The kit is in the form of a populated PCB comprising a CMX7x6x target IC and appropriate supporting components and circuitry. The board also incorporates all of the necessary power-supply regulation facilities for operation from a single 5 volt supply, or a dual +/-5 volt supply if the instrumentation interface is required. The board is fitted with a C-BUS connector allowing the PE0601 to be operated by connection to either of the two C-BUS ports on a CML PE0002 Interface Card, and used with the associated PC GUI software, or by direct connection between the CMX7x6x C-BUS and the user s C development application or emulation system. 2011 CML Microsystems Plc Evaluation Kit for CMX7x6x PE0601-xxxx TM The CMX7x6x Function Image (FI) can be loaded, on power-up, directly into the on-board target IC using the PE0002 interface or the user s system. Alternatively, it can be automatically loaded from the on- board serial memory, on power-up. In this case, the on-board serial memory has to be pre-loaded with the FI by using the Program Serial Memory tab on the PE0002 GUI software, or by the users system utilising the appropriate thick stub programme. All of this software is available from the CML website. Function images suitable for the CMX7x6x range of products can be downloaded from the CML Technical Portal. 2011 CML Microsystems Plc 2 UM0601/2
