Lauterbach has supported debuggers for the MicroBlaze processor, starting with version 4 up to the newest version 7, to enable Xilinx embedded customers to quickly identify and fix bugs.

Lauterbach is supporting real-time tracing for version 7 of the MicroBlaze processor from Xilinx Optimised for embedded applications in Xilinx FPGAs, the MicroBlaze processor is a flexible 32bit Harvard RISC architecture with a rich instruction set and optional memory management unit (MMU)

Lauterbach has supported debuggers for the MicroBlaze processor, starting with version 4 up to the newest version 7, to enable Xilinx embedded customers to quickly identify and fix bugs.

The latest addition to the range of development tools for the MicroBlaze processor is an off-chip trace solution.

Lauterbach's real-time trace does not use scarce on-board FPGA memory resources for storing trace data, but provides up to 512Mbyte of external high-speed trace memory.

Basic features of the trace solution are program and data trace, which allow designers to reconstruct the program flow.

The tool allows statistical analysis of function run-times, variable usage (read/write), analysis of code coverage on module and function level, and performance analysis of functions, tasks and variables.

The context tracking system (CTS) enables debugging using collected trace data - for example setting breakpoints, step, back-step and execute.
