EA LPC4088 HDK Serial (mbed serial port) stopped after a while.
Hi,
This program
Import programLPC4088test
sdram and cdc,hdk serial test program for EA4088 mbed. HDK Serial stopped after a while, but CDC Serial and LED HeartBeat is alive.
Last commit 06 Oct 2013 by 
fuyuno sakura
is test that allocate heap memory on sdram and output message.
Memory allocation is OK, but message from HDK (mbed) USB serial port was stopped after a while. I added "USBSerial(USBDevice ,CDC)", in order to compare, but USB CDC Serial works well.
I wrote a bad code?
Does someone see the same problem?
Thank you.
P.S. When this problem occured, The message from the program can be received by the external TTL-USB Serial Converter connected to Pin42(HDK Serial TX).

We have tested your application on a couple of our boards and cannot reproduce your problem. We have a couple of questions.
- Do you see this behavior also with other applications (e.g. a simple app which only prints messages in a loop)?
- Is your PC running Windows, Linux or Mac (which version)?
- Have you tested on another PC?

Thank you for answering.

Yes. Same problem occured.

are stopped sending message via VCOM after a while.
And I noticed reverse direction (PC->mbed HDK) sending with typing keyboard, Blue HDK LED is blink.

This mbed's firmware is "LPC4088test_ledonly" version which written in windows machine.
I get confused...... I will retry later.
I found the procedure which this issue occurs in my Windows Machine.
1)Write Firmware (sending with HDK VCP)
2)Plug out mbed
2)Re-Plug in mbed
3)Start Monitering HDK VCOM with Tera Term
4)Open a Mbed drive with Explorer
5)After access the mbed drive, the message form VCP serial stop.
posted by 08 Oct 20135) After access the mbed drive, the message form VCP serial stop.
When accessing the mbed drive do you mean writing a file to the drive or is it enough to just access the drive? Writing a file will restart the HDK.

I only opened the folder (mbed drive). I didn't write (drag n drop) a file.
posted by 08 Oct 2013I am getting the exact same errors - and I seem to have narrowed it down to be a problem on the new Haswell Mac laptops (tried it on a new Pro 2013 and Air 2013 that shows the problem - and an old Pro and Air (pre-2013) that works just fine.
At the moment, I am trying to modify the kext "driver" files in /System/Library/Extensions to grab my particular VID/PID and force some USB serial driver/module. My guess:
1. the new macs use a new USB3 chip that - for some reason - is not compatible with the serial devices I have tried (google gives many examples of the same problem with e.g. Macbook Air 2013 and other devices)
2. the new macs are just more strict in the software so one needs to be 100% compliant with the USB CDC profile (somehow)
.. these are just guesses... digging further.
