Hi Gerry,
I would like to recommend you an app note, the AN2727 Designing Hardware for the HCS12 D-Family:
cache.freescale.com/files/microcontrollers/doc/app_note/AN2727.pdf
Kindly go through it and check if you have anything different than stated in the app note such as:
- Power supply connections
- Control pin connections
- Oscillator options
etc.
Regards,
iggi
