Development Support
With IBM tools and the IBM PowerPC Embedded Tools Program, you receive the support you need to
develop and debug your STB applications quickly.
IBM Tools
IBM offers Windows 95/98 − hosted development tools for STB applications that include:
• STB and processor reference design and evaluation kits, including board, compiler, debugger, ROM
source, schematics, etc.
• RISCWatch debugger, with in-circuit, ROM monitor, RTOS-aware debugging and real-time non-invasive
trace capability
• Metaware High C/C++ compiler, highly optimized for the PowerPC processors
Debug
The STB03xxx facilitates development through its JTAG test access port.
With IBM RISCWatch or other third-party debugger on a workstation, you can single-step the processor and
interrogate the internal processor state.
Additionally, the real-time debug port supports tracing the executed instruction stream out of the instruction
cache. The trace status signals provide trace information in real-time instruction trace debug mode. This
mode does not alter the performance of the processor.
Third-Party Tool Support
Through the IBM PowerPC Embedded Tools Program, you have access to hundreds of tools offered by over
75 industry-leading vendors. Often, the tools you currently use support PowerPC embedded processor prod-
ucts, such as the IBM STB010XX Digital Set-Top Box Integrated Controllers. For a list of the tools that are
offered, visit IBM’s tool support Web page at:
