Chapter 5: Using Debuggers
Several companies sell source debuggers which work with the HP
emulation probe/module.
Benefits of Using a Debugger
A debugger lets you:
• control (start and stop) the execution of your microprocessor
• step through your code at the source-code level
• set breakpoints
• single-step through source code
• examine variables
• modify source code variables
• download executable code to your target system
Compatibility with Other Logic Analysis System Tools
You can use your logic analysis system to trace and analyze target
system execution while you use your debugger.
If the computer running the debugger is also running X Windows server
software, you can display logic analyzer windows next to your
debugger windows.
Minimum Requirements
To use a debugger with the emulation probe/module, you need:
• A debugger that is compatible with the emulation probe/module.
Ask your debugger vendor whether the debugger can be used with an HP
emulation probe (which is also known as a “processor probe” or “software
probe”) or an HP emulation module.
• A LAN connection between the PC or workstation that is running the
debugger and the emulation probe or the HP 16600A/16700A-series logic
analysis system (which contains the emulation module).
Emulation probes or emulation modules communicate with debuggers
over the LAN.
