RICE3000 Real Time In-Circuit Emulator

RICE3000 is a cost effective and powerful tool designed to emulate all Microchip's PICmicro microcontrollers and shorten the development cycle of your PIC applications. It is a full-featured in-circuit emulator and comprises an emulator base and different emulation modules that support various members of the Microchip family.

The emulation probes use the special bondout chipset from Microchip Technology to allow full speed and real-time emulation. All the emulation modules that use the latest emulation chipsets are able to access both the PIC processor resource and the data bus paths during the execution.

RICE3000 real-time emulator offers versatile and powerful features that allow you to quickly debug your firmware code. It does so by using powerful real-time trace and/or setting break points on program or stepping through program execution, so you can examine each state of the program at any given spot. You can also monitor internal file registers, data bus activity and can measure timing between events.

RICE3000 runs under Windows 98/ME/2000/XP on Pentium or compatibles PC, including notebook and desktop computers.

Real-time and full-speed emulation (Up to 40MHz).

Flash-based firmware for easy product updates.

Fast downloading and data retrieval during signle stepping.

2.7 volt to 5 volt emulation range.

Standard 64K-word installed program memory, expandable to 1M-word (2M-Byte).
