Silicon Laboratories


Design Support

Every microcontroller from Silicon Laboratories includes on-chip debug circuitry that supports non-intrusive, full-speed, in-circuit debugging of the production part installed in the user's end application, eliminating the sockets, external emulation hardware, and performance-degrading cables typical of emulators. Emulators are never required.

Silicon Laboratories development kits come complete with all required hardware and software. The ToolStick evaluation platform is a fully contained evaluation system in a USB stick that demonstrates Silicon Laboratories' development tools.

Silicon Laboratories integrated development environment combines an editor, project manager, code development tools and a debugger into a single, intuitive environment for code development and in-system debug. No additional target RAM, program memory or communications channels are required. The development kits come complete with integrated 8051 macro assembler, C compiler, and linker.
