ARM Introduces MultiTrace Debug Solution
CAMBRIDGE, U.K. and SAN JOSE, Calif.----Sept. 26,
2000--ARM ((LSE:ARM); (Nasdaq:ARMHY)), the industry's leading provider
of 16/32-bit embedded RISC microprocessor solutions, Tuesday
introduced the MultiTrace(TM) trace port analyzer, a new component in
ARM's RealView(TM) debug solution for deeply embedded processor cores.
With the addition of this new debug element, ARM is able to
provide developers with complete system-on-chip (SoC) development
support for ARM® core-based systems, providing a consistent and
comprehensive debug solution that significantly reduces the time and
costs typically associated with the use of multiple development tools
and user interfaces.
ARM's RealView debug solution includes three key technology
suites: RealTrace(TM), RealMonitor(TM) and RealControl(TM). The
MultiTrace analyzer is the external collection unit for ARM's
RealTrace suite, passively collecting information from ARM Powered(TM)
SoC solutions containing an Embedded Trace Macrocell (ETM). The ETM
monitors the ARM instruction and data busses at full core speeds,
using the MultiTrace analyzer to buffer the collected information
before transmitting to the Trace Debug Tools, where the traced
information is displayed to the user.
``As a leader in the embedded microprocessor industry, ARM
continues to provide developers with everything they need to
efficiently and effectively develop ARM Powered applications, from
operating systems and application software to design support and
development tools,'' said John Sharp, Development Systems product
manager for ARM. ``The introduction of the MultiTrace analyzer
completes the RealTrace element of our RealView debug solution and
will provide the 15+ partners having already licensed our ETM
technology with the real-time debug support they need to get their ARM
core-based products to market as quickly as possible.''
ARM's MultiTrace unit will be available from the end of November.
Pricing is $4,500 per development seat. For more information on the
MultiTrace unit or the complete RealView debug solution, visit
