ST7-EMU3 series emulator
Introduction
Thanks for choosing ST7! This manual will help you set up and start using your ST7-EMU3 emulator. The ST7-EMU3 emulator is the latest generation of ST7 emulators. In combination with the ST7 debugging and programming software, it gives you unprecedented control of application development - from building and debugging your applications to programming your ST7 microcontroller. The ST7-EMU3 emulator gives you start-to-finish control of application development by providing you with emulation and in-circuit communication (ICC) configurations. The ST Micro Connect box is your common hardware interface for emulation and in-circuit debugging and programming. In the emulation configuration, your emulator's probe and ST7 Visual Develop (STVD7) software allow you to build and debug your application software. This configuration gives you the most complete range of debugging features, including advanced breakpoints and performance analysis. In the in-circuit communication configuration, the ICC Add-on and STVD7 allow you to debug your application while it runs on your ST7, and to program your ST7 microcontroller with ST7 Visual Programmer (STVP7).

Ethernet connection
Your EMU3 emulator supports 10 MHz Ethernet connections when set up in the emulation configuration. When you program with the ICC Add-on, use the parallel or the USB port. For Ethernet connections, you must first give your ST Micro Connect box an IP address in order for it to be recognized as a device on your network. If your ST Micro Connect box has not been assigned an IP address, refer to Section 3.3.1 on page 12 for detailed instructions. Figure 10. Ferrite for Ethernet cable
Connect a ferrite as close as possible to the end of the cable that will be plugged into your ST Micro Connect box
Once you have assigned an IP address to the ST Micro Connect box, connect it to your network using the Ethernet connector on the rear panel. To reduce signal noise, you should attach the provided ferrite to your Ethernet cable as shown in Figure 8. The ferrite should be placed as close as possible to the end that is plugged into your ST Micro Connect box. The Ethernet cable is not provided with your EMU3 emulator.
3.3.1
Assigning an IP address
To give your ST Micro Connect box an IP address do the following: 1. Connect the provided serial cable between the serial port of your ST Micro Connect and a serial port on your PC (either COM1 or COM2).
Note:
To set the IP address, you must use a direct serial cable like the one provided (i.e. the PCside Receive Data pin (Rx) connects directly to the emulator-side Rx pin and the PC-side Transmit Data pin (Tx) connects directly to the emulator-side Tx pin). You cannot use a serial cable with an inverted connection (Rx pin connected to Tx pin). 2. 3. From Windows, open a Hyperterminal window. This is done by selecting Start>Programs>Accessories>Communications>Hyperterminal. If the Hyperterminal software is not installed on your system, you will have to install it from your Windows(R) CD-ROM, by selecting Start>Settings>Control Panel>Add/Remove Programs>Windows Setup, and clicking on the Hyperterminal option.

Output and Input triggers
Your ST Micro Connect box has two output triggers (OUT1, OUT2), and one input trigger (IN), which are available via SUB-click connectors located on the front panel (see Figure 17). Both input and output signals are at TTL level. Advanced Breakpoints in STVD7, allow you to define an event based on input signals (see also Section 4.4.3 on page 22), and program signals to the output triggers. The following trigger output modes (schematically represented in Figure 20) are supported:

Output a pulse--where a signal of value 1 is sent during exactly one memory cycle. Toggle--where the signal value is changed from 0 to 1 or from 1 to 0. Set the output high --where the output signal is set equal to 1. Set the output low--where the output signal is set equal to 0.
Several examples of how to program Advanced Breakpoints to control the sending of signals to the output triggers are given in STVD7's online help and user manual.

EMU3 probe
The EMU3 probe (Figure 21) has a modular design that allows you to emulate the full range of ST7. This design is based on: 1. 2. an interchangeable, target emulation board (TEB) that is specific to the ST7 or family of ST7s that you want to emulate. a common emulation board (CEB) and a dedicated emulation board (DEB) that are common to all ST7. The TEB connects to the DEB, which is housed in your EMU3 probe.
The probe connects to your application board during emulation via a flex adapter and socket. In addition, an analyzer input connector allows the connection of external devices, or input signals from your application hardware. More information about these connections is provided in the ST7xxxx-EMU3 Probe User Guide. Figure 21. EMU3 probe

4.4.1
Target emulation board (TEB)
To reconfigure your EMU3 probe to emulate another ST7 or family of ST7s, simply install the appropriate target emulation board (TEB) in the EMU3 probe. TEBs can be ordered independently. For information about the TEB to choose, refer to the ST Product and Tool Selection Guide. Installing and changing the TEB is described in detail in the ST7xxxxEMU3 Probe User Guide provided with your probe.
4.4.2
Application board connectors
Connectors on the TEB allow you to connect your probe to your application board, using the appropriate flex adapter and socket. How you connect your EMU3 probe to your application board depends on the ST7 and its package. Different application connectors are provided with your emulator, depending on the MCUs supported by its probe. For a list of connectors provided with your probe and detailed installation instructions, refer to the ST7xxxx-EMU3 Probe User Guide provided with your probe.

