SAB-TFBGAxxx Quick Start Guide
This document applies to SAB-TFBGA100, SAB-TFBGA180, and SAB-TFBGA208.
THE SAB-TFBGAxxx WILL NOT WORK WITHOUT A USB-ICP PROGRAMMER!
Figure 1:
SAB-TFGBA180
The SAB-TFBGAxxx is a Socket Adapter Board (SAB) for use with Future Designs USB In-Circuit
Programmer for NXP Semiconductors LPC2K devices. The SAB-TFBGAxxx allows the user to program and
test NXP microcontrollers in TFBGA packages.

If you have not already done so, install the software and configure USB-ICP-LPC2K using the
instructions supplied with that product.
2. Place the SAB-TFBGAxxx on a flat work surface and take note of the PIN A1 indicators.
3. Using your thumb and index finger press straight down on the outer rim of the BGA socket. Carefully
drop the target microcontroller into the slot in the top of the socket. Make sure you have pin A1 on the
microcontroller aligned properly with the indicators.

4. Now gently apply a small amount of pressure on the top of the microcontroller with a free finger or a
nonconductive tool.
5. Release the BGA socket while continuing to hold pressure on the microcontroller.

6. Remove pressure from the microcontroller.
7. Using the supplied Ethernet Patch Cable, connect your USB-ICP to the SAB-TFBGAxxx
8. Connect USB-ICP to an available USB port on your computer.
9. Connect the supplied 4.5V power supply to the SAB-TFBGAxxx. D2 will light up to indicate power
has been applied.
10. Start the Flash Magic software. Configure the settings as shown below:
a. Section 1
i. COM Port: Select the COM used by USB-ICP
ii. Baud Rate: Ignore this setting. It will default to 9600 when you select USB-ICP as your
interface (Item iv below)
iii. Device: Choose your target device (LPC2458 in our example)
iv. Interface: Choose FDI USB-ICP
v. Oscillator Freq. (MHz): Ignore this one too. Flash Magic does not use this value when
you have selected USB-ICP.
b. Section 2
i. Click “Erase all Flash + Code Rd Prot”.
c. Section 3
i. Click
Browse
and select the “Blink.hex” file you downloaded earlier.

d. Section 4
i. Make sure all checkboxes in the “Options” section are NOT checked.
11. Before attempting to Flash your part, it is recommended that you verify that everything is connected and
working properly. The easiest way to do this is to read the device ID. Click ISP and then select Read
Device Signature. If everything is working, you should see the dialog box below with the correct
Device ID for your part (LPC2458 in our example). If you get an “Operation Failed” error or the device
ID reads all F’s you have a problem somewhere.
12. If the Device ID reads correctly, Click Start!
13. Reset the processor by cycling power. LED1 should begin to blink.
