4. Getting Started
The necessary software to download, debug and communicate with the target microcontroller must be downloaded
from www.silabs.com/toolstick. The following software is necessary to build a project, download code to, and
communicate with the target microcontroller:
The Keil Demo Tools include a compiler, assembler, and linker. The limitation of the demo version is the resulting
object code is limited to 2 kBytes. ToolStick Terminal communicates with the target microcontroller's UART through
the ToolStick Base Adapter. It can also read/write the two GPIO pins available on the ToolStick Base Adapter.
Other useful software that is provided on the Silicon Labs Downloads (www.silabs.com/mcudownloads) website
includes the following:
All of the above software is described in more detail in Section “5. Software Overview”.
The software described above is provided in several download packages. The ToolStick Download package
includes example code, documentation including user’s guides and data sheets, and the ToolStick Terminal
application. The IDE, Keil Demonstration Tools, Configuration Wizard 2, and the Keil µVision Drivers are available
as separate downloads. After downloading and installing these packages, see the following sections for information
regarding the software and running one of the demo applications.
5. Software Overview
5.1. Silicon Laboratories IDE
The Silicon Laboratories IDE integrates a source-code editor, source-level debugger, and an in-system Flash
programmer. See Section “7. ToolStick C8051F931 Daughter Card Features Demo” for detailed information on how
to use the IDE. The Keil Demonstration Toolset includes a compiler, linker, and assembler and easily integrates
into the IDE. The use of third-party compilers and assemblers is also supported.
5.1.1. IDE System Requirements
The Silicon Laboratories IDE requirements:
5.1.2. 3rd Party Toolsets
The Silicon Laboratories IDE has native support for many 8051 compilers. The full list of natively supported tools is
as follows:
The demo applications for the C8051F931 Daughter Card are written for the Keil and SDCC toolsets.
