IN-CIRCUIT EMULATOR FOR INFINEON C505CA CAN MICROCONTROLLERS

Moorpark, CA – April 9, 2001 – Signum Systems, manufacturer of embedded system development tools, has announced full emulation support for the Infineon SABC505CA family of microcontrollers. PODX505CA in combination with Signum’s USP-51A family In-Circuit Emulator (ICE) provides completely transparent emulation of the C505CA at the device’s maximum clock speed of 20 MHz.

The USP-51A emulator base unit supports all the 8051 silicon vendors including Atmel, Atmel Wireless & Microcontroller, Dallas Semiconductor, Infineon, Intel, OKI, NXP (Philips), TDK and Texas Instruments. With the PODX505CA, USP-51A emulator is able to support all SABC505CA family devices equipped with CAN 2.0 interface, 10-bit A/D converter, 1K x 8 XRAM memory, 32K x 8 OTP code memory (or external 64K x 8 code memory) in addition to the standard 8051 peripherals. The emulator is equipped with complex breakpoint logic, including event counters and sequencers. It also has a 32K deep and 80 bit wide real time trace buffer with time stamp that allows pre- and post-capture filtering as well as measuring execution times with 100ns accuracy.

The emulator includes Chameleon Debugger, which runs under Windows® 95, 98, NT and 2000. Chameleon Debugger supports all popular 8051 C compilers at the source level with the latest advanced software debugging and verification tools such as, variable pop-ups, drag & drop, pass-points, performance analysis, coverage analysis, code scope and register breakpoints. Chameleon Debugger also supports remote debugging via TCP/IP compatible networks which allows sharing of the emulator with any workstation on the local (LAN) or Wide Area Network (WAN). USP-51A and PODX505CA are available now starting at $5,295 and $1,495, respectively.
