7.20 Emulation Features and Capability

7.20.1 Advanced Event Triggering (AET)

The C6474 device supports Advanced Event Triggering (AET). This capability can be used to debug

complex problems as well as understand performance characteristics of user applications. AET provides

the following capabilities:

•

Hardware Program Breakpoints: specify addresses or address ranges that can generate events such

as halting the processor or triggering the trace capture.

•

Data Watchpoints: specify data variable addresses, address ranges, or data values that can generate

events such as halting the processor or triggering the trace capture.

•

Counters: count the occurrence of an event or cycles for performance monitoring.

•

State Sequencing: allows combinations of hardware program breakpoints and data watchpoints to

precisely generate events for complex sequences.
