The HMI SPS-2000 in-circuit emulators provides the user with a state-of-the-art development tool for PowerPC and 68060-based designs. Real-time emulation up to 80MHz, multi-level breakpoint capability with delay, and hardware-based software performance analysis are just a few of the many features of this amazing product.

Specifications

Advanced Technology Design
· Fully integrated multi-level sequencer logic and hardware-based performance analysis
· Pods can be changed in order to support additional processors
· Backplane based design for high reliability and easy in-field service
· Software updates via Flash firmware

Speed
· Real-time emulation up to 80MHz

Breakpoints
· 128 breakpoints can be set on any memory address or instruction located in RAM, ROM, PROM, or Flash
· Can be virtually any complex event sequence

Events
· 8 Events can be any combination of addresses, address ranges, specific data values, data ranges, status bits, or an external trigger
· Status bits support read/write, program/data accesses, and processor bus control signals
· Four 24-bit timer/counters can be driven by a variety of sources for use in sequencer logic

Sequencer
· Supports AND, OR, NOT conditions in multiple Boolean combinations
· 8 levels of logic support up to 16 "IF-THEN-DO" sequences per level
· Extensive "Do List" allows for multiple actions including breaking, triggering, stop/resume trace recording, start/stop timer, go to next level, etc.

Triggers
· 0 to 16 million trace cycles of delay can be used to capture data around any point of interest
· 8 external inputs are traced and can be used for triggering
· Pulse and Level BNC outputs for triggering other test equipment

Trace
· 128K cycles deep x 136 bits wide
· Shows any combination of source, disassembly or state information that includes cycle, address, data, control signals, and a 30ns time stamp
· Freeze buffer allows viewing while emulating
· Trace can be qualified on any event
· Full search capability

Overlay Memory
· 512KB standard (1, 2, or 4MB optional)
· 512KB Shadow RAM standard (2MB optional)
· Software configurable memory mapping

Performance Analysis
· Hardware-based with 30ns resolution
· Code coverage with source and assembly display
· Displays min, max, & average times of execution
· Data can be displayed in raw or histogram format
· Included with standard system
