New Compact In-Circuit Emulator for Renesas M16C and M32C series

Full ICE-functionality at affordable price

Closing the gap between the high-end ICE and the low-cost evaluation boards running a remote debugger MSC now offers a new compact emulator for M16C and M32C series from Renesas that can offer full functionality that is needed for hardware and software development, such as real-time trace and hardware breakpoints.

The emulator main unit comes in a significantly reduced size, compared with conventional emulator systems. The product package includes not only an emulator main unit and target connectors but also the new IDE HEW4 including an evaluation version of M3T-NC30WA C-compiler, Assembler and Linker. The evaluation license offers full functions for a 60 days trial time, then limited to 64k Linker output.
The compact emulator can be connected to the user system by equipping with a converter board for the target MCU. MSC also provides a set package that include the compact emulator and a converter board for the device and package you need.

Features:

  • M16C series: 20MHz (at 3.0 to 5.0V), 10MHz (at 2.7 to 3.0V), single chip mode
  • M32C series: 32MHz (at 4.2 to 5.5V), 24MHz (at 3.0 to 5.5V), single chip and external mode
  • Target system voltage 2.7 to 5.5V
  • Basic debugging functions: Download, software brake, program execution/stop (allows free-run execution and execution supporting S/W breaks), memory reference/setting (reference/setting C-variables, run-time execution), register reference/setting, disassemble display, C-level debugging
  • 64 software breakpoints
  • 2 hardware breakpoints
  • Trace range 64K cycles, 5 different modes
  • Execution time measurement
  • PC Interface USB 1.1, Full-speed
