4. Getting Started
The software to download, debug and communicate with the target microcontroller must be downloaded from
www.silabs.com/toolstick. The following software is necessary to build a project, download code to, and
communicate with the target microcontroller:
The Silicon Laboratories IDE is described in more detail in Section 5. The Keil Demo Tools include a compiler,
assembler, and linker. The limits of the demo version are: 1) the resulting object code is limited to 2 kBytes and 2)
the floating point library is not included. ToolStick Terminal communicates with the UART portion of the ToolStick
Base Adapter to the microcontroller. It can also read/write the two GPIO pins available on the ToolStick Base
Adapter.
Other useful, but optional, software that is provided on the ToolStick website includes:
Configuration Wizard 2 presents device peripheral options in a GUI and simplifies the generation of peripheral
initialization code. The program is configurable to provide the output in C or assembly. The Keil uVision2 and
uVision3 Drivers enable Keil uVision IDEs to debug Silicon Laboratories MCUs.
The software described above is provided in multiple download packages. The “ToolStick Development Tools”
package includes the Keil Tools, example code, documentation including User’s Guides and data sheets, and the
ToolStick Terminal application. The IDE, Configuration Wizard 2, and the Keil uVision Drivers are available as
separate downloads. After downloading and installing the required software from www.silabs.com/toolstick, see the
following sections for information regarding the Silicon Laboratories IDE and running one of the demo applications.
