Well, this does not make sense to me since the code i am trying to load is supposed to be the same that came with the board (and i saw it working perfectly when i first switched the board on).
Do anyone have any proven “Hello world” like program (and compiled with gcc) for this board so that i can play with it?
Which revision of the board do you have? I have both the first one (green board) and the newer revision B (red board) with MMC/SD card slot on the back, and there are alot of differences. It might be that the same test program can’t be run on the new board since at least in my case the flash differs. On my older card I have Intel TE28F320 C3TD70 and on the new one Intel TE28F160 C3BD70. The links from the LPC-E2294 page here at sparkfun still goes to old information with the old schematics from the first revision of the board. I can’t find any schematics or testprogram for the new revision on olimex.com either.
Mine is revision B. You´re right, there has been a lot of changes on this board that are not shown on the schematics or documentation provided by Olimex.
I first tried compiling an eCos build for this board since it was my intention to use it in my project. Since it did not work, i came after the example program on the manufacturer´s site which unfortunately appears not to run on the board as well.
Well, judging by the lack of support and weak documentation i think i will have to switch to any other supplier. Maybe i will be happier with one of Phytec´s boards.
I have procured the LPCE2294 Rev B board. I am also facing the same problem.I cannot afford another board (Phytec’s), since I am a student. I have to some how manage with the current one. Can you suggest me some other alternative solution to this problem?
i compiled an eCos build provided by Sergei Gavrikov (http://sgs.gomel.by/sg/index.html) which was supposed to run on the Rev. B board (except for the different ethernet controller) but it aparently did not work as well. So i got stuck.
I think the best option is if someone else who has this board and has sucessfully compiled and run any program, to provide it so that you can adopt it as an starting point.
Try googling the web and possibly you will get a link to some source code people usually exchange in forums (i will try this too when i have some time).
