Products
Lauterbach provides leading edge debug and trace tools. Developers can debug and control any ARC core (along with all of the other cores) in an SoC via a single debug interface, all at the same time. The core configuration is automatically detected including most ARC optional features. For cores implementing the ARC Trace (RTT), TRACE32® tools support real-time on- and off-chip tracing.
The TRACE32® PowerView software is the central front end for all debug and trace activities, no matter which hardware modules or software-only solutions and irrespective of which targets are used. It provides a uniform GUI in all projects and has enjoyed a very high reputation in the embedded community for many years, not only because of its almost unlimited, industry-leading debug and trace features, but also because of its exceptionally high stability and reliability.
For debugging any SoC implementing ARC cores, developers can start with a universal TRACE32® PowerDebug hardware module and target-specific debug probe. The debug system can extended with trace and logic analyzer modules for run-time analysis, code coverage, or in-depth troubleshooting.
ARC-specific Support Details
TRACE32® supports the ARC HS, ARC EM, ARC EV, ARC VPX and ARC 600/700 processor families.
Developers can explore and utilize all the powerful and well-known features of ARC cores with Lauterbach debug modules: full action point support; run-time memory access; flash programming; performance counters; and cache view. Everything is scriptable, enabling to repeat the same test-sequence over and over.
Lauterbach trace solutions for ARC support both the SmaRT on-chip trace and the much more powerful Synopsys ARC Trace, which can save the trace-data inside the target memory or emit it to one of Lauterbach’s PowerTrace tools. TRACE32® tools also support ARC Trace inside an Arm CoreSight trace infrastructure.
For early development requiring an accurate processor model, developers can connect the TRACE32® PowerView software directly to the Synopsys ARC nSIM instruction set simulator via the ARCINT API.
For debugging code in SystemC models developers can connect Trace32® PowerView with Synopsys Virtualizer via the multi-core debug (MCD) API for debugging code in full-processor models.
