Hi

 

I am new to PowerPC and I am supposed to use MPC565 processor and I want to get familiar with the Processor like coding and all.  I want to Debug the Code written but I am unable to do so.  I dont have any target board and I am planning to buy one.  But before buying I want to know how to control port pins and all.  Is there any simulator which can be used for this purpose.

 

Thankx in Advance

The CodeWarrior for MPC55x tools have an instruction set simulator that you can use to debug code. However, although you can set bits in control registers, there's nothing to indicate an output on a pin. More information on the simulator can be found in its reference manual.
