13705PLAY

13705PLAY is a utility which allows the user to easily read/write the S1D13705 registers, Look-Up Table and display memory.

The user interface for 13705PLAY is similar to the DOS DEBUG program; commands are received from the standard input device, and output is sent to the standard output device (console for Intel and terminal for embedded platforms). This utility requires the target platform to support standard IO.

13705PLAY commands can be entered interactively using a keyboard/monitor or they can be executed from a script file. Scripting is a powerful feature which allows command sequences played back from a file thus avoiding having to retype lengthy sequences.

The 13705PLAY display utility must be configured and/or compiled to work with your hardware platform. The program 13705CFG.EXE can be used to configure 13705PLAY. Consult the 13705CFG users guide, document number X27A-B-001-xx, for more infor- mation on configuring S1D13705 utilities.

This software is designed to work in both embedded and personal computer (PC) environ- ments. For the embedded environment, it is assumed that the system has a means of downloading software from the PC to the target platform. Typically, this is done by serial communications. The PC uses a terminal program to send control commands and infor- mation to the target processor. Alternatively, the PC can program an EPROM, which is then placed in the target platform. Some target platforms can also communicate with the PC via a parallel port connection, or an Ethernet connection.

S1D13705 Supported Evaluation Platforms

13705PLAY has been tested with the following S1D13705 supported evaluation platforms:

•PC system with an x86 processor. Both 16-bit and 32-bit code is supported.

•M68EC000IDP (Integrated Development Platform) board, revision 3.0, with a Motorola M68EC000 processor.

•SH3-LCEVB board, revision B, with an Hitachi SH-3 HD6417780 processor.

If the platform you are using is different from the above, please see the S1D13705
