The lpc1850 was once chosen since it was the device that was applicable to most peripherals and it is the flashless "top model". So for peripherals found only on devices with flash use the top model there; lpc1857. That's the only half good reason I can give. Note that I have also started to use lpc1857 on the mtd driver for the internal flash that I am working on. regards, Joachim Eastwood -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
