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, ...

Debugging microcontrollers is both a technical and creative challenge, bridging code analysis with hardware checks. Whether working with Arduino boards, PICkit 3 programmers, or ESP32-powered projects ...

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 ...

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 ...

Researchers at Disney Research and Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) have developed a system for finding computer bugs in small devices that scavenge their energy from their environment and are subject ...

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 ...
