This kit is a special 'bundle pack' of the COMPOD12/PRO Professional BDM Programmer plus the NO-ICE Software Debugger Utility. The kit supports high-speed programming and software debugging of any HCS12 Microcontroller Target System.
The ComPOD12 BDM-Interface is a universal In-System Programming (ISP)device for downloading firmware / data to a Motorola HC(S)12 Target System. The programmer connects to the Target Device 'BDM Port' on the Target System using a 6-pin ribbon cable fitted with a BDM12 6-pin header connector as defined by Motorola. Power supply for the pod also comes over this connection from the target board.
The ComPOD12/NG/DBG BDM-Interface provides all features of the COMPOD12/PRO version, plus a number of powerful extensions:
- Support of Low-Voltage HCS12 types (VCC=3..5V)
- Faster data transfer
- BDM-clock continuously adjustable between 250kHz and 40MHz!
- NO-ICE Debugger Software
The programmer driver software, StarProg, allows the Target Device FLASH and EEPROM memory areas to be programmed under PC control. The software makes use of the hardware interface ComPOD12 to access the target hardware. The connection to the PC is established via RS232.
