tor.
1.5.2 All Z8 Emulators
1. Do not put a breakpoint at addresses after a STOP instruction. This causes the pro-
gram counter to continue at that location after Stop-Mode Recovery.
2. Single-stepping into a Halt instruction causes an ICEBOX
“Fatal Error” message
appear on the screen. The ICE chip must be reset, either by the
/Reset pin on the target board or by resetting the whole ICEBOX
by pressing the
emulator MASTER RESET button at the back of the emulator.
3. Clicking on the STOP button does not always halt the ICEBOX
execution. If the
application goes into Stop Mode or Halt Mode, the only way to halt the emulator
execution is by doing a Stop- Mode Recovery (as defined by the user program). The
application can also be reset by using the emulator MASTER RESET button; how-
ever, this reset the whole ICEBOX
.
4. RC oscillator emulation is not supported.
5. When the software enters STOP mode and the STOP debugging button control but-
ton is pressed, any SMR source on the application board is activated, and the emula-
tor jumps back to address 000C hex, which is normal. But when continuing the
program with a GO command from 000C hex, a POR reset is performed, resetting
all control registers.
6. The emulator cannot be operated while performing ESD/EMI testing on the target
board.
7. Ensure that the target cable is correctly aligned (pin1 to pin1) before inserting it into
the target system. Incorrect alignment can damage the emulator/or the target system.
8. All Z8 control registers are Write-Only unless stated otherwise.
9. The general-purpose registers values after Power-On Reset or at the initial emulator
use are different than the actual device. The emulator self-test always leaves the

same values in the general-purpose registers, while the real device has random or
undefined values.
10. Power supply ramp-up/rise time must be set so that when the minimum power-on
reset time (Toper) expires, the V

11. If the Program Counter jumps to an unknown address:
(a) Stack is not set to internal. Register %F8(P01M Reg) bit D2 are not set to
State1.
(b) The Stack Pointer Register %FE(SPH) and Register %FF(SPL) are not initial-
ized. For the internal Stack, SPH does not have to be initialized because it is not
used. The SPH and SPL are reset to 00H after any reset or Stop-Mode Recov-
ery.
(c) An instruction other than DI was used to disable interrupts.
(d) The Stack overflowed into the general-purpose register locations.
(e) When making changes to the IMR register, GLOBAL interrupts must be dis-
abled before using a DI instruction.
12. If the Program keeps resetting:
(a) Program Counter rolled over from value FFFF to 0000 and proceeded back to
the beginning of program.
(b) Watch-Dog Timer (WDT) was not refreshed from devices with the WDT fea-
ture.
The emulator must not be started with an OTP device or Adapter in the programming
socket, because the emulator might not start-up correctly.
A shorted PLCC or DIP OTP can crash the emulator when inserted into the OTP pro-
gramming socket. If a PLCC part is inserted and causes a temporary short, then the part
loses its functions. An attempt to perform BLANK CHECK on such a part causes the

13. The bits of non-implemented features for devices having PC ON register must be set
to State1 on the emulator.
14. When interrupts are enabled, setting a breakpoint after a Halt instruction, breaks the
emulator at the first instruction in the interrupt service routine that is serviced when
an IRQ occurs.
15. SCLK/16 Mode of SMR register is not supported.
16. The OTP activity bar is not proportionate to the address being processed.
