B.1 Introduction

This appendix pertains to CodeLab version 2.3 and later which uses Microsoft's Visual Studio .NET. For CodeLab version 2.2 and earlier, refer to appendix B.

For more detailed information on JTAG and the 80333, please see the Intel® 80333 I/O Processor JTAG Support White Paper.

B.1.1 Purpose

The purpose of this appendix is to help the user setup and become familiar with the IQ80333 and other related hardware and software. This appendix steps the user through an example program using:

CodeLab EDE

CodeLab EDE debugger

Macraigor* Raven* JTAG

This programming also includes:

 

 

 

software setup

compiling

linking

debugging example code

The user tours the major features of the debugger and explores some of the basics of debugging. By the end of this exercise, the user has been given a general understanding of the MGC* development tools and can begin working on new applications.

B.1.2

Necessary Hardware and Software

 

 

This example uses the MGC CodeLab plug-in for Microsoft* Visual Studio, the GNU* Pro compiler,

 

the Macraigor Raven JTAG connector, and the 80333.
