... Contrariwise to traditional in-circuit emulation (where the target application is executed and emulated inside the emulator), PK-HCS12C32 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’ ...

... Note: even though USB specifications require low-speed devices to be used only with a captive or manufacturer-specific USB cable, we have decided to use a standard USB cable. We therefore recommend that you use the PK-HCS12C32 board with the USB cable provided or, if you use another USB cable, ensure that the cable length does not exceed 2 meters ...
