Debuggers support NEC microcontroller families
Lauterbach Trace32 ICD and Trace32 PowerTools debuggers now support the NEC V850E and V850ES microcontroller families.
This processor uses CoreSight, a new ARM standard, which offers enhanced debugging and trace functionality at chip level.
With the help of the CoreSight components, the Lauterbach Trace32-ICD and PowerDebug modules, which can be connected to a host computer over USB or Ethernet, support a wide range of additional functions.
Cortex A8 supports debugging and tracing of a single core as well as multicore debugging of a complex on-chip system.
Using the CoreSight trace funnel, different trace sources can be bundled, compressed, and output over just one interface.
With Trace32 PowerTrace, it is possible to use the ETM CoreSight components to record the program flow of Cortex A8 in real time.
In addition, extended Neon instructions and access to the Neon registers are also supported as well as access to the cache and the MMUs.
An unlimited number of software breakpoints in the RAM and Flash memories, debugging at HLL and assembler levels, and support of the most widely used C and C++ compilers are standard features.
