5. Software Setup
The included CD-ROM contains the Silicon Laboratories Integrated Development Environment (IDE), Keil software
8051 tools, and additional documentation. Insert the CD-ROM into your PC’s CD-ROM drive. An installer will
automatically launch, allowing you to install the IDE software or read documentation by clicking buttons on the
installation panel. If the installer does not automatically start when you insert the CD-ROM, run autorun.exe found
in the root directory of the CD-ROM. Refer to the readme.txt file on the CD-ROM for the latest information
regarding known IDE problems and restrictions.
6. Silicon Laboratories Integrated Development Environment (IDE)
The Silicon Laboratories IDE integrates a source code editor, source-level debugger, and in-system Flash
programmer. The IDE uses the Keil 8051 Tools by default. An evaluation version of the Keil tools with a 2 k code
size limit is included with this kit. The use of third-party compilers and assemblers is also supported.
6.1. System Requirements
The Silicon Laboratories IDE requirements are as follows:
6.2. Using the Keil Software 8051 Tools with the Silicon Laboratories IDE
To perform source-level debugging with the IDE, you must configure the Keil 8051 tools to generate an absolute
object file in the OMF-51 format with object extensions and debug records enabled. You may build the OMF-51
absolute object file by calling the Keil 8051 tools at the command line (e.g., batch file or make file) or by using the
project manager built into the IDE. The default configuration when using the Silicon Laboratories IDE project
manager enables object extension and debug record generation. Refer to “AN104: Integrating Keil 8051 Tools into
the Silicon Labs IDE” in the “SiLabs\MCU\Documentation\Appnotes” directory for additional information on using the
Keil 8051 tools with the Silicon Laboratories IDE.
To build an absolute object file using the Silicon Laboratories IDE project manager, you must first create a project.
A project consists of a set of files, IDE configuration, debug views, and a target build configuration (a list of files and
tool configurations used as input to the assembler, compiler, and linker when building an output object file).
The following sections illustrate the steps necessary to manually create a project with one or more source files,
build a program, and download the program to the target in preparation for debugging. (The IDE will automatically
create a single-file project using the currently open and active source file if you select Build/Make Project before a
project is defined.)
6.2.1. Creating a New Project
Perform the following steps:
1. Select Project->New Project to open a new project and reset all configuration settings to default.
2. Select File->New File to open an editor window. Create your source file(s), and save the file(s) with a
3. Right-click on “New Project” in the Project Window. Select Add files to project. Select files in the file browser,
4. For each of the files in the Project Window that you want assembled, compiled, and linked into the target build,

and click Open. Continue adding files until all project files have been added.
right-click on the file name, and select Add file to build. Each file will be assembled or compiled as appropriate
(based on its file extension) and linked into the build of the absolute object file.
Right-click on “New Project” in the Project Window. Select Add Groups to project. Add predefined groups, or
add customized groups. Right-click on the group name, and choose Add file to group. Select the files to be
added. Continue adding files until all project files have been added.
