Description

Developing software and hardware for microcontroller based
systems involves the use of a range of tools that can include
editors, assemblers, compilers, debuggers, simulators,
emulators and Flash/OTP programmers. To the newcomer to
microcontroller development it is often not clear how all of
these different components play together in the development
cycle and what differences there are for example between
starter kits, emulators and simulators. To complicate matters
more, there are quite a number of different approaches and
technologies for emulation available that make it difficult for
even seasoned embedded engineers to pick the right tools. This
article gives a short explanation of the different tools
involved in the microcontroller development cycle, with a
particular focus on the different emulator types and their
advantages and disadvantages
