or external memory.
