Texas Instruments C6000 Debugger & Trace
Achieving Time to Market for C6000 applications through debugging efficiency.
◆ C6000 DSP core used in complex SoCs integrated with Arm and other cores from standalone Used for audio and video processing and radar data processing in automotive applications. ◆ TRACE32 to support debugging efficiency - Full support for on-chip breakpoints - Non-intrusive monitoring of application performance using benchmark counters - Simultaneous debugging of the 6000 DSP core and other cores (Arm, PRU, ARP32) in a multi-architecture SoC with a single probe - Supports both parallel/serial tracing supported by TI Direct Trace or Arm's TPIU - Also supports on-chip tracing - Supports multi-core tracing, recording and analyzing dynamic interactions between multi-cores ◆ Other features of TRACE32 - The debugging hardware is not exclusive to C6000 and can be used with other devices, making it a worthwhile investment for continued use. The basic license can be additionally used for other devices as well.
basic information
◆Basic Debugging System Consists of "PowerDebug" and "DebugProbe" for target connection ☆PowerDebug - PowerDebugE40 (Entry model) - PowerDebugX50 (High-end model) ☆DebugProbe - Debug all C6000 DSP cores and cores other than C6000 (Arm, PRU, ARP32) simultaneously with a single debug probe - Unleash the power of C6000 on-chip breakpoints and all their functionalities to control the application - Use the Benchmark Counter Unit (BMC) to non-invasively monitor and fine-tune application performance. ◆Trace Extension You can extend PowerDebug to add tracing functionality to the basic debugging features. PowerTraceIII: Parallel trace PowerTrace Serial2: High-speed serial trace ◆Logic Analyzer Extension ☆In addition to trace extension, it can simultaneously capture external digital signals This allows for synchronized analysis of trace signals and logic signals, making it effective for hardware/software co-investigation.

Detailed information
-
PowerDebug E40 This is the entry-level debugger unit. It provides performance that strongly supports both simple and complex debugging tasks. It can be connected to a Host PC via USB 3.0.
-
PowerDebug X51 This is a high-end model debugger. It is a high-performance, modular, and future-proof debugging controller. Off-chip trace is expandable. It can be connected to the Host PC via USB 3.0 or Ethernet (2.5 Gbit/s).
-
DebugProbe This is a debug probe for C6000. It connects to the debugger main unit (E40 or X51) and is used for connection with the target device. It enables basic debugging. An optional conversion adapter for different connector shapes is available.
-
PowerTrace III is a trace expansion module. The connection to the device is parallel. It also supports high-speed serial tracing such as Aurola/HSSTP. The built-in trace memory is 8 GBytes. It is also possible to stream trace data to the Host PC. It is used by connecting to the expansion port of the X51 debugger.
-
PowerTrace Serial2 is a trace expansion module. The connection to the device will be high-speed serial. It supports Aurola/HSSTP/PCIe Gen2/3/4. The onboard trace memory is 8 GBytes. It is also possible to stream trace data to the Host PC. It is used by connecting to the expansion port of the debugger X51.
-
C6000 Parallel Preprocessor It is inserted between the trace module and the target during parallel trace connection to shape data and add timestamps during tracing. It is used in connection with devices like PowerTraceIII.
-
C6000 Serial Preprocessor It is inserted between the trace module and the target during serial trace connection to shape the data and add timestamps during tracing. It is used by connecting to PowerTrace Serial2, etc.
