3. Software Setup
Simplicity Studio greatly reduces development time and complexity with Silicon Labs EFM32 and 8051 MCU
products by providing a high-powered IDE, tools for hardware configuration, and links to helpful resources, all in
one place.
Once Simplicity Studio is installed, the application itself can be used to install additional software and
documentation components to aid in the development and evaluation process.
Figure 2. Simplicity Studio
The following Simplicity Studio components are required for the C8051F330 Development Kit:
8051 Products Part Support
Simplicity Developer Platform
Download and install Simplicity Studio from www.silabs.com/8bit-software or www.silabs.com/simplicity-studio.
Once installed, run Simplicity Studio by selecting Start
Silicon LabsSimplicity StudioSimplicity Studio
from the start menu or clicking the Simplicity Studio shortcut on the desktop. Follow the instructions to install the
software and click Simplicity IDE to launch the IDE.
The first time the project creation wizard runs, the Setup Environment wizard will guide the user through the
process of configuring the build tools and SDK selection.
In the Part Selection step of the wizard, select from the list of installed parts only the parts to use during
development. Choosing parts and families in this step affects the displayed or filtered parts in the later device
selection menus. Choose the C8051F33x family by checking the C8051F33x check box. Modify the part selection
at any time by accessing the Part Management dialog from the Window
PreferencesSimplicity
Studio
Part Management menu item.
Simplicity Studio can detect if certain toolchains are not activated. If the Licensing Helper is displayed after
completing the Setup Environment wizard, follow the instructions to activate the toolchain.

3.1. Running Blinky
Each project has its own source files, target configuration, SDK configuration, and build configurations such as the
Debug and Release build configurations. The IDE can be used to manage multiple projects in a collection called a
workspace. Workspace settings are applied globally to all projects within the workspace. This can include settings
such as key bindings, window preferences, and code style and formatting options. Project actions, such as build
and debug are context sensitive. For example, the user must select a project in the Project Explorer view in order
to build that project.
To create a project based on the Blinky example:
1. Click the Simplicity IDE tile from the Simplicity Studio home screen.
2. Click the Create new project link from the welcome screen or go to File
NewSilicon Labs MCU
Project.
3. In the Kit drop-down, select C8051F330 Development Kit, in the Part drop-down, select C8051F330, and
in the SDK drop-down, select the desired SDK. Click Next.
4. Select Example and click Next.
5. Under C8051F330 Development Kit in the Blinky folder, select F330-5 Blinky and click Finish.
6. Click on the project in the Project Explorer and click Build, the hammer icon in the top bar. Alternatively,
go to Project
Build Project.
7. Click Debug to download the project to the hardware and start a debug session.
8. Press the Resume button to start the code running. The LED should blink.
9. Press the Suspend button to stop the code.
10. Press the Reset the device button to reset the target MCU.
11. Press the Disconnect button to return to the development perspective.
3.2. Simplicity Studio Help
