Hi everyone:
We have developed a custom board based on LPC1788 and we have written a firmware which is 450 kbytes long. Here in the engineering office we have our lpcxpresso with unlimited license but we need upload code in production sector and there is non unlimited license. Is there any way to upload code using LPC-Link without an unlimited license? (We don´t want debug code, just upload the code).

thanks!

Does anyone know something about this?



Just create a hex file and use Interface: SWD over Link2. No restrictions...

I've been looking for information about LPC-Link2 and what you have suggested seems to be the best option. Have you used flashMagic with LPC-Link2? Do you know if there is any restriction about code size?  Does anyone know something about this?
Regards!

Well buy an Lpc-link2 then. They are about $15. You've probably wasted several times that already!

According to the FlashMagic release notes, it does support programming using LPC-Link2:

Quote:
v9.30
- Added support for standalone LPC-Link2 for USB to SWD programming.




However, to use Flash Magic in a production environment, you have to purchase a license...

Mysepp:
We are able to use flashMagic but it is too slow, it takes about 8 minutes each load.

Must it be over LPC-Link or is perhaps uploading via ISP/serial port (via USB) a solution?
Look for FlashMagic.
