◆What is PowerDebug? It is a high-performance and flexible debugging system used for embedded software development. It connects to devices via on-chip debugging interfaces such as JTAG and DAP for software debugging. Additionally, it has extensibility features that further enhance debugging efficiency, such as real-time tracing and logic analyzer functions. ◆Features of PowerDebug - Modular configuration: A flexible design that allows for the addition of parts (modules) later based on required functionalities. - Wide compatibility: Supports various microcontrollers and processor architectures (such as Arm and RISC-V). - Efficient debugging possible even when the target changes, thanks to a common debugging interface for chips/architectures. ◆Basic Configuration PowerDebug main module + debugging probe for target connection. ◆Extension Modules Trace Module: Analyzes program execution history and code coverage to improve software quality and troubleshoot issues. Logic Analyzer Module: Measures external signals (digital/analog) synchronized with internal chip operations.

- In high-reliability embedded products such as automotive and industrial equipment, analyzing and tracing complex bugs has become increasingly difficult year by year. - TRACE32 plays a significant role in enabling real-time tracing at the instruction level and multicore simultaneous debugging, greatly improving development efficiency and quality. ☆ Supports over 150 architectures! (Examples) ARM, Infineon, PowerPC, Renesas, Qualcomm, Intel/x86, RISC-V, STMicroelectronics, Synopsys, and many more... It is compatible with numerous chip manufacturers and architectures. Covers a wide range from legacy chips to the latest chips!

◆ Efficient Debugging & Tracing of Popular Multi-Core Systems As various multi-core systems, including homogeneous and heterogeneous cores, become more widespread, software development becomes increasingly challenging as the systems grow in complexity. ◆ With TRACE32 - It is possible to debug and trace applications, operating systems, hypervisors, and other software running on multiple cores on a multi-core system. - More than 150 cores can be debugged, regardless of whether they are homogeneous, heterogeneous, or a combination of both. - It also supports debugging of complex heterogeneous multi-chip systems composed of two or more SoCs. ◆ TRACE32's Proposal In complex systems such as multi-core, traditional Go/Break debugging may be insufficient. Lauterbach suggests utilizing off-chip tracing for such debugging. Off-chip tracing allows for the tracing of multi-core operations without interfering with the running application, enabling all data to be recorded on high-capacity memory on the tracing hardware or streamed to a host, which aids in analyzing the causes of defects and improves development efficiency.

This is a debugger and trace tool designed to facilitate smooth software development for ARM Cortex-M series microcontrollers and processors. ☆ Simple yet high-performance - Integrated debugger and trace functionality: Achieve efficient development with a single system. - While there are limitations on expandability and the size of the built-in trace memory, it offers debugging capabilities that are comparable to high-end models. - Supports debugging of multi-core devices. ☆ Advanced trace support - Supports up to 4-pin parallel trace ports: Visualize complex processes! - Simultaneously check software operations and external signals: Enables detailed analysis in conjunction with a logic analyzer. ☆ Representative products featuring Arm Cortex-M cores - Renesas: RA family - ST Micro: STM32 family - Infineon: XMC1000/4000/7000 - NXP: LPC series, Kinetis series, i.MXRT1100/1000 series, and many others.

◆What is μTrace? It is an all-in-one debugging and tracing system that combines a debugger and a tracer. It is dedicated to Arm Cortex-M or RISC-V RV32 and does not have scalability to other chips. As a result, it is a cost-effective product. It is particularly powerful when used with microcontrollers that have up to 4-pin parallel trace ports. ◆Features of μTrace - There is no difference in basic debugging functions such as Go/Break, memory dump, and OS-aware debugging compared to the higher-end product PowerDebug. - The built-in trace memory is 256MB, capable of acquiring trace information with a maximum of 4-bit parallel output. Streaming to a host is also possible, making it effective for analyzing hard-to-reproduce bugs during long-duration tracing. - It supports multi-core systems as standard if the cores are the same. - It can be expanded with a logic analyzer. ◆Basic Configuration μTrace ◆Expansion Module Logic Analyzer Module: Measures external signals synchronized with internal chip operations (digital/analog).
