LPC2388 vs. LPC2387 - any known differences in setup?

Hi everyone.
I was working with an MCB2388-Eval-Board (lpc2388),
and I was downgrading to my own pcb with a lpc2387.
I realized problems with my board, but at this time now,
I don't want to give any code. Later, if necessary.

As far as I know, all "lpc23xx"-devices use the same headers.
For sure my pins and the layout are correct, I checked it several times.

**
First question is: are there any known differences in the basic-setup
from lpc2388 to lpc2387? like CLK-init, UART-init,.... (the uart0 is my
troublemaker, ...so I dont trust my CCLK, PLL and this stuff.)
I expect: no.

second question: are there any "you-have-to-set-by-first-programming"-fuses??
(if so, I really should read more about my architecture, I know)
I expect: no.
**

I am debugging at the moment, so my question is only about known
differences. (Perhaps it has a quite simple solution.)
And yes, I got the manual. And I read a lot ;-)
Thank you very much, I am happy for any idea.

  • "I don't remember any difference."
    This is quite important to me. Thank you very much.

    Im checking the GPIOs at the moment. They are working!!
    --> So CLK, PLL, 72MHz, etc. is ok.
    (maybe I had a short yesterday, well, I willnot find out...)

    I will setup my code from the beginning, and check each single
    change. I really thought, its a one-day-procedure.
    Thank you
    with regards

    PS:
    TX is not toggeling.
    UART is working in the old source-code, it should be powered.
    and yes, I should look into the registers... never done. I will keep that in mind.

  • Hi,
    just as a short reply,
    my software is working in its old unchanged version.
    What I forgot: the LCD has to be installed.
    The source-code hangs up (waiting for a busy-answer!) without LCD.
    %&"§$% ;-)

    Maybe there were further hardware bugs..
    but I think I just should have assembled everything at once and should have press "load".
    Everything would be fine then.

    Thank you, for your advice!
    with regards.
