  • Page 83 CHAPTER 7 HARDWARE SPECIFICATIONS [Cable specifications] Two types of target interface cables (IC clip type (TYPE 1) and connector type (TYPE 2)) are supplied. Use the appropriate cable for the situation. If the supplied cables cannot be used because of the specifications of the target and the user prepares a cable, keep the cable length to within 40 cm and use materials with frequency characteristics equivalent to those of the supplied cables.

    APPENDIX A NOTES ON DESIGNING A TARGET Design a board using a flash microcontroller if you want to study the possibility of on-board writing. Pin processing The target may have pins that require special processing when the mode is changed from normal operating mode to flash memory programming mode, or pins that go to high-impedance during programming.
