Hello Has anyone succeeded in getting Metrowerks Codewarrior 2.0 to debug an hcs12 board with a self-made BDM consisting of a second hcs12 board running d-bug12? (this would sort of be equivalent to Technological Arts' microBDM12SX) The Metrowerks "True Time Simulator and Debugger" allows one to select d-bug12 as a connection method in the "Set Target" menu, but then it only has hc12 as a target cpu choice (there is a file called hc12.cpu, so I guess one would need an hcs12.cpu settings file ...) If this is impossible, would be grateful if someone could recommend the most economical BDM one would need ... Many thanks in advance Robert Imhoff |

Robert, Let me answer with a question: What value do you give the time you would probably need to invest into chasing BDM problems and missing productive debugging features on the "most economical BDM"? If the answer is "quite a bit", then look for a BDM which comes with its own user-interface software and costs around $2000 or so. It will return the investment pretty fast, by saving you time. Nohau that I work for makes one, and so does iSystems, Lauterbach and Noral. If you are interested in details about the Nohau BDM you can read the following article at: http://www.nohau.com/appnotes/hcs12bdm_emulator.pdf Hope this helps, Doron Nohau Corporation HC12 In-Circuit Emulators www.nohau.com/emul12pc.html At 04:33 PM 7/15/2003 +0200, you wrote: >Hello > >Has anyone succeeded in getting Metrowerks Codewarrior 2.0 to debug an >hcs12 board with a self-made BDM consisting of a second hcs12 board >running d-bug12?

Hello Doron Just from a business point of view you are surely right. But then there is the intellectual challenge of an elegantly simple solution. Since D-Bug12 has the necessary functionality in pod mode, using a second hcs12 board would be a very useful method for amateur users who don't have the necessary budget for the dedicated hardware to be able to experiment with Codewarrior and Processor Expert.

I must say that my intention is to use the Cosmic tools I've purchased
for development, but for production programmers I have added the circuitry to my prototype board. The time doing that was trivial, and I can download DBug12 once I've finished with the prototypes, and uses them as production programmers. The production programmers only need to download a bootloader. In the end I can take the opportunity to learned more about HCS12, and if it does not work out then in addition to Nohau there are also P&E, ComPod12 with NoICE and Starprog, Axiom, Noral and probably many others.
