6. ToolStick C8051F342 Daughter Card Features Demo
The ToolStick kit includes a few simple code examples. The example described in this section is titled
F342DC_FeaturesDemo. The purpose of this example is to guide a new user through the features and capabilities
of the IDE and demonstrate the microcontroller’s on-chip debug capabilities. The F342DC_FeaturesDemo
example code uses the potentiometer on the daughter card to vary the blinking rate of the LED. The first part of
this demo shows how to use the IDE to connect and download the firmware, view and modify registers, use watch
windows, use breakpoints, and single step through code. The second part of the demo shows how to use ToolStick
Terminal to receive UART data from the daughter card and how to use the GPIO pins.
