C8051F336/7/8/9 C8051F336 DEVELOPMENT KIT USERS GUIDE 1. Relevant Devices The C8051F338 Development Kit is intended as a development platform for the microcontrollers in the C8051F336/7/8/9 MCU family. Notes: The target board included in this kit is provided with a pre-soldered C8051F338 MCU (QFN24 package). Code developed on the C8051F338 can be easily ported to the other members of this MCU family. Refer to the C8051F336/7/8/9 data sheet for the differences between the members of this MCU family. The C8051F336/7/8/9 family of devices are code-compatible with the C8051F330/1/2/3/4/5 family of devices. 2. Kit Contents The C8051F336 Development Kit contains the following items: C8051F338 Target Board C8051Fxxx Development Kit Quick-Start Guide AC to DC Power Adapter USB Debug Adapter (USB to Debug Interface) USB Cable CD-ROM 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 the DEBUG connector on the target board with the 10-pin ribbon cable. 2. Connect one end of the USB cable to the USB connector on the USB Debug Adapter. 3. Connect the other end of the USB cable to a USB Port on the PC. 4. Connect the ac/dc power adapter to power jack P1 on the target board. Notes: Use the Reset button in the IDE to reset the target when connected using a USB Debug Adapter. 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.

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 C8051F338 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. In the Part Selection step of the wizard, select from the list of installed parts only the parts to use during development. Choosing parts and families in this step affects the displayed or filtered parts in the later device selection menus. Choose the C8051F33x family by checking the C8051F33x check box. Modify the part selection at any time by accessing the Part Management dialog from the Window Preferences Simplicity Studio Part Management menu item. Simplicity Studio can detect if certain toolchains are not activated. If the Licensing Helper is displayed after completing the Setup Environment wizard, follow the instructions to activate the toolchain. 2 Rev. 0.3
