 Back to top
inDART-STX/LITE0 is a Design Kit package
which includes the inDART-STX in-circuit debugger/programmer
unit plus an evaluation board specific for the ST7FLITE0
microcontroller (in DIP16 package). inDART-STX/LITE0 takes
advantage of STMicroelectronics STVD7 (Visual Debug)
Integrated Development Environment and the ISP (In-System
Programming) feature to program the FLASH memory of the
microcontrollers. Together with STVD7, inDART-STX/LITE0
provides users with everything they need to write, compile (evaluation versions of Cosmic and Metrowerks C Compilers are
provided), download, in-circuit emulate and debug user code.
inDART-STX/LITE0 is also supported by Metrowerks CodeWarrior
IDE--an evaluation version of which is provided as well.
Full-speed program execution allows users to perform hardware
and software testing in real time. inDART-STX/LITE0 is
connected to the host PC through an USB port, while the 10-pin
probe of the debuggers fit into the target's standard ISP
connector. The instrument is powered by the USB bus, so an
external power supply is not required.
Evaluation Board
This package includes a full-featured
evaluation board specific for the ST7FLITE0 microcontroller
(DIP16). The evaluation board includes DIP-switches, jumpers,
LEDs, push-buttons, a potentiometer, prototyping area and a
standard ISP connector and can be used for evaluation/experiments in the absence of a target application
board.

The inDART Technology
Contrariwise to traditional in-circuit
emulation (where the target application is executed and
emulated inside the emulator), inDART-STX uses the very same
target microcontroller to carry on in-circuit execution. This
means that all microcontroller's peripherals (timers, A/D
converters, I/O pins, etc.) are not reconstructed or simulated
by an external device, but are the very same target
microcontroller's peripherals. Moreover, the inDART-STX
debugging approach ensures that the target microcontroller's
electrical characteristics (pull-ups, low-voltage operations,
I/O thresholds, etc.) are 100% guaranteed.
Design Kit Advantages
The evaluation boards included in the various
Design Kit packages feature a specific microcontroller with
the addition of a ready-to-use ISP interface. Just plug the
inDART-STX ISP cable into the evaluation board's ISP
connector, load the provided sample application into the user
interface and you're ready to work. It's a hassle-free way of
immediately working with your target device. Additionally,
evaluation boards feature LEDs, push-buttons, DIP-switches,
potentiometers and a prototyping area. Of course, the
inDART-STX in-circuit debugger/programmer unit included in
Design Kit packages is the same unit included in all other
packages it still supports all of the devices of the ST72F
FLASH family as well as all of the devices of the ST FIVE 508
FLASH family.

Software Updates
The
System Software CD provided with the instrument contains the
STMicroelectronics STVD7 IDE, an evaluation versions of the
Cosmic C Compiler and an evaluation version of Metrowerks
CodeWarrior for ST7. To get updated versions of these software
packages, please refer to the respective websites

Programming Library
(DLL)
The optional IPL-ST7 Programming Library is a
DLL which includes all of the low-level functions that allow
users to set up the instrument and perform, from within their
own Windows application, most of the programming commands and
functions of the DataBlaze user interface. The IPL-ST7
Programming Library contains C written routines, and can be
used to interface the instrument from within, for example, a
Microsoft Visual C or Visual Basic application, as well as any
other programming language that supports the DLL mechanism.
The IPL-ST7 Programming Library can be purchased both as an
accessory to every instrument of the inDART-ST7 series and
inDART-STX for ST7 series, or separately. Full documentation
and examples are included. An USB software protection key is
provided with every copy of IPL-ST7: the protection key must
be plugged into any USB port on the PC where the library
functions of IPL-ST7 are used.
