Using P&E Software With The DEMOEM
P&E offers software tools for Freescale’s HCS08 and ColdFire V1 devices
that can be used to develop code for the DEMOEM board.
8.2.1
P&E Software Tools for HCS08 Microcontrollers
For Freescale’s HCS08 devices, P&E offers an integrated development
environment, which combines a command-line assembler, in-circuit debugger,
and flash memory programmer. The assembler includes features such as a
full string replacement macro, conditional assembly, include files, and more.
The debugger supports both assembly and C source-level debugging. The
programmer can program/reprogram both internal and external flash devices
in-circuit.
8.2.2
P&E’s Software Tools for ColdFire® V1 Microcontrollers
P&E offers an integrated development environment for Freescale’s ColdFire
V1 devices, which combines a GNU C compiler, in-circuit debugger, and flash
memory programmer. The debugger supports both assembly and C source-
level debugging. The programmer can program/reprogram both internal and
external flash devices in-circuit.

TRANSITIONING TO YOUR OWN TARGET
Once you have finished working with the DEMOEM and are ready to build
your own target, you will need a hardware tool to allow you to develop using
your own board. P&E’s USB Multilink and P&E’s Cyclone PRO offer two
effective solutions, depending on your needs. Both work with Freescale’s
CodeWarrior as well as P&E software, and both provide a seamless transition
to working with your own hardware.
The USB Multilink is a development tool that is functionally comparable to the
Embedded Multilink circuitry on the DEMOEM. It will enable you to debug
your code and program it onto your target. The Cyclone PRO is a more
versatile and robust development tool with advanced features and production
capabilities.
More information is available below to assist you in choosing the appropriate
development tool for your needs.
