DEBUGGER

for CompactRISC

Debugger for CompactRISC
chamaeleo signumiensis
extraordinarius

Chameleon source-level debugger for the National Semiconductor CompactRISC family was specially designed for handling multi-core IC’s or systems running multiple CPUs. Chameleon works with a variety of CPUs and hardware emulation devices over the JTAG, serial RS-232, RS-422, parallel and LAN (TCP/IP) interfaces. Regardless of the debugging interface, the debugger provides a consistent GUI user interface to an embedded project at all stages in the development and production processes. The program is a perfect tool for every level of developer from the professional applications engineer to the student just learning about embedded software development or hardware design.

KEY FEATURES


•		Simultaneously supports multiple CPUs in a single GUI debugging environment
•		Supports JTAG, RS422 and remote emulators over the TCP/IP network
•		Supports National Debugger Communication Interface (DBGCOM)
•		Virtual I/O gives the target CPU access to the host console and disk files during development
•		Builds graphical virtual I/O devices to targets to speed-up debugging of prototypes
•		Drag and drop variables and addresses between windows
•		C and assembly source level debugging
•		Powerful breakpoints, step-into, step-over and step-out in C and assembly level
•		Access to hardware debug features of CPU
•		Variables’ values pop-up when the mouse flies over the source code
•		Display variables according to their definitions (structures, unions, strings, etc.)
•		Multiple windows for memory, source, variable watching, locals, commands, etc.
•		Command mode facility with macros (scripts) for automated debug and testing
•		Context sensitive help
•		Multi-threaded, 32-bit Windows NT/95 application

CHAMELEON

DEBUGGER FAMILY

The Chameleon family of debuggers provides the same and as intuitive as it is consitent user interface to an embedded project at all stages in the development process, regardless of the target system. These debuggers interface with Signum Systems’ USP-series In-Circuit Emulators (ICEs), RISM-compatible evaluation boards, JTAG emulators, embedded monitors and CPU simulators. Chameleon Debugger supports networked connections to ICEs, evaluation boards and embedded monitors using Signum Systems IceServer™ software. In addition, Chameleon can act as a telnet server allowing users across the network to join a debugging session using standard telnet client terminals. Chameleon is also compatible with Viper™ Virtual Interface Panel Environment, a rapid prototyping and custom debug interface construction tool from Signum Systems.
