No wait states for in-circuit emulator
Lauterbach now provides full support for the ST10F276 with its Trace32-Fire in-circuit emulator.
Debugger gains awareness of operating system
Microprocessor development tools from Lauterbach now provide kernel awareness for the Windows CE.net operating system from Microsoft.
Since that time, the company has developed into a global market leader for these products, passing the magical 25,000 mark in debugger sales in March 2004.
This figure represents sales of all in-circuit debuggers and trace port modules that support BDM, JTAG, COP, ETM, OCDS and Nexus interfaces.
These tools were first introduced to the market for Motorola processors in 1994.
Today, they are used in the development departments of the most major branches of industry, such as automotive supplies, consumer electronics, avionics, mobile telephony, telecommunications, and many more.
The future of these products looks extremely positive as all new product releases on the microcontroller market are now equipped with one of the above-mentioned debugging interfaces and can therefore respond to the current demand for microcontrollers and tools that support on-chip trace capabilities.
Trace32 PowerTools now achieve a level of efficiency that was previously only known in connection with emulators.
Many semiconductor manufacturers consult Lauterbach Datentechnik at a very early phase in chip design to provide optimum information content for tool users.
This also ensures that Lauterbach debuggers are made available at the same time as the first silicon rolls out.
Because the trend in processors, DSPs, and multicore solutions still focuses on higher speed requirements and integration capability, the Lauterbach range of Trace32 PowerTools and additional analyser modules will continue to expand as rapidly as it has done in the past.
