JTAG emulator PALMiCE3
PALMiCE3
PALMiCE3 H8S is a JTAG emulator that incorporates on-chip debugging function in Renesas-made H8S and H8SX family cores. It supports USB2.0 (High-speed) as the host interface. Yet, the Vbus, which requires no power supply, is also supported in PALMiCE3 as the feature was well received in PALMiCE2. PALMiCE3 has a palm-sized, light and compact body, providing excellent portability to support you with debugging. As for the debugger, it surely incorporates CSIDE, which provides a user-friendly debugging environment. CSIDE supports not only high-level language debugging of a range of C languages but also fully prepared for the debugging of a range of RTOSs with optional debug libraries.




Having inherited the concept of PALMiCE series, it realizes comfortable operation by speedup, and ease-of-use by compactification and provision for connection that requires no power supply.
Attains speed up
In consideration for realization of better debugging features and augmentation of trace memory, communication between PALMiCE3 and the host computer has been made faster to (30MB/S), 3 times the conventional ratio. This made transfer of internal resource such as traced data faster and thereby made debugging more comfortable.
Inherited Vbus support that requires no power supply
Realized connection that requires no power supply with Vbus support provision based on the concept inherited from PALMiCE series.
Even more compact body design
Although performance has been improved, it has been materialized to even lighter and smaller body than the former product.

Provided with integrated development environment "CSIDE" Version 5 as standard
Provided with integrated development environment as standard for seamless implementation of development phases from creation of the program to debugging.
Undo Trace into feature for undoing Trace into execution that went too far *1
Restores the results of execution back to original state by putting virtual memory and virtual register back to the values before change if Trace into execution (by single step execution) went too far. It allows easy reviewing of simple operations such as re-execution with the values changed and checking of the state before branched.
CPU break feature *1
Allows after-execution break of the program and access break upon read/write of data.
Branch tracing feature *1
Allows to display data for a few branches (branch source or branch source/destination, supplementation between branches) right before break.
DTC parallel transfer *1
Allows access to memory without causing break while the using program is being executed.
On-chip flash memory debugging feature
Also supports software break settings and ordinary memory rewriting feature in addition to downloading.
Easy update
By unique internet key issuing system, real-time support for newly added CPU, update to the latest version, range of optionally purchased software, etc. has been made feasible.


µITRON support
By additionally purchasing optional RTOS Debug Library besides debugger software, task tracing feature and status display feature for real-time OS will be added.
(Specifications vary by µITRON.)
