3.5 Viewing a peripheral
To view a peripheral, you must open it by clicking on the corresponding item in the peripheral
tree. For example, to view the Port 1, double click on the “IOPORT1” icon. The Port 1 view will
appear:
This view shows the state of each of the port’s pins. Green indicates a value of one and red a
value of zero. It is possible to connect each pin of the port to a Net, to VCC, to Ground or no
connection. This is done by clicking on the LED. The registers also let you control the peripheral.
With the test application described above, click on the Run button to launch the execution
and click on the Pause button . You will then see the LEDs counting.
Note: Currently, only UART is fully simulated in order to provide “putchar/printf” capabilities.
For the other peripherals, the views provide a comprehensive presentation of the internal
registers, but the dynamic behavior of these registers exists only when running the program on
real hardware via a JTAG connection (see “Debugging with Hardware Tools”).
