Part two explains the workings of the JTAG boundary-scan technology. Part four explains how to use breakpoints, event triggers, and program traces to debug code. Emulation is a technology used in the ...

Modern trace and debugging techniques. IDEs to use for trace and debugging. In computer programming and software development, engineers will deploy debugging tools and processes to find and mitigate ...

Scan is a structured test approach in which the overall function of an integrated circuit (IC) is broken into smaller structures and tested individually. Every state element (D flip-flop or latch) is ...

Back in the day, we'd write some code, compile, execute, see what happened and repeat. That was testing. (Sometimes that's still what testing looks like, for better or worse.) Today, we can do a lot ...

Part two explains the workings of the JTAG (IEEE 1149.1) boundary-scan technology. In software development, perhaps the most critical, yet least predictable stage in the process is debugging. Many ...
