ST10F276Z5 registers partly supported by the

emulator

This section describes all the emulation issues caused by ST10F276Z5 registers that are

implemented in the emulator in a different way in the ST10F276Z5 (new bits added or

modified bit functionality).

4.1

WDTCON register

Description: this register is implemented in the ST10 bond-out chip but not all the bits used

to identify the reset cause are implemented.

Software impact: the cause of the reset cannot by known by software when using

emulators.

ST10F276Z5 emulation impact: it is proposed:

●

to simulate the reset causes during emulation,

●

to write the reset procedure so as to detect, via the IDCHIP register, which of the

ST10F276Z5 or the bond-out is running the software. Then, to use a non-initialized

variable (initialized by the user before running emulation) to check the reset cause

when running code with the bond-out.
