Using the Emulator with a Debugger
Several prominent companies design and sell state-of-the-art source
debuggers which work with the HP emulation module and emulation
probe.
Benefits of using a debugger
The debugger will enable you to control the execution of your
processor from the familiar environment of your debugger. Using a
debugger lets you step through your code at the source-code level.
With a debugger connection, you can set breakpoints, single-step
through source code, examine variables, and modify source code
variables from the debugger interface. The debugger can also be used
to download executable code to your target system.
Using a debugger to connect to the emulator allows the entire design
team to have a consistent interface from software development to
hardware/software integration.
Debugger interfaces must be ordered directly from the debugger
vendor.
Compatibility with other logic analysis system tools
You can use your logic analysis system to collect and analyze trace data
while you use your debugger. If you are using an X windows
workstation or a PC with an X terminal emulator, you can display the
logic analyzer windows right next to your debugger.
