5. Software Overview

The following software is necessary to build a project, download code to, and communicate with the target

microcontroller.

8051 Evaluation Toolset

Silicon Labs Integrated Development Environment (IDE)

Other useful software included in the Silicon Labs 8-bit Development Tools package from the Silicon Labs

Downloads web site ( www.silabs.com/mcudownloads) includes:

5.1. 8051 Evaluation Toolset

The Silicon Labs IDE has native support for many third-party 8051 toolsets. Included with this kit is an 8051

evaluation assembler, compiler, and linker. For further information on the tools, including limitations, see the

corresponding application note. Application notes can be found on the Silicon Labs web site (http://

www.silabs.com/appnotes). See Table 1 for a list of supported toolsets and associated application notes.

5.2. Silicon Labs IDE

The Silicon Labs IDE integrates a source-code editor, source-level debugger, and in-system programmer. The

following sections discuss how to open an example project in the IDE, build the source code, and download it to the

target device.

5.2.1. Running the T620_Blinky or T622_Blinky example program

The T620_Blinky or T622_Blinky example program blinks an LED on the target board.

1. Open the Silicon Labs IDE from the Start menu.

2. Select ProjectOpen Project to open an existing project.

3. Browse to the C:\SiLabs\MCU\Examples\C8051T620_1_6_7_T320_3\Blinky or SiLabs\MCU\Exam-

ples\C8051T622_3_T326_7\Blinky directory (default) and select the T620_Blinky_C.wsp or

T622_Blinky_C.wsp project file. Click Open.

4. Once the project is open, build the project by clicking on the Build/Make Project button in the toolbar or

selecting ProjectBuild/Make Project from the menu.

Note: After the project has been built the first time, the Build/Make Project command will only build the

files that have been changed since the previous build. To rebuild all files and project dependencies, click

on the Rebuild All button in the toolbar or select ProjectRebuild All from the menu.

5. Before connecting to the target device, several connection options may need to be set. Open the Connec-

tion Options window by selecting OptionsConnection Options... in the IDE menu. First, select the

“USB Debug Adapter” option. Next, the correct “Debug Interface” must be selected. C8051T62x/32x

devices use Silicon Labs “C2” 2-wire debug interface. Once all the selections are made, click the OK but-

ton to close the window.
