SC16IS752 anyone?
I've designed a board around the Phillips SC16IS752 dual I2C/serial bridge chip. However, I'm having problems getting the thing to set up properly.

Embedded GUI Code
I am on a search for an embedded GUI / Windowing / 2-D system. I would like the source code (in ANSI-C) included in addition to basic drawing mechanisms (circle, dot, line, rectangle).

Parallax Propeller
I haven't heard anyone talking about the Propeller since earlier in the year when it had just been released so I'd like to share my impression of it with anyone who is interested. BTW, I have been heavily into LPC21xx ARM chips the last year or so and this is something completely different. I received a Para... 21 Sep 2006 02:29

Favorite Philips/NXP LPC21xx websites/forums?
Hi, I've recently started development with a Philips LPC2103. I know Atmel has a site, AT91.com, which I found useful for AT91SAM stuff. I'm looking for suggestions or recommendations on websites/forums that discuss using the LPC21xx parts. I did the Google search already but ended up at sites that arch... 24 Sep 2006 12:51
