2 DESIGN GUIDE
This section provides designers with some basic guidance in developing power meter applications utilizing the TSC
71M653X devices. There are two types of applications that can be developed:
• Embedded application using the sources provided by TERIDIAN, or
• Embedded application using only customer generated functions.
2.1 HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS
The following are the minimum hardware requirements for developing custom programs:
• TERIDIAN 71M6531 Demo Board. This board interfaces with a PC via the RS232 serial interface (COM
port).
• AC Adaptor (AC/DC output) or variable power supply.
• PC Pentium with 512MB RAM and 10GB hard drive, 1 COM port and 1 USB port, running either Windows
2000, or Windows ME or Windows XP.
• Signum Systems ADM-51 In-Circuit Emulator (for loading and debugging the embedded application) and
its associated cables. Signum references this device as ADM-51.
2.2 SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS
The following are the minimum software requirements for embedded application programming:
• Keil Compiler version 8.03a or later.
• μVision2 version 3.33 (Note: this version comes with Keil Compiler version 8.03a).
• Signum Systems software Wemu51 (comes with Signum Systems ADM-51 ICE hardware).
The following software tools/programs are included in the 71M653X development kit and should be present on the
development PC:
• Demo Code with Command Line Interface (CLI) - Used to interface directly to metering functions and to
the chip hardware.
• Source files
• Demo Code object file (hex file).
