M68KIT912DG128 : Development Tools

 

The M68KIT912DG128 incorporates the Evaluation Board (EVB) with the Serial Debug Interface (SDIL12) to give the designer a low cost, non-intrusive in-circuit debugging solution. The M68KIT912DG128 is used to design, debug, and evaluate code for the 68HC912DG128 MCU. Also, the M68KIT912DG128 can be used to program the on-chip flash. By providing the essential MCU timing and I/O circuitry, the EVB simplifies user evaluation of prototype hardware and software.

M68KIT912DG128 Features

The M68KIT912DG128 comprises three main components.

  • Evaluation Board: The board is a multilayered printed circuit board that provides interface and power connections. NOTE: The board can be ordered seperately from the kit (M68EVB912DG128).
  • The M68EVB912DG128 includes these additional features:

    • +3 to +5-volt DC operation
    • RS-232C interface
    • CAN interface
    • 60 kilobytes MCU internal FLASH EEPROM
    • Four operational modes:
      • EVB
      • JUMP-EEPROM
      • POD-BDM
      • BOOTLOAD
    • header connectors for access to the MCU's I/O and bus lines
    • on-board prototype area for customized interfacing with the MCU
    • low-voltage inhibit protection
    • full support for either dumb terminal or host computer terminal interface
    • file transfer capability from a host computer, allowing off-board code generation

  • Serial Debug Interface (M68SDIL12): Motorola's SDI is a serial in-circuit debugger that uses the background debug mode (BDM), allowing quick verification and updating of embedded software applications. When used with compatible debug software, the SDI allows users to view and modify applications on the fly reducing development time and speeding time to market. A user connects the SDI in-line between the computer's serial port and the target system's BDM connector. The tool is available in 5-volt-only and low-voltage (2.7/5.5-volt) versions. NOTE: The serial debug interface can be ordered seperately from the kit (M68SDIL12).
  • MCUez: MCUez is a user-friendly development environment used to develop applications in assembly and to debug assembly and C applications based on Motorola's 8- and 16-bit microcontrollers. The MCUez toolset is designed to leverage the speed and efficient memory utilization provided by assembly language with a smart linker. Bundled with Motorola development hardware, the MCUez development toolset includes a configuration shell, assembler, linker, and debugger.

M68KIT912DG128 System Requirements

The M68KIT912DG128 evaluation board requires:

  • RS-232C compatible terminal or a 386-based or higher host PC capable of running an
  • RS-232C compatible dumb terminal emulator.
  • a serial communication port
  • RS-232C compatible, 6-pin BDM target cable
  • +3 to +5-volt DC @ 100 mA (maximum) external power supply
