IN-CIRCUIT EMULATOR FOR DALLAS 80C310, 8xC520 AND 8xC530

Moorpark, CA – August 2, 1996 – Signum Systems, a leading manufacturer of embedded system development tools has released a new emulation pod for Dallas Semiconductors’ 80C310, 8xC520 and 8xC530 microcontrollers. The POD-X520 pod in combination with Signum’s USP-51A in-circuit emulator provides completely transparent emulation at clock speeds up to 33MHz. The USP-51A in circuit emulator supports both Intel and Dallas versions of the 8051 microcontroller family. 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 Embedded Systems Development Studio (ESDS-51) or DOS-based emulator interface software (EMU-51).

ESDS-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 ESDS-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-X520 start at $1,195.00
