why is the support for ARM diabollically bad

Tom Bulloch

As a student being forced to learn the LPC21xx microcontrollers as part of my degree, I have found getting information and help extremely poor.

Everything points you in the direction of the data sheet/ user manual, but the reason Im looking for help else where is because Im not getting what I need from the manual. How backwards is that!

Also when you post a thread on this site no one gets back to you. Does anyone actually run the site? and does anyone actually reply to technical questions that actually may help others at a later time? I think not. I think Ive got a better chance of recieving a reply from this rant!

I think ARM and Keil should be ashamed and take a leaf out of Microchips book, as the help avaialable for the many devices they supply is vast!

Rant over

    Actually, I think that this forum is very good to find some answers, provided that:

    • Issues are correctly explained by OP
    • OP did try to solve the issue himself before and he is trying to find a solution for a struggle during the implementation.
    • Question asked are punctual and not too over general.

    There are some very experienced and clever people contributing to this forum (I don't include myself on that group) and if you are patient and polite you will get some very valuable and helpful input from them.
