Development Support (Continued)
iceMASTER EVALUATION PROGRAMMING UNIT (EPU)
The iceMASTER EPU-COP888GG is a PC based in-circuit
simulation tool to support the feature family COP8 products
See Figure 21 for configuration
The simulation capability is a very low cost means of evalua-
tion the general COP8 architecture In addition the EPU has
programming capability with added adapters for program-
ming the whole COP8 product family of OTP and EPROM
products The product includes the following features
 Non-real-time in-circuit simulation Program overlay
memory is PC resident instructions are downloaded over
RS-232 as executed Approximate performance is
20 kHz
 Includes a 40 pin DIP cable adapter Other target pack-
ages are not supported All processor I O pins are ca-
bled to the application development environment
 Full 32 kbyte of loadable programmable space that over-
lays (replaces) the on-chip ROM or EPROM On-chip
RAM and I O blocks are used directly or recreated as
necessary
 On-chip timer and watch-dog execution are not well syn-
chronized to the instruction simulation
 100 frames of synchronous trace memory The display
can be HLL source (e g C source) assembly or mixed
The most recent history prior to a break is available in the
trace memory
 Up to eight software configured break points uses INTR
instruction which is modestly intrusive
 Common look-feel debugger software across all Meta-
Link products only supported features are selectable
 Tool set integrated interactive symbolic debugger sup-
ports both assembler (COFF and C Compiler ( COD)
SDK linked object formats
 Instruction by instruction memory register changes dis-
played when in single step operation
 Processor specific symbolic display of registers and bit
level assignments configured from master model file
 Halt Idle mode notification Restart requires special han-
dling
 Programming menu supports full product line of program-
mable OTP and EPROM COP8 products Only a 40 ZIF
socket is available on the EPU unit Adapters are avail-
able for other part package configurations
 Integral wall mount power supply provides 5V and devel-
ops the required V_PP to program parts
 Includes a copy of COP8-DEV-IBMA assembler linker
