5516 EVA Board with Compiler and IC3000

Upgrade system with IC3000 and trace possibilities

iSYSTEM’s ITMPC5516 target board is an evaluation and development system for the Freescale MPC5516 microcontroller. The ITMPC5516 package consists of a board populated with the Freescale MPC5516 CPU, JTAG and Nexus debug connectors, as well as two serial interfaces and an on-board integrated iSYSTEM debugger. It ships with a power supply, USB cable and limitted winIDEA IDE/debugger software (32kbyte download limit 3 month after activation with an upgrade option) as well as a full free GNU C compiler for MPC and sample applications.

A simple jumper selects whether the on-board iSYSTEM USB-JTAG debugger is used or an external debug tool is connected via JTAG or the 38-pin mictor interface. The latter enables the user to have full on-chip Nexus trace access. A trace is the basis for professional testing and the detection of major defects and bugs. Programm execution and time stemps are recorded and displayed by a trace debug system. Profiling and code coverage analysis are additional capabilities enabled by such a Nexus trace.
