nels are required. All the digital and analog peripherals are functional and work correctly while debugging.
All the peripherals (except for the ADC and SMBus) are stalled when the MCU is halted, during single
stepping, or at a breakpoint in order to keep them synchronized.
The C8051F360DK development kit provides all the hardware and software necessary to develop applica-
tion code and perform in-circuit debugging with the C8051F36x MCUs. The kit includes software with a
developer's studio and debugger, an integrated 8051 assembler, and a debug adapter. It also has a target
application board with the associated MCU installed and prototyping area, plus the required cables, and
wall-mount power supply. The Development Kit requires a PC running Windows98SE or later.
The Silicon Labs IDE interface is a vastly superior developing and debugging configuration, compared to
standard MCU emulators that use on-board "ICE Chips" and require the MCU in the application board to
be socketed. Silicon Labs' debug paradigm increases ease of use and preserves the performance of the
precision analog peripherals.

C8051F36x devices include up to 39 I/O pins (four byte-wide Ports and one 7-bit-wide Port). The
C8051F36x Ports behave like typical 8051 Ports with a few enhancements. Each Port pin may be config-
ured as an analog input or a digital I/O pin. Pins selected as digital I/Os may additionally be configured for
push-pull or open-drain output. The “weak pullups” that are fixed on typical 8051 devices may be globally
disabled, providing power savings capabilities.
