System Window Control
The system window control is located in the upper left corner of windows and some dialogs. Clicking on this control
usually pops up a menu that has the items “Minimize,” “Maximize,” and “Close.”
Target
Refers to user hardware.
Target Application
Software residing on the target board.
Target Board
The circuitry and programmable device that makes up the target application.
Target Processor
The microcontroller device on the target application board.
Template
Lines of text that you build for inserting into your files at a later time. The MPLAB Editor stores templates in template
files.
Term
Represents an immediate value such as a definition through the assembly .equ directive.
Toolbar
A row or column of icons that you can click on to execute MPLAB IDE/MPLAB X IDE functions.
Trace
An emulator or simulator function that logs program execution. The emulator logs program execution into its trace
buffer which is uploaded to the MPLAB IDE/MPLAB X IDE trace window.
Trace Memory
Trace memory contained within the emulator. Trace memory is sometimes called the trace buffer.
Trace Macro
A macro that will provide trace information from emulator data. Since this is a software trace, the macro must be
added to code, the code must be recompiled or reassembled, and the target device must be programmed with this
code before trace will work.
Trigger Output
Trigger output refers to an emulator output signal that can be generated at any address or address range, and is
independent of the trace and breakpoint settings. Any number of trigger output points can be set.
Trigraphs
Three-character sequences, all starting with ??, that are defined by ISO C as replacements for single characters.
Unassigned Section
A section which has not been assigned to a specific target memory block in the linker command file. The linker must
find a target memory block in which to allocate an unassigned section.
Uninitialized Data
Data which is defined without an initial value. In C,
int myVar;
