PowerTrace
SmartTrace





The PowerTrace or the RISC Trace for the ARM-ETM (Embedded Trace Macrocell) samples all trace data with rates up to 600 Mbit/s per trace channel into the trace buffer. The max. size of the trace buffer is 64/128 MFrames (1 frame per clock).

It supports the Embedded Trace Macrocell (ETM) as well as the Program Trace Macrocell (PTM).

The trace provides time stamp features and can serve the filter and trigger capabilities of the ETM. The system can run on PCs or any workstation.

The connection to the target is done by standardized adapters defined by ARM.




TOP       Trace Modi

The preprocessor for the ARM-ETM provides full support for all ETM modes.



TOP       Speed

The max. supported speed for the ARM-ETM depends on the used ETM mode.

TOP       Trace Display

TRACE32 offers a comprehensive trace display and analysis.



TOP       ETM Settings

TRACE32 offers intuitive access to all ETM settings.



TOP       Basic ETM Filter and Trigger

The basic filter and trigger features are easy to use.

  • TraceEnable: Sample only the specified event.
  • TraceData: Sample the complete program flow and the specified data event.
  • TraceON: Switch the sampling to the trace buffer on after the specified event occurred.
  • TraceOFF: Switch the sampling to the trace buffer off after the specified event occurred.
  • TraceTrigger: Stop the sampling to the trace buffer at the specified event. A trigger delay is possible.
TOP       3-States Sequencer

The programming for the 3 state sequencer is supported by a special dialog window.


TOP       Additional Standard Trace Features

Statistic Analyzer

  • Detailed analysis of function run-times
  • Detailed analysis of task run-times and state
  • Graphical analysis of variable values over the time
  • Analysis of the time interval of a single event (e.g. Interrupt)
  • Analysis of the time interval between 2 defined events

Performance Analyzer

  • Long-time performance analysis for functions
  • Long-time performance analysis for tasks
  • Long-time analysis of the contents of a variable or memory location and more

Context Tracking System

  • Single Stepping of realtime programs
  • Local and global variable display
  • Stack frame display
  • Step, Back Step and Stepover
  • Conditional Stepping
  • Display of register variables in trace
  • Display of function nesting with parameters in trace
TOP       Reconstruction of Trace Gaps

A large number of indirect branches or a large number of data transfer can cause an overflow of the internal ETM FIFO. The result is, that trace information is lost. TRACE32 can reconstruct such trace losses with the SmartTrace and CTS.





TOP       Code Coverage

If a PowerTrace is used, a hardware based code coverage can be performed on a 4 x 4 MByte code range. The code coverage includes executed/not executed and branch taken/not taken.
