Debug Module (DBG) (64K)
19.1 Introduction
The DBG module implements an on-chip ICE (in-circuit emulation) system and allows non-intrusive
debug of application software by providing an on-chip trace buffer with flexible triggering capability. The
trigger also can provide extended breakpoint capacity. The on-chip ICE system is optimized for the HCS08
8-bit architecture and supports 64K bytes or 128K bytes of memory space.
19.1.1 Features
The on-chip ICE system includes these distinctive features:
• Three comparators (A, B, and C) with ability to match addresses in 64K space
— Dual mode, Comparators A and B used to compare addresses
— Full mode, Comparator A compares address and Comparator B compares data
— Can be used as triggers and/or breakpoints
— Comparator C can be used as a normal hardware breakpoint
— Loop1 capture mode, Comparator C is used to track most recent COF event captured into FIFO
• Tag and Force type breakpoints
• Nine trigger modes
— A
— A Or B
— A Then B
— A And B, where B is data (Full mode)
— A And Not B, where B is data (Full mode)
— Event Only B, store data
— A Then Event Only B, store data
— Inside Range, A
≤
Address
≤
B
— Outside Range, Address
< Α
or Address
>
B
• FIFO for storing change of flow information and event only data
— Source address of conditional branches taken
— Destination address of indirect JMP and JSR instruction
— Destination address of interrupts, RTI, RTC, and RTS instruction
— Data associated with Event B trigger modes
