Hi,
I want to select a new ARM controller for my project. I am thinking of going for LPC2103 which is having 32KB of FLASH and 8KB of SRAM. My code size will be less than 32KB, but I am not sure if the SRAM of size 8KB be enough. So, I have following queries.
1. What are the criteria for for selecting the controller with correct SRAM? 2. Do the manufacturers take care of this? (because I have observed that as the FLASH size on a controller increases, SRAM size on the controller also increases) 3. What is SRAM exactly used for on the controllers? (Building cache memory is one of the uses I know. What are the other uses?)

1. What are the criteria for for selecting the controller with correct SRAM?
use the one from the series you intend to use with the largest memory for development, THEN decide.
