2.1 Features
The ICE (S5U1C62000H) is a microcomputer
software development support tool that increases
the efficiency of software development for the
S1C62 Family of 4-bit single chip microcomput-
ers.
The ICE and the S1C62 Family evaluation board
(S5U1C62xxxE), when used in combination,
provide an exceptionally powerful hardware and
software development support environment.
The following flow chart shows the creation
sequence of the single chip microcomputer
system from development through mass produc-
tion.
Use of the ICE and evaluation board can greatly
shorten the development process time required
for debugging and system evaluation procedures.

Description
A description of the ICE follows.
(1) The ICE operates by connecting to a general purpose personal computer (IBM PC/XT, PC/AT). The
debugging environment is constructed by the user's personal computer acting as the host system.
(2) High-performance emulation commands are provided. A variety of commands are supplied, such as a
register value implemented break function, on-the-fly data display, history display, and other high-
level functions.
(3) The ICE is equipped with a special power supply. This power source supplies V
DD
to the evaluation
board, making additional power supply from the user side unnecessary.
(4) The ICE can also be used to analyze hardware. Hardware debugging is supported through the SYNC
and HALT terminals.
