Emulation system for PIC microcontrollers and dsPIC

29 November 2006 Design Automation

Microchip Technology has released the MPLAB REAL ICE emulation system for the development of applications employing Microchip’s PIC microcontrollers and dsPIC digital signal controllers (DSCs).

Addressing the need for increased controller memory speed and cable interconnection distances, the MPLAB REAL ICE emulation system offers next-generation emulation support for Microchip's high-speed microcontrollers and DSCs.

It supports standard and advanced debugging facilities, such as complex break points, application code trace and datalogging, code execution stopwatch, and realtime variable monitoring. Fully integrated into the MPLAB integrated development environment (IDE) for writing code, building projects, testing, verification and programming, it integrates hardware and software application design tools to aid development and enable rapid application deployment within a consistent, unified framework. The MPLAB IDE is shipped free with the MPLAB REAL ICE emulation system.

Increasingly, embedded design engineers are looking to simplify code development while reducing design-software costs. Microchip developed the MPLAB REAL ICE emulation system concurrently with the design of its next-generation microcontroller and DSC devices to ensure tightly coupled emulation integration. Proprietary on-chip resources furnish an emulation window for full-speed debugging, while monitoring variables in realtime. High-speed data interfaces rapidly upload large trace records, and accommodate quick monitoring and instant adjustment of application parameters.
