ADuC8xx Evaluation Kit Getting Started User Guide

INTRODUCTION

This user guide functions as a tutorial to introduce the various
tools that are part of the MicroConverter® QuickStart™ develop-
ment system. Because these tools are ADuC8xx generic, this
user guide applies to all ADuC8xx parts.
The ADuC8xx parts and the evaluation boards referenced in
this tutorial guide are shown in Table 1. The tools described in
this user guide are listed in Table 2.

Executable
Function
Asm51.exe
This assembler takes an assembly language source file created with a text editor and saved with a
.asm extension, and translates it into two files: a listing file output (.lst) and a machine language
object file in standard Intel HEX format (.hex).
WSD.exe
The WDS is a Windows® software program developed by Analog Devices, Inc., that allows one to
serially download standard Intel HEX files created by the ASM51 assembler to the MicroConverter
while in circuit.
Available
Keil and IAR provide a complete IDE integrating all tools necessary to edit, assemble, simulate, and
online
debug assembly source code via the serial port. Download the latest 8051 tools from the official
Keil-An ARM Company or IAR Systems Software, Inc. company website(s).
WASP.exe
WASP is an analysis tool allowing easy measurement of the analog noise performance of the
MicroConverter.
None
This emulation is used for nonintrusive debugging using Keil or IAR development tools. It is also
used for serial downloading via the EA pin and the WSD software.
