TMS 540 PowerPC 60X Microprocessor Support Instruction Manual
ix
Preface: Microprocessor Support Documentation
This instruction manual contains specific information about the TMS 540
PowerPC 60X microprocessor support package and is part of a set of information
on how to operate this product on compatible Tektronix logic analyzers.
If you are familiar with operating microprocessor support packages on the logic
analyzer for which the TMS 540 PowerPC 60X support was purchased, you will
probably only need this instruction manual to set up and run the support.
If you are not familiar with operating microprocessor support packages, you will
need to supplement this instruction manual with information on basic operations
to set up and run the support.
Information on basic operations of microprocessor support packages is included
with each product. Each logic analyzer has basic information that describes how
to perform tasks common to support packages on that platform. This information
can be in the form of online help, an installation manual, or a user manual.
This manual provides detailed information on the following topics:
H
Connecting the logic analyzer to the system under test
H
Setting up the logic analyzer to acquire data from the system under test
H
Acquiring and viewing disassembled data
H
Using the probe adapter
Manual Conventions
This manual uses the following conventions:
H
The term disassembler refers to the software that disassembles bus cycles
into instruction mnemonics and cycle types.
H
The phrase “information on basic operations” refers to online help, an
installation manual, or a basic operations of microprocessor supports user
manual.
H
In the information on basic operations, the term XXX or P54C used in field
selections and file names must be replaced with PPC60X. This is the name of
the microprocessor in field selections and file names you must use to operate
the PowerPC 60X support.
H
The term system under test (SUT) refers to the microprocessor-based system
from which data will be acquired.
