26 Development Environment

SONIX provides an Embedded ICE emulator system to offer SN8F5708 firmware development. The

platform is an in-circuit debugger and controlled by Keil C51 IDE software on Microsoft Windows

platform. The platform includes SN-Link3, SN8F5708 Starter-kit and Keil C51 IDE software to build a

high-speed, low cost, powerful and multi-task development environment including emulator,

debugger and programmer. To execute emulation is like run real chip because the emulator circuit

integrated in SN8F5708 to offer a real development environment.

Debug Interface Hardware

The circuit below demonstrates the appropriate method to connect microcontroller’s SWAT pin

and SN-Link3 Adapter II.

Before starting debug, microcontroller’s power (VDD) must be switched off. Connect the SWAT to

both 6

th and 8th pins of SN-Link, and respectively link VDD and VSS to 7th pin and 2nd pin. A

handshake procedure would be automatically started by turn on the microcontroller, and SN-Link’s

green LED (Run) indicates the success of connection (refer SN8F5000 Debug Tool Manual for

further detail).
