Setting Up the Support
This section provides information on how to set up the support. Information
covers the following topics:
H
Channel group definitions
H
Clocking options
H
Symbol table files
Remember that the information in this section is specific to the operations and
functions of the TMS 540 PowerPC 60X support on any Tektronix logic analyzer
for which it can be purchased. Information on basic operations describes general
tasks and functions.
Before you acquire and disassemble data, you need to load the support and
specify setups for clocking and triggering as described in the information on
basic operations. The support provides default values for each of these setups,
but you can change them as needed.
Channel Group Definitions
The software automatically defines channel groups for the support. The channel
groups for the PowerPC 60X microprocessor are Address, Hi_Data, Lo_Data,
Control, Transfer, Tsiz, Com_60X, PPC601_4, PPC603_4 , PPC604, Misc, and
Clock. If you want to know which signal is in which group, refer to the channel
assignment tables beginning on page 3–4.
Clocking Options
The TMS 540 support offers a microprocessor-specific clocking mode for the
PowerPC 60X microprocessor. This clocking mode is the default selection
whenever you load the PPC60X support.
NOTE
. For the PPC601 microprocessor, you might not acquire correct data when
you connect the HI:CK3 and LO:CK3 channels to the BCLK_EN* signal. Refer
to the description of the PPC601 SYSCLK signal under Requirements and
Restrictions in the Getting Started chapter.
