CoreSight delivers debug and trace for tomorrow's systems

Debugging and optimizing software is always a demanding job.  As today's  systems become more complex the task of providing a suitable debug and  trace solution becomes increasingly challenging - yet it's more  important than ever.  Without comprehensive insight into the system's  behaviour debug and optimization is incredibly difficult. Years ago ARM  developed debug logic, known as embedded ICE, to provide developers with  a way to gain access to the heart of their system and see how the  software and hardware interact:

This was the beginning of the CoreSight  debug architecture that has gone on to provide a comprehensive range of  debug & trace solutions that are present throughout a broad range  of today's platforms.  Things have changed dramatically and even a  relatively simple system of today has a broad range of debug & trace  components:

Designing  and delivering debug and trace solutions for complex systems is about  to get a whole lot easier.  In the past CoreSight has supplied design  kits where a range of debug and trace components are supplied  pre-configured and tailored for specific processors.  At Embedded Systems Conference (ESC) San Jose this year ARM will unveil its next generation of CoreSight products  that make creating powerful, bespoke debug & trace solutions faster  and easier than ever!  Visit the ARM stand #1308 at ESC to find out more  or come along to our session on Wednesday for a detailed overview.
