inDART-STX Series
In-Circuit, Real-Time Debuggers/Programmers for
STMicroelectronics ST FIVE and ST7 FLASH Devices
Overview
inDART-STX is a powerful entry-level tool for
STMicroelectronics ST FIVE- and ST7-based
systems. inDART-STX takes advantage of the ISP
(In-System Programming) feature to program the
FLASH memory of the target microcontrollers.
inDART-STX seamlessly integrates into your favorite
development environment: STMicroelectronics
STVD7 and Metrowerks CodeWarrior for ST7 (if you
are working with ST7 devices) or STMicroelectronics
Visual FIVE and Raisonance RKit-ST5 (if you are
working with FIVE devices). STVD7, Visual FIVE
and RKit-ST5 are conveniently included with
inDART-STX, thus providing you with everything you
need to quick-start your projects: you can write,
compile, download (program), in-circuit emulate and
debug your code right out of the box. The
debugger/programmer unit is connected to the host
PC through a USB port, while the 10-pin connector
of the product fits into the target’s ISP connector. On
Design Kit packages, a full-featured experiment
board for a specific microcontroller is also included.
The inDART Technology
Contrariwise to traditional in-circuit emulation (where
the target application is executed and emulated
inside the emulator), inDART-STX uses the very
same target microcontroller to carry on in-circuit
execution. This means that all microcontroller’s
peripherals (timers, A/D converters, I/O pins, etc.)
are not reconstructed or simulated by an external
device, but are the very same target
microcontroller’s peripherals. Moreover, the inDART-
STX debugging approach ensures that the target
microcontroller’s electrical characteristics (pull-ups,
low-voltage operations, I/O thresholds, etc.) are
100% guaranteed.
In-System Programming (ISP)
The ISP feature allows you to update the content of
the FLASH program memory while the chip is still
plugged in the application board. ISP programming
uses a serial protocol to interface a programming
tool like inDART-STX. The ISP interface can be
implemented with a minumum number of added

components and board area impact. inDART-STX
uses the standard, 10-pin ISP connector to program
and in-circuit emulate the target device. The
diagrams below show typical ISP interfaces for both
ST FIVE and ST7 devices.
Evaluation Boards
On Design Kit packages, a full-featured,
microcontroller-specific evaluation board is also
included. Evaluation boards feature a socketed
microcontroller, DIP-switches, jumpers, LEDs, push-
buttons, potentiometers, prototyping area and an
ISP connector and can be used for
evaluation/experiments in the absence of a target
application board.
