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…
A highly technical half-day workshop on the newly approved IEEE 1687 IJTAG standard for embedded instruments will be held in multiple cities across the U.S., Europe and Asia. The free workshop is being instructed by experts from ASSET® InterTech and Mentor Graphics®, two companies that provided leadership to the…
Seamless interoperability between ASSET InterTech and Mentor Graphics® Tessent® products for the IEEE 1687 Internal JTAG (IJTAG) embedded instrumentation standard will allow engineers to accurately debug and isolate issues in either a complex system-on-a-chip (SoC) or on the circuit board where the chip has been deployed. ASSET and Mentor…
By supporting the powerful 64-bit version of Embedded Trace Macrocell™ (ETMv4) from ARM® on AppliedMicro®’s X-Gene™ Server on a Chip™ processor, ASSET® InterTech’s SourcePoint® debugger platform will shorten the time-to-market for enterprise systems in the cloud, such as the rapidly emerging microserver systems. ARM’s ETMv4 is part of CoreSight™…
ASSET® InterTech collaborated with SoftIron® Ltd., Southampton, UK, to quickly debug and bring up the industry’s first 64-bit ARM server motherboard based on AppliedMicro’s X-Gene® Server on a Chip™. SoftIron’s 64-0800 is an ultra-low power, high-performance server motherboard for the enterprise computing and data center market. The development team…
Greater visibility into operating system resources and multithreaded programs accelerates debug and helps software engineers deliver tighter, more robust and higher quality code. With support for the Micriµm® µC/OS-II® real-time operating system (RTOS), ASSET’s SourcePoint® debugger gives development engineers multiple views of the execution context at every point in…
Richardson, TX – Historically, verifying the at-speed functionality of serial interfaces on prototype circuit boards has required the system’s functional software. But the functional software is often not ready yet when prototypes arrive. That means delaying the product’s migration into manufacturing. A new eBook published by ASSET® InterTech describes…
Developers get greater visibility into multiple software threads running on multicore SoCs with ASSET’s SourcePoint® debugger for ARM® Richardson, TX, and Sunnyvale, CA – ASSET® InterTech announces the enablement of ASSET’s software debug tools for AppliedMicro®’s X-Gene™ Server on a Chip™ silicon solution, which is being rapidly deployed in…
When software engineers have greater visibility into the context of operating system resources and the execution of multithreaded programs, they are able to accelerate code debug and deliver new products to market sooner. ASSET's SourcePoint® debugger now supports Express Logic’s ThreadX real-time operating system, giving development engineers multiple views…
