71M651x Software User’s Guide
2. DESIGN GUIDE
This section provides designers with some basic guidance in developing power meter applications utilizing the TSC
71M651x devices. There are two types of applications that can be developed:
• Embedded application using the sources provided by TERIDIAN, or
• Embedded application using only customer generated functions.
2.1.HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS
The following are the minimum hardware requirements for developing custom programs:
• TERIDIAN 71M651x Demo Board. This board interfaces with a PC via the RS232 serial interface (COM
port).
• AC Adaptor (AC/DC output) or variable power supply.
• PC Pentium with 512MB RAM and 10GB hard drive, 1 COM port and 1 USB port, running either
Windows 2000, or Windows ME or Windows XP.
• Signum Systems ADM-51 In-Circuit Emulator (for loading and debugging the embedded application) and
its associated cables. Signum references this device as ADM-51.
2.2.SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS
The following are the minimum software requirements for embedded application programming:
• Keil Compiler version 7.5 or later.
• μVision2 version 3.05c (Note: this version comes with Keil Compiler version 7.5).
• Signum Systems software Wemu51 (comes with Signum Systems ADM-51 ICE hardware).
The following software tools/programs are included in the 71M651x development kit and should be installed on the
development PC:
• Demo Code with Command Line Interface (CLI) - Used to interface directly to metering functions and to
the chip hardware.
• Source files
• Demo Code object file (hex file).
