A
Look at the M16C Lineup
USING
HEW
I
spent a considerable amount of time on the RenesasInteractive
web site familiarizing myself with the M16C family and
playing with HEW and the demo in the Renesas VirtuaLab
before my SKP16C62P StarterKit Plus arrived here at
the Imagine That design complex. Giving myself a head
start allowed me to jump right into the exercising the
tools and hardware when it arrived by carrier owl from
Hogwarts, eh, Renesas. No magic was involved. However,
I wanted to write an application for the M16C/62P, and
the SKP demo was written in C. I cringed at the thought,
yet in going over the demo it had all of the routines
I needed for what I had in mind (see Figure 3).

in the demo program for the SKPM16C62P StarterKit
Plus. Converted potentiometer and thermistor values
are displayed on the LCD while buttons are monitored
for key presses. |
