CHAPTER 1 OVERVIEW
The IE-V850E-MC-A and IE-V850E-MC are in-circuit emulators that are used to efficiently debug hardware and
software during the development of systems that employ the V850E1, V850E/MA1, V850E/MA2, or V850E/SV2, and
the V850E/IA1 or V850E/IA2, respectively.
They incorporate functions such as a break/trace function using events, a coverage function for program
performance evaluation, and a timer/counter function.
To perform debugging, the option board (sold separately) corresponding to the relevant device product must be
connected.
The IE-V850E-MC is an in-circuit emulator for VDD = 5.0 V.
The IE-V850E-MC-A is an in-circuit emulator for VDD = 3.3 V.
