  • Patent number: 11442844
    Abstract: An integrated circuit includes a high-speed interface configured to communicate with a host system for debugging and a debug hub coupled to the high-speed interface. The debug hub is configured to receive a debug command from the host system as memory mapped data. The integrated circuit also includes a plurality of debug cores coupled to the debug hub. Each debug core is coupled to the debug hub by channels. The debug hub is configured to translate the debug command to a data stream and provide the data stream to a target debug core of the plurality of debug cores based on an address specified by the debug command.

  • Patent number: 10445219
    Abstract: Extracting transaction level information from an interface can include tracking transactions of an interface within an integrated circuit (IC) using a plurality of counters within the IC, wherein the counters generate counter data corresponding to the transactions. The method can include capturing signals of the interface as trace data for a trace window using an integrated logic analyzer within the IC, wherein a start of the trace window begins after a start of the tracking of the transactions using the plurality of counters. The method can also include using a host data processing system coupled to the IC, determining transaction level information for the interface using the counter data and the trace data for the trace window.

  • Patent number: 10161999
    Abstract: Approaches for capturing states of signals of a circuit-under-test are disclosed. A logic analyzer circuit is coupled to the circuit-under-test and is configured to receive a plurality of probe signals and a plurality of trigger signals from the circuit-under-test. The logic analyzer circuit inputs data identifying a subset of the probe signals and a subset of the trigger signals. The logic analyzer circuit selects the subset of trigger signals for input to trigger logic and selects the subset of probe signals in the logic analyzer circuit after the logic analyzer circuit and the circuit-under-test are active. The logic analyzer circuit samples states of the subset of probe signals in response to the trigger logic and stores the sampled states of the subset of probe signals in a memory.

  • Patent number: 10078113
    Abstract: Various example implementations are directed to circuits and methods for debugging logic circuits utilizing a data bus for communication. According to an example implementation, an apparatus includes a logic circuit configured to communicate data over a data bus according to a communication protocol. The apparatus also includes a logic analyzer circuit coupled to the data bus. The logic analyzer circuit is configured to capture, in response to a control signal, samples of data signals communicated on the data bus. The logic analyzer circuit determines respective pairs of start and end positions of the data transactions in the captured samples. The logic analyzer circuit outputs the samples of the data signals and a set of metadata including the determined pairs of start and end positions of data transactions in the samples.
