Debug system targets multiprocessor design

Abstract: With the cross-qualification, cross-triggering and cross-alignment of data offered on a Software Analysis Workstation, designers can handle multiple-microprocessor systems. Multiple microprocessors are creating new challenges for both hardware and software designers. In the area of design tools, systems with single microprocessors and single debugging instruments are the norm. As a result, engineers are spending valuable time just configuring these tools into an integration- and debug-system for multiple-microprocessors applications. To find and solve problems quickly, system designers must have development tools that work well together, showing a broader view of the system under test than any single instrument could provide.