4.4.4
Application power supply follower
Your emulator is equipped with an automatic power supply follower, which converts your application power to the range supported by the emulator. The emulator's internal power supply regulator supports a VDD voltage up to 5.5 V. The lower limit of the range depends on the ST7 you are emulating. For more information, refer to your ST7xxxx Datasheet. If your application's voltage lies outside of the range supported by your emulator or your ST7, the emulator's power supply follower will convert the voltage to within the appropriate range - for example, even if the application voltage is 6 V, it will be limited by the emulator to 5.5 V.

In-circuit communication configuration
In the in-circuit communication configuration, the ST7-EMU3 emulator provides the capability to program your application to your microcontroller and to debug your application as it runs on your ST7. The following sections provide information about:

Section 5.1 - the system architecture Section 5.2 - ICC connection requirements Section 5.3 - ICC Add-on features Section 5.4 - the ST Micro Connect boxes' dual configuration capability
5.1
System architecture and development features
The ST7-EMU3 emulator comes with an in-circuit communication (ICC) Add-on. This connection device allows users to take advantage of the ICC protocol for in-circuit programming (ICP) and debugging (ICD) on ST7s with XFLASH or HDFLASH memory. In conjunction with ST7 Visual Pr-ogrammer (STVP7) and ST7 Visual Develop (STVD7) software, this device makes it possible to program your application software to the ST7 on your application board and then debug your application while it runs on your ST7 (see Figure 23). In the in-circuit communication configuration, the ICC Add-on serves as the hardware interface for connecting your ST Micro Connect box to the ST7 on your application board. During application development, STVD7 software running on your PC provides an integrated development environment that allows you to debug your application while it runs on an ST7 that has debug modules. STVD7's in-circuit debugging features include advanced breakpoints, as well as trace recording for MCUs with a memory trace controller (MTC) module. For more information about in-circuit debugging with STVD7, refer to the STVD7 User Manual provided with your software package. Once you have finalized your application, STVP7 software provides a graphical interface for verifying memory sectors, checking the settings of the option bytes and programming the MCU. For more information about programming with STVP7, refer to the STVP7 online help provided with your software package.

ICC connection requirements
To take advantage of ICC, you must integrate an ICC connector into your application hardware when you start developing your application. To help you implement ICP and ICD in the development of your application, this section provides a summary of points you should consider when installing an ICC connector. Figure 24. In-circuit communication connector To connect to your application board for ICP and ICD, you need to install a 10-pin, HE-10 type connector (also called an ICC connector) and ensure the appropriate connections to your ST7. This connector receives the ICC cable and relays the signals required for ICP and ICD to your ST7.
Using the ICC protocol requires that a minimum of 4 and as many as 6 pins of your ST7 be relayed to the ICC connector. These connection requirements are illustrated in Figure 25, below and summarized in Figure 4.

