The DEMO9S08SC4 is a low-cost development system designed for
demonstrating, evaluating, and debugging the Freescale MC9S08SC4
microcontroller. P&E’s Embedded Multilink circuitry on the DEMO9S08SC4
board allows the processor on the DEMO9S08SC4 to be debugged and
programmed via USB from the PC. In addition, the demo board can be
powered using the USB bus.
1.2Package Contents
The DEMO9S08SC4 package includes the following items:
•DEMO9S08SC4 Demo board
•USB Cable
•Freescale Warranty Card
1.3Supported Devices
The DEMO9S08SC4 supports the MC9S08SC4CTG device.
1.4Recommended Materials On DEMO9S08SC4 Resources CD
•Links to Freescale documentation, P&E Discussion Forums, and
DEMO9S08SC4 FAQs.
1.5Handling Precautions
Take care to handle the package contents, including the DEMO9S08SC4
board, in a manner such as to prevent electrostatic discharge.
2HARDWARE FEATURES
The DEMO9S08SC4 is a demonstration and development system for
Freescale’s MC9S08SC4 microcontroller. Application development is quick
and easy using P&E’s Embedded Multilink circuitry and the included software
tools and examples. An optional BDM port is provided to allow use of an
external BDM interface such as P&E’s Cyclone PRO automated programmer
or USB Multilink. The USB Multilink is functionally comparable to the
DEMO9S08SC4’s Embedded Multilink circuitry.
Note:The DEMO board’s onboard Embedded Multilink circuitry is intended to
function with the onboard processor and any daughter cards that may be
included. It cannot be used to communicate with other devices.

2.2On-Board Logic Analyzer
The DEMO9S08SC4 board has a built-in 2-channel logic analyzer which may
be used to display captured data in real-time on a host PC. The logic analyzer
channels (IN0/IN1) are connected to the PTA1 and PTB5 signals on the
DEMO9S08SC4 board by default via the J14 jumpers. The channels may be
connected to any of the processor pins by wire jumpers (not included).
The DEMO9S08SC4 Logic Analyzer Utility, included in the Embedded
Multilink Toolkit on the accompanying CD-ROM, displays the logic analyzer
signals on a PC.
2.3On-Board Virtual Serial Port
The DEMO9S08SC4 board has a built-in virtual serial port which may be
connected to the SC4 processor’s SCI RXD/TXD. This allows certain PC
applications to be able to connect in a serial fashion to the microcontroller
without the actual use of serial port hardware.
The Terminal Window Utility, included in the Embedded Multilink Toolkit on the
accompanying CD-ROM, is a generic serial port utility which works with the
virtual serial port or actual serial port hardware.
3SYSTEM SETUP
3.1Overview
P&E’s Embedded Multilink driver is required to operate the DEMO9S08SC4
using a PC. The Embedded Multilink driver should be installed with the
CodeWarrior Development Studio software or from the DEMO9S08SC4
Resources in the CD-ROM before the PC is connected to the
DEMO9S08SC4.
3.2Operating System Requirements
The following are the resources required to run the CodeWarrior Development
Studio and the DEMO9S08SC4:
•A PC-compatible system running Windows 2000, Windows XP, or
Windows Vista
•128MB of available system RAM, and 1GB of available hard disk

space
•A CD-ROM drive for software installation
•A USB port
3.3Software Setup
3.3.1Installing CodeWarrior Development Studio
To install the CodeWarrior Development Studio, insert the CodeWarrior CD
into your computer’s CD-ROM drive. A start-up window will automatically
appear. Select CodeWarrior Installation and follow the on-screen instructions.
3.3.2Installing P&E Resources
Use the DEMO9S08SC4 Resources CD-ROM to access and install P&E
resources for the DEMO9S08SC4. These materials are not required for
operation. The support materials contained on the DEMO9S08SC4
Resources CD-ROM are listed in Section 1.4 - Recommended Materials On
DEMO9S08SC4 Resources CD.
3.4Quick Startup
Only a few steps are required to get the DEMO9S08SC4 up and running:
Step 1.If you do not have CodeWarrior Development Studio version 6.0
installed on your computer, please install it using the
accompanying CD-ROM. Additional information regarding
CodeWarrior can be found at www.freescale.com.
Step 2.Remove the DEMO9S08SC4 demonstration board from its anti-
static pouch.
Step 3.Connect the USB cable from your computer to the
DEMO9S08SC4 demonstration board. Depending on your
operating system, you may need to follow steps to install the USB
driver from the DEMO9S08SC4 Resources CD-ROM. Once the
USB cable is connected properly the green USB LED on the
DEMO9S08SC4 should illuminate.
Step 4.Turn on the DEMO9S08SC4 power switch (K1). The red Power
LED should illuminate.

Step 5.[Will be updated with Quick Start Guide code operations]
Step 6.[Will be updated with DEMO code] Optionally, you may run the
Logic Analyzer Application available in the Embedded Multilink
toolkit on the CD. This PC-based application graphs the IN0 and
IN1 signals on the DEMO9S08SC4 board. If both J14 jumpers are
installed, IN0 shows PTA1 and IN1 shows PTB5. Push button S1
and turn the potentiometer to change these signals. This
application may also be found at:
The DEMO9S08SC4 may be connected to a PC through a USB port.
Connection steps are listed below in typical order:
1. Install the required software, as described in the previous section.
2. Make sure jumpers 1&2 for PWR_SEL (J2) are installed.
3. Plug the USB cable A-M connector into a free USB port of the PC.
