SourceGate Simulator

(No longer supported, limited prodution)

Specifications

Complete System Simulation
· Simulate I/O, memory devices, interrupts, and exceptions
· User defined script files control I/O device characteristics
· Debug console window available for console I/O
· User can specify processor clock speed
· I/O ports and Debug Console data can be logged

Speed
· User defined simulation speeds of 8MHz, 16MHz, 20MHz, 25MHz, and 33MHz

Breakpoints
· 128 CodeView breakpoints located in RAM
· 4 hardware breakpoints can be set on any memory address or instruction
· A breakpoint can be a logical event sequence with a specified pass count

Events
· 4 Events can be any combination of addresses, address ranges, specific data values, data ranges, and status bits
· Status bits support read/write, program/data accesses, and processor bus control signals
· One 32-bit event controlled interval timer

Sequencer
· Combined with the event system, complex break and trigger points can be defined using AND, OR, THEN, and WITHOUT statements
· Event pass counts from 1 to 65,535 influence conditional operations

Triggers
· 0 to 64K trace cycles of delay can be used to capture data around any point of interest

Trace
· Dual 16K cycle deep trace buffers
· Shows any combination of source, disassembly
or state information that includes cycle, address, data, control signals, and 50ns time stamp
· Freeze buffer allows viewing while emulating
· Qualification using a single event or conditional sequence to capture only cycles of interest
· Full search capability

Performance Analysis
· Simulated with 50ns resolution
· Code coverage with source and assembly display
· Displays min, max, & average times of execution
· Data can be displayed in raw or histogram format
