DESIGN GUIDE
This section provides designers with some basic guidance in developing power meter applications utilizing the TSC
71M652X 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 71M6521 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 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 (not included in the demo kit). 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 71M652X development kit and should be present 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).
