Debuggers offer new microcontroller
support
Lauterbach's existing MIPS32 debugger has been enhanced for the Microchip PIC32 family.
Lauterbach's Trace32 ICD and Trace32 PowerTools debuggers now support members of the new Microchip Technology PIC32 family of 32bit microcontrollers These chips are based on a high-performance MIPS32 M4K core, running at a maximum clock rate of 72MHz and are pin and peripheral compatible with the Microchip 16bit PIC MCU and dsPIC DSC families

Debuggers support NEC microcontroller families
Lauterbach Trace32 ICD and Trace32 PowerTools debuggers now support the NEC V850E and V850ES microcontroller families.
Lauterbach's existing MIPS32 debugger has been enhanced for the Microchip PIC32 family.
It supports efficient and user-friendly debugging at the C or C++ level over the on-chip JTAG interface.
The debugger can quickly access all internal chip units such as the eight hardware breakpoints, peripheral units, registers and flash and RAM memories.
It connects to all host computers running Windows or Linux over USB 2.0, Ethernet 10/100 or 1000 Mbit/s, over which the internal 512Kbyte Flash memory can be programmed, as well as numerous external flash units.
Trace32 PowerTools have unlimited number of software breakpoints in the RAM and Flash memory areas, debugging at the HLL and assembler levels and support of the most commonly used C and C++ compilers are standard features, including support for the Microchip MPLAB C32 C Compiler.
Existing users of MIPS32 debugger software can be easily updated to support the PIC32 family of microcontrollers.
