LPC82x support for GPS

Hi.. I am planning to use LPC824 microcontroller.It having 32 kb on chip flash program memory and 8 kb of on chip RAM. Does it sufficient for RTOS . The thing is i am going to send the GPS data.So memory is sufficient?

  • >>I have processed and sent GPS data with 4kB code space and 512 byte RAM.

    Indeed, NMEA sentences were designed to be used by 8-bit CPUs from the 1980's, the processors doing the GPS functionality, were pretty high end for there time, I've got a unit that basically had the horsepower of an ATARI ST crammed in it, and others the horsepower of a 33 MHz 486DX PC.

    Step#1 Here would seem to be to know how to code in C, you don't have to code for an embedded platform to understand the complexity of code to do a specific task. Do it on a PC.
