Silicon Laboratories USB DEBUG ADAPTER Run Power Stop C8051F53x/52x C8051F530A DEVELOPMENT KIT USERS GUIDE 1. Relevant Devices The C8051F530 Development Kit is intended as a development platform for microcontrollers in the C8051F53x/ 52x MCU family. Code developed on the C8051F530 can be easily ported to the other members of this MCU family. 2. Kit Contents The C8051F530 Development Kit contains the following items: C8051F530A Target Board C8051Fxxx Development Kit Quick-Start Guide AC to DC Power Adapter USB Debug Adapter (USB to Debug Interface) USB Cable The development kit target board contains two C8051F530 microcontrollers that can communicate through an LIN network. One of the C8051F530 (U2) can also be connected to a CP2102 USB to UART bridge and directly connected to two analog signals and a Voltage Reference Signal Input. 3. Hardware Setup Using a USB Debug Adapter The target board is connected to a PC running the Silicon Laboratories IDE via the USB Debug Adapter as shown in Figure 1. 1. Connect the USB Debug Adapter to one of the DEBUG connectors on the target board (HDR1 or HDR2) with the 10-pin ribbon cable. The recommended connection is to the HDR2 (connected to U2) as this microcontroller can be connected to the CP2102 USB to UART bridge. 2. Verify that shorting blocks are installed on J13 and J14 to supply power to the target devices. 3. Connect one end of the USB cable to the USB connector on the USB Debug Adapter. 4. Connect the other end of the USB cable to a USB Port on the PC. 5. Connect the ac/dc power adapter to power jack P5 on the target board.

Use the Reset button in the IDE to reset the target when connected using a USB Debug Adapter. 2. Remove power from the target board and the USB Debug Adapter before connecting or disconnecting the ribbon cable from the target board. Connecting or disconnecting the cable when the devices have power can damage the device and/or the USB Debug Adapter. 4. 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 C8051F530 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 Studio Simplicity 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. 2 Rev. 0.4
