    There are three GND wires in the emulation probe. Connect them to the QB-RL78F12 and target system. <1> Fasten the GND wire on the QB-RL78F12 side of the emulation probe to the nut on the bottom of the QB-RL78F12 using a #0 or #1 Phillips precision screwdriver (connection of B to A in Figure 2-5).
  • Page 30 QB-RL78F12 In-Circuit Emulator CHAPTER 1 GENERAL <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 2-5).
  • Page 31: Notes On Power Supply And Gnd Pin Connection

    <2> Be sure to connect the GND wire of the emulation probe to the QB-RL78F12 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 34: Chapter 4 Cautions

    When debugging is performed by connecting the QB-RL78F12 to the target system, the QB-RL78F12 emulates the target device as if it operates in the target system. However, the target device and the QB-RL78F12 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-RL78F12.
