Hi to everybody and thanks for your time and effort. I already posted to the Zilog support, but they are not answering me. And I think that if anybody would ever post a reply to this thread it could possibly be useful to somebody else too. I'm developing a software with RZK and ZTP (both version 2.1.0) with ZDS II version 4.11 for a Zilog eZ80 processor. I'm facing failures during code e...

Hello everyone, I'm very new to embedded systems, and debugging them. Im teaching myself and learning a lot on the way. I'm having some trouble with the wiggler, and macraigor has been less than helpful (dont blame them, I bought mine secondhand so they dont have much incentive). I can use the OCD Commander software just fine, but I'd like a way to download larger portions of memory ...

I would like to build my own programmer for Microchip PICs. There are many schematics on the Internet available but I can't seem to find exactly what I want. What I would like is something that provides all (or most) of the following functions: * Can program PIC18 family of devices (or all of the major PIC families if possible) * In-circuit programming (not debugging): the electronics us...

After getting my feet wet with a small photovore robot, now i want to experiment some more. Previously I was using a crude programmer that i built myself, but i'd really like some debugging features. Sparkfun has the olimex PIC-ICD2 ( a drop in replacement for the Microchip In-Circuit-Debugger 2 (ICD2)) for about $95.. Does anyone have any experience with this product? Does it work as...

Hi All, I have written a CAN driver for star12 controller. And I do have some periodic frames for transmission. I am using not any commercial RTOS but I do have created my own scheduler for the scheduling different tasks.

Hello all. I am running IAR embedded workbench software debugger through a J-Link connector to a TI TMS470. I am getting an error, "Failed to read current instruction" in a J-Link pop-up window when I try stepping through the code. After this, it will not let me continue through the rest of the code. I tried debugging in Simulator mode and I do not get this error. Has anybody ever encoun...

I've been programming in C for the best part of a decade now but it's only within the last year that I've really started doing embedded systems programming. When I did C programming for a personal computer, I commonly debugged my code simply by putting in printf statements around the place to check variable values, and also by using the instrument that lets you check the values of variab...

Regards... I need to code ISO-7816-3 (contact smartcards, data-link layer) in some MCU but I'm still pondering my options. I was thinking of simply using a couple of HC08's I've got handy, but my concern is: Will I be able to log/trace what goes on at 9600/55000 bps? How? Right now I'm reading the section on Monitor ROM for the HC08, but it looks quite complicated and it is probably ...

Just about to design a new board and need to use some zero ohm links to allow easy circuit isolation incase of any hardware debugging. Going to use a 1205 package. It's listed at 1/4 Watt. +/- 5%. Hmm, does that mean that you get some zero ohm links that amplify? ;) How does that work then? How much current do you have to put through zero ohms to get 1/4 watt power consumption? Ok, zero ...

I'm using an STM32F103VB, and one of the things that I'm doing is doing a set of ADC reads which are then being transferred via DMA to a buffer. For some reason, when I'm debugging the DMA transfer gets scrambled: channel 0 ends up where channel 1 is supposed to go, channel 1 where channel 2 should be, on up the line until finally the last channel gets written to channel 0. I have th...

I had been trying to output some sort of address name mapping for debugging. Using the Map file seemed promising initially. But when trying to dump memory locations, it became obvious that I needed the sizes, too. The pure MPASM syntax does not seem to allow annotating that information. gpasm looked superior in that respect. Their .DEF extension specifically. BUT it seems to be moving

I often work on embedded firmware for MCUs connected by a multidrop master/slave RS485 bus. Moreover I try to compile the same code with mingw compiler, simulating the hw. Of course, I simulate the serial bus connection (UART) by using a COM port on Windows. This allows me to speed-up testing, debugging and so on. So I can launch many simulators of the same device or different devices...
