Real-time emulator speeds PIC16F87X development
The latest real-time emulation hardware module from RF Solutions is designed to simplifythe development of embedded systems based on Arizona Microchip's PIC16F87X family of 8-bit microcontrollers
Control lines are used to handle data flow and the device incorporates a 190byte data buffer.
Available in either leaded (18-pin PDIP) or surface mount (18-pin SO) packages, the RF600T performs all the necessary data manipulation and encryption required by the radio module to achieve a reliable radio link and also provides a simple data interface to the user's controller.
Operating in either addressed or broadcast mode the RF600T has been designed to achieve the maximum possible range from RF modules using automatic data packet generation with Manchester encoding and CRC-based error checking.
When operated in addressed mode, automatic retries ensure that the host is informed of successful or failed data packet delivery.
The standard RF600T operates from a supply voltage of 3.0 to 5.5V (2.0 to 5.5V optional).
