IN-CIRCUIT EMULATOR SUPPORTS BOTH INTEL AND DALLAS MICROCONTROLLERS

Moorpark, Calif. – July 20, 1996 – Signum Systems, a leading manufacturer of embedded system development tools has released USP-51A - a new in-circuit emulator supporting both Intel and Dallas 8051-family microcontrollers. The USP-51A emulator, in combination with the POD-320 emulation pod provides completely transparent emulation of Dallas Semiconductor 80C320 and 80C323 devices at clock speeds up to 33 MHz. The emulator is equipped with complex breakpoint logic, including event counters and sequencers. It also has a 32K sample deep, 80 bit wide real time trace buffer with time stamp and 128K RAM. The unit works with Windows-based Chameleon-51 debugger or DOS-based emulator interface software (EMU-51).

Chameleon-51 runs under Windows 3.1, Windows 95 an Windows NT. It supports all major C-51 and PL/M-51 compilers at the source level with the latest advanced software debugging and verification tools like: variable Quick Watch, Pass-points, Performance Analysis, Coverage Analysis, and Register Breakpoints. ESDS-51 supports remote debugging via IP-compatible networks. Remote debugging allows an Chameleon-51 session to be accessed over the network using a standard telnet client for co-debugging and customer support.

Prices for the EMU-51A start at $5,295.00, prices for the POD-320 start at $895.00.
