Thursday, August 13, 2015

Faster boot debug with insight into code execution and data from hardware and software sources SourcePoint® from ASSET® InterTech (www.asset-intertech.com), the leading supplier of software and hardware debug, trace, validation and test tools, is the first debug platform to provide real insight from Intel® Trace Hub to debug the Unified…

Trace debug cuts through the complexity of SoC software, new eBook explains

Wednesday, May 27, 2015

Trace debugging takes advantage of intellectual property (IP) in processors to help software engineers track back to the root cause of a code bug and fix it. A new eBook by ASSET® InterTech, the leading supplier of software and hardware debug, validation and test tools, explains how valuable trace…

New eBook shows how to avoid conflict among embedded test access ports when integrating SoC IP blocks

Wednesday, April 8, 2015

Cores and other blocks of intellectual property (IP) often feature a test access port (TAP). When multiple such IP blocks are integrated into a system-on-a-chip (SoC), their TAPs become embedded. Such embedded TAPs (eTAP) are prone to conflict with each other, which can prevent engineers from accessing IP blocks…
