PROM Debugger Overview

Product
Overview
Avocet's
Cactus Logic low cost ROM emulator, the Integrated Debugging
System/LC, provides a PC-based environment for 8-bit embedded
systems firmware debugging and testing.
The IDS user interface is patterned after Borland's Turbo
C and Turbo Pascal, combines the functions of a source and
assembly level real-time, in circuit debugger, editor and
PROM emulator and works with your compiler.
You
control the debugging, editing, compiling and downloading
functions using simple keystrokes or mouse clicks along with
pull-down command menus and dialog boxes.
The
IDS/LC currently supports versions of the 8051, Z80/Z180,
6502, 6809, 8085, and 80C251 8-bit microprocessors. See processor
list for the specefic processors that are supported.
Benefits
Our
familiar Borland Turbo C-like programming environment is easy
to learn and use. The IDS commands and screens are identical
regardless of the CPU type being used.
Source/assembly
code debugging with symbolic variables displayed in the watch
window increases debugging speed and efficiency since you
can step through the source while observing the effect on
the variables.
The
faster debug, edit, compile, debug cycle time in our integrated
environment saves you time. You can invoke the editor, debugger,
and your compiler or MAKE utility with a single keystroke.
The
IDS quickly and easily connects to your target microprocessor
and PC. Just plug it into the target system PROM socket and
your PC printer port.
Development
sytem costs are lower because additional adapters or pods
are not required for different microprocessors.
No
need to spend time programming PROMs since the IDS includes
a 128 Kbyte PROM emulator.
The
Target Interface Unit is small and lightweight. Ideal for
in the field use. The host PC can be far as 15 feet away from
the target.
Features
Works with your compilers and MAKE utilities to give powerful
source and assembly level debugging.
Powerful
source and assembly level breakpoints are simple to set.
1,000
Breakpoints
Assign
breakpoints to groups which can be enabled or disabled by
other breakpoints
Log
processor and watch data to disk file
Perform
simulated input or output
Break
after a specified number of "hits"
Complete
control over program execution with Run, Reset, Run to cursor,
Step, Animate and Stop commands
Built
in text editor with extensive keystroke and menu editing commands
for cursor movement, insert/ delete, search and block operations.
Setups
and windows are automatically saved and restored.
One
Target Interface Unit works with all supported microprocessors.
No costly adapters are needed.
Optional
Logic Trigger Module and adapters for 8051 processors. See
Accessory data sheet.
Command
input from keyboard or mouse using pull-down menus and pop-up
dialog boxes.
Includes
a demo target system board to help you verify the operation
of the IDS software and TIU hardware during installation and
set-up.
Real
Time operation with no additional wait states.
Movable,
re-sizable windows for editing multiple source files and displaying:
CPU registers and and disassembled code, Special Function
Registers, Program memory listing, Internal RAM listing, External
RAM listing Output and Watch windows.
COMMAND
MENUS
The command Menus control the operation of the IDS and thy
can be activated with either the keyboard or the mouse.
Hot-keys are provided for most commands.
