System Specification

Ashling's "PathFinder" Debugger
PathFinder-51 provides the user-interface for the Ultra-P8WE5000 Development System. Controlled by button-bar, menus, mouse or automated command files (batch files), PathFinder supports all popular 80C51 compilers and assemblers including Keil, IAR, TASKING, Raisonance and Keil RTX51 RTOS.

Code Coverage Measurement
Ashling's "CodeScan" Code Coverage Measurement option for the Ultra Smart Card Development System identifies all tested, untested and unreachable code in a Smart Card program. This allows you to implement a repeatable, step-by-step program test procedure, to ensure that every byte of code has been tested, and to keep a formal record of test completeness.

STARS Performance Analyser
Ashling's STARS (Software Test, Analysis and Reporting System) Performance Analyser option for the Ultra-P8WE5000 is a real-time, non-intrusive performance analyser. It measures the maximum, minimum and total execution time of every function in the program code. You can measure and optimise the execution time of your Smart Card program, identify untested program paths, and verify conformance to an execution-time specification.

Secure Development Environment
Ashling's range of development tools provides a comprehensive and powerful environment for all stages of development for Philips' Smart Cards and Dual Interface cards (contact/contactless). Working in co-operation with Philips, Ashling's products and procedures ensure the security and reliability of Smart Card programs.

Ashling support for all phases of Philips Smart Card Development

• Assembly and compilation of source code
• Assembly and compilation of source code
• Develop, execute, test and debug using the emulator
• Test and debug the program and the application, using emulator or ISO7816 probe
• Test Smart Card system applications using emulator and card reader
• Test, performance-analyse, verify and validate the program with Ultra-P8WE5000 STARS and CodeScan option
• Application-test the ROM code using the code prototyping kit (PKSC-P8WE5000)

Emulation Specification

Clock
1-8MHz clock range.

Emulation Memory
All on-chip XRAM and EEPROM memories fully supported. 1MB Emulator Code memory giving full support for Ultra-P8WE5000 banked program development, including banked memory, banked code breakpoints, banked triggers and banked execution trace. Auto-configuration of Ultra-P8WE5000 banked memory.

On-the-Fly Debugging
Full On-the-Fly, non-intrusive debugging: You can set breakpoints, define a trigger, view trace contents while your program is executing.

In-Circuit Emulation
Ashling's IN-CLA7816USB Smart Card probe includes a USB interface and an antenna for MIFARE® PRO/PROX Contactless mode. The Ashling IN-GSM Smart Card Probe is used to emulate the physical size and connections of a SIM/GSM Smart Card Optional Prototyping Kit for SmartCard (PKSC-P8WE5000) for Smart card ROM prototyping