ST7 pin ICCDATA ICCCLK RESET ICCSEL/VPP OSC1 or OSCIN VDD VSS
Isolation of ICCDATA and ICCCLK pins
As soon as the emulator's ICC Add-on is plugged into the application board the ICCDATA and ICCCLK pins must not be used by other application devices, even if an ICC session is not in progress. If the application uses these pins as inputs, isolation such as a serial resistor must be implemented to prevent other application devices from forcing a signal on either of these pins. The application board must not drive current in excess of 1mA. If the ICCDATA and ICCCLK pins are only used as outputs by the application, no signal isolation is necessary. For ST7 without an ICCSEL pin, during normal operation the ICCCLK pin must be pulled-up internally or externally (10K pull-up required in noisy environments). This is to avoid entering ICC mode unintentionally during a reset.
26/39
ST7-EMU3 series emulator
In-circuit communication configuration
Isolation of the RESET pin
During an ICC session, you must ensure that the emulator controls the ST7's RESET pin so that no external reset is generated by the application. This can lead to a conflict if the application reset circuitry signal exceeds 5mA (push-pull output or pull-up resistor <1k). To avoid such conflicts, a Shottky diode can be used to isolate the application reset circuit.
ICCSEL/VPP pin
The application pull-down resistor must not be lower than 10 k .
ICCOSC pin
The ICCOSC pin of the ICC connector must be connected to the ST7's OSC1 or OSCIN pin if the clock is not provided by the application, or if the application clock source is not programmed in the option byte. This connection allows you to start your ICP session using the ICP OPT Disable mode when programming, or the Start with External Clock (Ignore Option Bytes) feature when debugging. In this case, the ICC Add-on provides a clock source to initiate communication with the ST7. Your emulator with ICC Add-on provides a clock source at a frequency of 8 MHz. For ST7 devices with multi-oscillator capability, when the ICCOSC pin is connected, the OSC2 pin should be grounded. If your application provides a clock signal and you are certain that it is programmed in the ST7's option byte, you can start your ICP session using the ICP OPT Enable mode and when starting your ICD session it is not necessary to use the Start with External Clock (Ignore Option Bytes) feature in STVD7. In this case, your application clock source provides the clock signal for initiating communication with your ST7 and ICCOSC is not connected to your ST7.
VDD_APPLI pin
Not connected as EMU3 emulator's power supply follower is not used with the ICC Add-on.
ICC cable
Your EMU3 emulator includes a 30cm long ICC cable for connecting to the ICC connector on your application board. You can use a cable up to 2 meters long. Table 4. Typical ICC cable characteristics

5.3.1
Voltage selector
You have designed your application to use either 3.3 or 5 V as the signal voltage for your ICC Add-on. The voltage selector switch on the ICC Add-on must be set to the voltage you selected when designing your application. The selector switch is located on the top of the ICC Add-on's board (see Figure 26). Set the voltage of the ICC Add-on by switching the voltage selector switch to the appropriate voltage as shown in Figure 26, below: Figure 26.

Detailed error messages are logged in Err.log--your STMicroelectronics support representative may ask you to send this file in order to resolve the problem quickly. Table 5. Error messages
Then... This error occurs when one of the software files needed by STVD7 in order to initialize the emulator is missing or damaged. Check that: STVD7 has been properly installed--re-install STVD7 if in doubt. Any necessary firmware upgrades have been performed--see Section 4.6 on page 23. If this error persists, contact STMicroelectronics Product Support. This error only occurs when STVD7 cannot initialize the emulator during startup (when you click the Debug button to load your application into the emulator). Ensure that: The parallel cable is connected between the ST Micro Connect box and to the PC parallel port (LPT1 or LPT2) that you specified when installing STVD7. You have not placed any switch boxes between the parallel port connector of your PC and the ST Micro Connect box. The ST Micro Connect box is powered on. The parallel cable used is the one supplied with the by STMicroelectronics. If none of the above items has been overlooked, this may mean that your parallel port connection needs to be reconfigured. Please refer to Section 3.1.2 on page 10. This means that the communication link between STVD7 and your emulator has been broken while STVD7 has been in use. Check that: The parallel cable is connected between the ST Micro Connect box and one of the PC's parallel ports (LPT1 or LPT2). Note that the use of switch boxes between the parallel port connector of your PC and the ST Micro Connect box is not recommended. The ST Micro Connect box is powered on.

Troubleshooting
If the following error occurs:
This error occurs if STVD7 tries to initialize a new debugging session with the emulator while it is running another application. This scenario could occur in two ways: If you exit STVD7 and the emulator running an application (i.e. if you perform a Stop Debug command while the application is running, a dialog box will appear giving you the option to exit STVD7 while leaving the application running on the emulator). If you still want to initialize a new debugging session with STVD7, you must stop the application running on the emulator by performing a hard reset (ON/OFF) on the ST Micro Connect box. The emulator is shared by several users on a network, and is in use by another user.
Error 30103 The required EMU3 emulator is already in use by another process.
Error 40805 Failure when setting required clock. Error 40806 Required clock is not active and cannot be selected (example - no signal on external clock)
You have selected an external clock frequency which is outside of the supported range. Please refer to your ST7xxxx-EMU3 Probe User Guide for a listing of supported external clock frequencies. You have selected the external clock option, but there is no external clock signal being received. Check that: You have connected an external clock to your application board. You have turned on the power source to the external clock.
