Keil PK51 with extended Infineon XC800 Support

Keil extends the C51 product line with support for the Infineon XC82x and XC83x series. The XC82x and XC83x series expands Infineon's 8-bit XC800 microcontroller family to provide more scalable performance for cost-sensitive automotive applications. The devices integrate a capacitive touch sense control interface, RTC, 10-bit ADC, Window Watchdog Timer, and a Compare/Capture Unit for any kind of motor control. The µVision IDE directly interfaces to Infineon DAvE for seamless device configuration.

The XC82x and XC83x series features a single pin DAP (Debug Access Port) that connects to µVision using the Infineon miniWiggler. The µVision IDE/Debugger supports Program Debugging and Flash Programming including the Boot Mode Index (BMI). All device features can be programmed and tested in a single environnment which eliminates the need for external tools or utilities.

"The Keil C51 Professional Developer's Kit is one of the industry's most popular compiler solutions for 8051-based microcontrollers. The latest version produces very high code quality for the Infineon XC82x and XC83x series," said Jürgen Hoika, Director of Marketing, Microcontrollers at Infineon. "With its µVision IDE, Keil also provides complete support and a direct interface to work with the Infineon development tools DAvE and miniWiggler which features an innovative single-pin debug interface DAP."
