This document is the user manual for SofTec Microsystems' product IDB-HC08GZ Evaluation Board. The evaluation board demonstrates the capabilities of the 32-pin MC68HC908GZ/GR devices. It can be used as a standalone application or with an emulator system, such as inDART-HC08. The user manual provides detailed information and instructions on the product.
The IDB-HC08GZ Evaluation Board demonstrates the capabilities of the 32‑pin MC68HC908GZ/GR devices. It includes an MC68HC908GZ16 microcontroller in a QFP32 package, a ZIF socket, a standard MONO8 connector, eight DIP‑switch jumpers, LEDs, a potentiometer, and power connectors.
The manual explains how to power the board using either the unregulated 9‑12 V DC (200 mA) connector or the regulated 5 V DC connector, how to configure jumpers for standalone mode, and how to use the board with an in‑circuit debugger/programmer in host mode. Detailed pin definitions for the MONO8 connector are also provided.
