Inverse Assembler Generated PC (Software
Address) Label
In the HP 16600A/16700A-series logic analysis system, the CPU32
inverse assembler generates a "PC" label. The PC label is displayed as
another column in the Listing tool. This label is also known as the
Software Address generated by the inverse assembler.
The "Goto this line in listing" commands in the HP 16600A/16700A-
series logic analysis system perform a pattern search on the PC label in
the Listing display (when an inverse assembler is loaded). Because the
inverse assembler is called for each line that is searched, the search
can be slow, especially with a deep memory logic analyzer.
Also, a single source code line will generate many assembly
instructions. The "Goto this line in listing" commands will not find a
given source code line unless the first assembly instruction generated
from the source line has been acquired by the logic analyzer.
For example, if the compiler unrolls a loop in the source code, the trace
could begin after the first assembly instruction of the loop has been
executed. A "Goto this line in listing" command would not find the
source line.
