inDart-HCS08

inDART-HCS08 is a powerful entry-level tool for Motorola HCS08-based systems. It includes an ISP debugger/programmer. inDART-HCS08 takes advantage of Metrowerks CodeWarrior HC(S)08 Integrated Development Environment and the BDC (Background Debug Controller) feature to debug the user program. Together with CodeWarrior HC(S)08, inDART-HCS08/GB60 provides you with everything you need to compile, download (program), in-circuit emulate and debug user code. Full speed program execution allows you to perform hardware and software testing in real time. inDART-HCS08 is connected to (and powered by) the host PC through a USB port, while the 6-pin BDM connector of the product fits into the target’s standard BDM connector.

All MCUs in the HCS08 Family contain a single-wire background debug interface which supports in-circuit programming of on-chip non-volatile memory and sophisticated non-intrusive debug capabilities. Unlike debug interfaces on earlier 8-bit MCUs, this system does not interfere with normal application resources. It does not use any user memory or locations in the memory map and does not share any on-chip peripherals. The background debug controller (BDC) uses a single-wire communication interface to allow non-intrusive access to target system memory and registers. inDART-HCS08 series tools use the standard, 6-pin BDM connector defined by Motorola to program and debug the target device.
