I would like to know if there is a way to convert COSMIC function points to lines of code (as you can do with classic function point).

I need to have a measure of how many lines an embedded software developed in C is going to have, I don't have any other metrics available but the measure of the software in cosmic function points.

P.S. if you know a different/better approach to estimate LOC for embedded software I would like to know it.

How about automating your functional size measurement/estimation using ScopeMaster. This will give you an estimated Function Point size, LOC, development costs, schedule, defect potentials and much, much more.

How about analogy based estimation? (taking a similar project or relevant parts of several projects) we use Weighted Micro Function Points extensively for that with pretty decent results: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weighted_Micro_Function_Points
