Silicon real estate advances have inevitably led to the complete integration of microprocessor subsystems together with custom hardware and software on single devices. This advancement has brought ...

The J-Trace connects to your host computer using a so-called full-speed (12-Mbit/s) USB 2.0 (Universal Serial Bus) connection. The unit includes a 2-Mbyte- trace buffer. No power supply is required, ...

Of course I will be in trouble once this blog is posted. This post is about hardware/software debug, and I tried to layer a set of different levels for the scope and applicability of debug. I counted ...

SoC design is complex. It involves both software and hardware design that calls for a higher level of abstraction to ensure accurate verification. Transaction-level verification and debug offers this ...

XDS560(TM) Trace Exposes the Most Difficult to Find Real-Time Intermittent Bugs and Allows Users to Save Valuable Time Diagnosing High-Performance Embedded Applications MOUNT LAUREL, N.J., March 19 ...

A pair of researchers from Positive Technologies claim that Intel's newest generation processors are susceptible to a USB port debugging vulnerability that could allow an attacker to take over full ...

Tachyum has revealed that it has completed testing of hardware debugging features on the FPGA prototype of its Prodigy Universal Processor. Testing was conducted with the GNU Debugger (gdb), a widely ...

It’s funny how when you think you know what a company does, it goes and talks to a customer and comes away with something even more interesting. Such is the case with UltraSoC, which just came out ...

Debug LEDs are good at debugging. Who knew?

Attackers with access to a device can take control over a target's computer and bypass all local security systems by abusing a hardware debugging interface included with Intel CPUs, which in recent ...
