Sensing machine gains ICE support
Xemics and Phyton have released the first in-circuit emulator (ICE) for the XE8000 microcontroller series and sensing machines.
A PC graphical user interface enables a simple but practical development environment for evaluation of the RF transceiver.
The XE1202SK performs basic functions with a ping-pong demo as the default configuration, plus features such as XE1202 register configuration and transmission/reception of a serial datastream between two units.
With prices at $250 per kit, which includes two main boards, RF modules, instructions and software, this is a low cost tool kit enabling RF evaluation of the XE1202SK basic functions of; configuration in transmitter receiver or sleep mode, frequency deviation selection, filter bandwidth and output power management.
The easy to use XE1202SK enables the demonstration of two-way communication between two radio boards, practical demonstration with an easy to use ping-pong demo, ''range'' and ''site survey'' testing but also the evaluation of the RF transceiver through a user friendly PC GUI interface.
The demo can be customised with user settings.
In addition the user can select between three frequencies and four output powers.
