AGBT-based Trace Port
The trace port setup is fully integrated in TRACE32. No separate configuration is required for common
TRICORE architectures.
Serial NEXUS-based Trace Port
The trace port setup is fully integrated in TRACE32. No separate configuration is required for common
NEXUS architectures like QorIQ, MPC57xx and RH850.
PCIe-based Trace Port
The PowerTrace Serial can be used to trace many different architectures. Each architecture requires its own
configuration on the target side to configure the target device to send trace information via PCIe.
A common trace setup consists of the following parts:
TRACE32 start-up
•
Connection of system modules
•
Establishing host connection
•
Starting TRACE32 PowerView
TRACE32 setup
•
Debug and trace port connection
•
CPU (selection, system mode,...)
•
Trace logic (base address, filter,...)
•
Trace port
Target setup
•
Configuration of PCIe root complex and trace source
•
Peripheral (external buffer enable,...)
•
GPIO/trace port (PLL, pin manager,...)
•
Application (frequency, I/O setup,...)
Trace port test
•
Check trace channel state and correct data recording
