Pack installer lack of support for NXP LPC43xx

Hello all,

I am migrating from Keil IDE uVision version 4 to version 5. I am trying to create a new project using the NXP LPC4357 target micro-controller. This was listed as an option when selecting the target device for this new project with version 4. But alas.....it is not listed as an option when creating a new project using version 5. It is listed in the Device Database (File > Device Database) in version 5, but when exploring the device availability in the Pack Installer, I have discovered that it is not listed. I did, however find the LPC18xx listed.

I am asking for some assistance to point me in the right direction. I prefer not to create a custom target. I expect that the devices supported in Keil IDE uVision version 4 to be available to me (somehow) when using the Keil IDE uVision version 5.

I did search the forum for help but did not see anything specific to this issue.

Does anyone know how to add this target micro-controller to the available list of devices when creating a new project?????

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Rob

  • Concerning LPC43xx support:
    I also have installed the legacy pack for uVision 5. I can't seem to get Manage Run-Time to install components (resolve issues). I need middleware, as a trial I selected USB device CDC and get errors.

    What are my options? Should I install version 4.7.3 and does it have a similar run-time manager? Or would I try to get OpenLPC USBlib to work?

    Thanks,
    Kevin

  • Hello Kevin,

    if you are using the legacy packs, you need to use the old flow from uVision4.x. This means, you can neither use the Run-Time Environment nor the new Middleware. You will need to stick to the old RL-ARM middleware, which can be found in the same places as before. Also, use exmaples from the C:\Keil\ARM\Boards\Keil\MCB4300\RL... directory.

    Kind regards,

    Christopher

    PS: Using MDK v4.73 is also an option.
