System Specification

PathFinder Source Debugger
PathFinder provides the user-interface for the Ultra-SmartMX Development System. Controlled by button-bar, menus, mouse or automated Script files, PathFinder supports all popular 80C51 compilers and assemblers, including Keil C, IAR C and Altium-Tasking C, and the Keil 51MX C Compiler.

Code Coverage Measurement
Ashling’s CodeScan Code Coverage Measurement option for the Ultra Smart Card Development System identifies all tested, untested and unreachable code in a Smart Card program. This allows you to implement a repeatable, step-by-step program test procedure, to ensure that every byte of code has been tested, and to keep a formal record of test completeness.

STARS Performance Analyser
Ashling’s STARS (Software Test, Analysis and Reporting System) Performance Analyzer option for the Ultra-SmartMX measures the maximum, minimum and total execution time of every function in the program code, in real-time. You can measure and optimize the execution time of your Smart Card program, identify untested program paths, and verify conformance to an execution-time specification.

Secure Development Environment
Ashling’s range of development tools provides a comprehensive and powerful environment for all stages of development for NXP’ Smart Cards and Contact/Contactless (dual-interface) cards. Working in co-operation with NXP, Ashling’s products and procedures ensure the security and reliability of Smart Card programs.

Ashling support for all phases of NXP Smart Card Development:

• Compilation and Assembly of source code
• Develop, execute, test and debug using the emulator
• Test and debug the program and the application, using emulator and ISO7816 or Contactless Antenna or SIM/USIM probe
• Test Smart Card system application using emulator, probe and card reader
• Test, performance-analyze, verify and validate the program with Ultra-SmartMX STARS and CodeScan options
• Application-test the ROM code using the prototyping kit
