( 8 / 54 )
WARNING
Warning for Installation:
• Do not set this product in water or areas of high humidity. Spilling water or some other liquid into the main unit can cause an unrepairable damage.
Warnings for Use Environment:
• The emulation pod is air-cooled with the ventilation slot. Therefore, do not block the ventilation slot. When heated to high temperatures, the emulation pod may not work properly.
• This equipment is to be used in an environment with a maximum ambient temperature of 35°C. Care should be taken that this temperature is not exceeded.
CAUTION
Caution to Be Taken for Modifying This Product:
• Do not disassemble or modify this product. Disassembling or modifying this product can cause damage. Disassembling and modifying the product will void your warranty.
Cautions to Be Taken for Handling This Product:
• Use caution when handling the main unit. Be careful not to apply a mechanical shock.
• Do not touch the connector pins of the emulator main unit and the target MCU connector pins. Static electricity may damage the internal circuits.
•Do not pull the pod probe by the flexible cable for connecting to the emulator main unit or the flexible cable PCA7733 REV.B for connecting the target system. The cable may cause a break.
• The flexible cable for connecting to the emulator main unit or the flexible cable PCA7733 REV.B for connecting the target system are different from earlier models. The slits make them more flexible. However, excessive flexing or force may break conductors. Figure 1.1 (next page) shows the examples of excessively flexed cables and how to handle them.
•Do not use inch-size screws for this equipment. The screws used in this equipment are all ISO (meter-size) type screws. When replacing screws, use same type screws as equipped before.
( 9 / 54 )
(1) Set the target system on a platform to relax bends
and relieve stress in the board.
(2) The boundary between the firm and flexible parts
of the flexible board does not ready bend. Do not bend it excessively.
When bending the flexible board, keep R to 30 mm or more as shown at left.
Figure 1.1 Note on handling the flexible cable PCA7733 REV.B
( 10 / 54 )
IMPORTANT
Note on Malfunctions in the PC4701 System:
• If the emulator malfunctions because of interference such as external noise, do the following to remedy the trouble.
(1) Press the RESET button on the emulator front panel. (2) If normal operation is not restored after step (1), shut OFF power to the emulator once and then
reactivate it.
Notes on Downloading Firmware:
• Before using this product for the first time, it is necessary to download the dedicated firmware (control software for the emulation pod built into the PC4701). Please note that, to do this, it is necessary to start up the PC4701 in maintenance mode. For firmware download procedures, see "4.2 Downloading Firmware" (page 34). Once the firmware has been downloaded, the product can be used by simply turning on the power.
• Do not shut off the power while downloading the firmware. If this happens, the product will not start up properly. If power is shut off unexpectedly, redownload the firmware.
• Except when a target status error occurs, if the self-check is not completed successfully, there may be trouble with the product. In such case, contact your sales representative.
Notes on Target System:
• For starting up the emulation pod normally, the following are needed.
(1) Connection to the emulator MCU (2) Power to the emulator MCU (Vcc and GND)
• The Vcc pin is connected to the target system to observe the voltage of the target system. Therefore the emulator cannot supply the power to the target system. Design your system so that the target system is powered separately.
• The voltage of the target system should be within the MCU's specified range and between +0.9 and 5.5 V.
•Do not change the voltage of the target system after turning on the power.
(3) Clock to the emulator MCU (4) Processing RESET pin and Vref pin (if the MCU has it)
When debugging with M38000TL2-FPD, use either an open-drain type reset IC or a CR reset circuit. The recommended pull-up value is about 10kΩ. The MCU can be reset by outputting "L" to the target through the reset clip on the M38000TL2-FPD. However, if the reset circuit on the target is an H-output type RESET IC, it cannot be set to "L" and the emulator will not operate properly.
According to the MCU specifications, terminate the Vref pin properly.
• Before powering on your emulator system, check that the host machine, the PC4701, converter board and target system are all connected correctly. Next, turn on the power to each equipment following the procedure below.
(1) Turn ON/OFF the target system and the PC4701 as simultaneously as possible. (2) When the PC4701 and emulator debugger M3T-PD38 start up, check the target status LEDs
on the emulator main unit's front panel to see if this product is ready to operate. (For the target status LEDs on the emulator main unit's front panel when starting up the
PC4701, refer to "4.1 (3) LED Display When the PC4701 Starts Up Normally" on page 33.)
( 11 / 54 )
IMPORTANT
Note on Differences between Actual MCU and Emulator:
•Operations of the emulator differ from those of mask MCUs as listed below.
(1) Reset condition (2) Initial values of internal resource data at power-on (3) Interrupt stack pointer after releasing reset (4) Internal memory (ROM and RAM) capacities, etc.
Therefore, be sure to evaluate your system with an evaluation MCU. Before starting mask production, evaluate your system and make final confirmation with an ES (Engineering Sample) version MCU.
Notes on Watchdog Function:
• The MCU's watchdog timer can be used only while programs are being executed. To use it otherwise, disable the watchdog timer.
• If the reset circuit of the target system has a watchdog timer, disable it when using the emulator.
Notes on Internal Resources of MCU:
• In the MCU's internal RAM area, single-step and break operations cannot be performed.
• When using the 38000 Series emulator MCU, note that addresses $FFFE and $FFFF cannot be used. When using any MCU other than the 38000 Series, you cannot use addresses $8000 and $8001.
Note on Software Breaks:
• Software breaks generate break interruptions by forcibly inserting a BRK instruction "00h" instead of an instruction code. Therefore, when referencing the result of a trace in bus mode, "00h" is displayed for the instruction fetch address where a software break is set.
( 12 / 54 )
IMPORTANT
Note on Interruption:
• While the program is paused, interrupts are made by running a selected address loop. For this reason, timers and other functions are not stopped while the program is paused (including while debug programs are running).
If an interrupt request is generated at any time other than when the program is being executed (while the user program is paused or a debug program is running), the interrupt is not generated because the emulator disables interrupts. However, the interrupt request bit is not cleared.
Notes on MAP References and Settings:
•When starting up the M38000TL2-FPD, initial MAP settings are as follows.
0000h--3FFFh: EXT 4000h--FFFFh: INT (emulation memory available)
•Be sure to set the internal RAM of MCU and SFR area to "EXT".
•When the RAM area of the target MCU is larger than the RAM in the emulator MCU, set the marginal area to "INT".
Notes on Stack Area:
• With this product, a maximum 3 bytes of the user stack is consumed as a work area.
• If the user stack area does not have enough area, do not use areas which cannot be used as stack (SFR area, RAM area which stores data, or ROM area) as work area. Using areas like this is a cause of user program crashes and destabilized emulator control. Therefore, ensure the +3 bytes maximum capacity used by the user program as the user stack area.
•With this product, the address listed in MCU file is used as stack area after the reset is released.
Note on When the Emulator Debugger Ends:
• To restart the emulator debugger after it ends, always shut power to the emulator module off once and then on again.
Notes on Connecting the Target System:
•When connecting the PCA7733 REV.B flexible board and the probe direction converter board, be careful not to forcibly press the top of the J1 part of the PCA7733 REV.B flexible board. (The J1 connector is guaranteed for only 20 insertion/removal iterations.)
• Especially be careful not to insert the J1 connector in the wrong direction.
