PIN MUX Tool for LM3S micros

I can see, you now are supporting your LM4F controllers, with a Pin configuration tool.

Why on earth haven't you developed the same, much needed tool, for your LM3S controllers?

It is very complicated to configure the pins on these devices so a configuration tool will be much appreciated.

Thanks / Peter Breinholm

Greetings Peter,
"Why on Earth?"
Because LM's are no longer manufactured nor supported. Even hard to purchase these days...
Not being rude, but actually trying to give some advice: "why on Earth" don't you replace your MCU for a similar TM4C part? Particularly considering that the very moment when you need a PinMux tool is the moment when you are designing your hardware - so just use the "modern part".
Cheers
Bruno

Five years old question, Bruno?

Hi Petrei,

I have no clue why this appeared on the first page of the forum on my browser this morning! Really sorry - my reply makes no sense in the actual context!

PS: Note to self: take a look at the post date when the question subject appears to be outdated!

Hello Bruno,

Did you change the forum view to "by reply count"?

No. It still shows "by date" and "descending". The 4 pinned topics are there, and the most recently "touched" ones come right after. Can't remember anything to justify that, and I wasn't particularly searching for anything this morning.
Oh well, computer things...
