1.2 What’s included with an SDK?
The SDK contains all the required elements for a variety of usages.
For the user who would like to evaluate the application in their own hardware, pre-built image files are
available. Loading these image files into a 78M6613 will allow running the application as provided. A
demonstration PC-based graphical user interface (GUI) is also provided and may be used to send
configuration commands to and read out measurement data from the PSU application.
Users who would like to develop their own applications have access to application level source code to
use as a baseline. Energy measurement functions are provided in object code format and with a
documented application programming interface (API). An SDK User Guide describes how to use
development tools to modify the project code. Post processing tools, such as CRC insertion also included
in the SDK package.
The 78M6613 PSU SDK includes the following components:
• This Quick Start Guide
• 78M6613 PSU SDK 2.0 User Guide
• 78M6613 PSU Demo Application User Guide
• 78M6613 Firmware Boot Loader Functional Specification
• EMSoC SDK 2.0 Serial Asynchronous Interface Protocol Specification
• Additional application notes
1.3 Other Development Tools
This section describes other items available for purchase through Maxim or Third Parties.
1.3.1 Socketed Flash Programming Board
The 78M6613 Socket Board is a socketed fixture for flash programming 78M6613 devices in small
quantities. It allows for loading program memory into 78M6613 SoCs via either the In-Circuit Emulator
(ICE) interface, TFP2, or the serial Boot Loader (UART) interface if the device already contains the Boot
Loader in flash. The 78M6613 Socket Board (P/N 78M6613-SOCKET32) includes:
• 78M6613 Socket Board
• CDROM with USB Driver, GUI software, and documentation
