Support Description
The TMS 540 microprocessor support package disassembles data from systems
that are based on Motorola MPC601, MPC603, and MPC604 microprocessors,
and IBM PPC601, PPC603 and PPC604 microprocessors. The Motorola
MPC604 and IBM PPC604 microprocessors are only supported through the
software setup and disassembler.
The support runs on a compatible Tektronix logic analyzer equipped with a
136-channel module or a 192-channel module.
Refer to information on basic operations to determine how many modules and
probes your logic analyzer needs to meet the minimum channel requirements for
the TMS 540 microprocessor support.
Table 1–1 shows the microprocessors and packages from which the TMS 540
support can acquire and disassemble data.
