CHAPTER 3 HOW TO USE MINICUBE2 WITH V850 MICROCONTROLLER
This chapter describes how to use MINICUBE2 when performing on-chip debugging and flash programming for
a V850 microcontroller.
On-chip debugging is a method to debug a microcontroller mounted on the target system, using a debug
function implemented in the device. Since debugging is performed with the target device operating on the board,
this method is suitable for field debugging.
Flash programming is a method to write a program to the flash memory embedded in a device. Erasing,
writing and verifying the program can be performed on-board with the device.
Read the following chapters if you are using MINICUBE2 for the first time with a V850 microcontroller as the
target device.
•
3.1 Target System Design
For communication between MINICUBE2 and the target system, communication circuits must be mounted on
the target system. This section describes the circuit design and mounting of connectors.
•
3.2 On-Chip Debugging
This section describes the system configuration and startup method to perform on-chip debugging with
MINICUBE2.
•
3.3 Flash Programming
This section describes the system configuration and startup method to perform flash programming with
MINICUBE2.
