Tools for debugging embedded systems range from software monitors and simulators, which are independent of the hardware under development, to custom silicon for in-circuit emulation, which replaces ...

An in-circuit emulator (ICE) is an invaluable tool for software and hardware developers alike: and for anyone about to develop a microcontroller-based embedded system the ability to run and debug code ...

Microchip has unveiled the MPLAB ICE 4 full in-circuit emulator, debugging and programming development tool for its PIC and AVR microcontrollers (MCUs), dsPIC, digital signal controllers (DSCs), and ...

Mentor Graphics introduced earlier this year a hardware emulation platform for ARM Cortex-A9 MPCore processor-based system-on-chip (SoC) device designs. Called isolve, this platform will be used to ...

Despite the third adjustment to Moore’s Law, which now sets the doubling of transistors in an integrated circuit to about two years, the march continues on toward larger and larger designs/devices.
