  • Page 19: Software Settings

    QB-RL78L12 In-Circuit Emulator CHAPTER 2 SETUP PROCEDURE 2.1 Software Settings Check the user's manual for the debugger that will be used. 2.2 Clock Settings The IECUBE clock must be set to the clock used by the target device. For details about how to set the clock, check the user's manual for the debugger that will be used.
  • Page 20 The clock generated from the oscillator mounted on the emulator is used. The selectable frequencies are same as those of the target device. To modify the clock setting, the acrylic board on the bottom of the QB-RL78L12 must be removed. The acrylic board can be removed by lifting it up.
  • Page 21 QB-RL78L12 In-Circuit Emulator CHAPTER 2 SETUP PROCEDURE Figure 2-1. Acrylic Board Removal Method Note As an oscillator to be mounted in the OSC1 socket in the emulator, use the one that satisfies the following specifications. - Supply voltage: 5.0 V - Output level: CMOS Note An oscillator that uses a resonator cannot be used.

  • Page 30: Connecting Qb-Rl78L12 To Target System

    There are three GND wires in the emulation probe. Connect them to the QB-RL78L12 and target system. <1> Fasten the GND wire on the QB-RL78L12 side of the emulation probe to the nut on the bottom of the QB-RL78L12 using a #0 or #1 Phillips precision screwdriver (connection of B to A in Figure 2-8).
  • Page 31 QB-RL78L12 In-Circuit Emulator CHAPTER 2 SETUP PROCEDURE <3> Connect the exchange adapter and emulation probe to the target connector. <4> Connect the GND wires on the target system side of the emulation probe to the target system GND. If a pin or screw is fastened to the target system GND, remove the transparent terminal cover on the end of the GND wire and fasten the Y terminal of the GND wire to the target system (C in Figure 2-8).
  • Page 32: Notes On Power Supply And Gnd Pin Connection

    <2> Be sure to connect the GND wire of the emulation probe to the QB-RL78L12 and the target system. If it cannot be connected, the impedance of the cable is unstable and could bring about lowering of signal transmission characteristics or distortion of the output waveform for an input waveform.

  • Page 35: Chapter 4 Cautions

    When debugging is performed by connecting the QB-RL78L12 to the target system, the QB-RL78L12 emulates the target device as if it operates in the target system. However, the target device and the QB-RL78L12 operate differently in the following ways. Consequently, the target device should be used for final evaluation before launching mass production, and the customer is to be responsible for judging the appropriateness of applying the QB-RL78L12.
