Overview
Providing complete simulation of all features of Freescale's new eTPU2 including its expanded hardware, functionality, and memory--ASH
WARE's eTPU2 Stand-Alone Simulator
provides a wide range of sophisticated simulation and debugging capabilities
such as an integrated graphical logic analyzer, code coverage analysis,
variable and watch windows, call stack windows, trace, direct register
modification, data verification, and test verification.
The Freescale eTPU2 is a great solution for performing complex timing
tasks. Typical usage's are automotive engine control, electronic motor
control, serial communication, too name just a few. The benefit to
customers is that the eTPU2 replaces custom external ASICS thereby
greatly reducing the total cost of your design. The legacy Motorola
TPU is popular in a variety of markets, and its successor, the Freescale eTPU2, can do so much more!
Our Freescale eTPU2 Simulator is available for purchase either
alone or packaged with the ASH WARE Inc. ETEC
Compiler. See our ordering
pages for details.
Features
- User-friendly interface, which runs under Windows XP, Vista, 98, etc.
- Support for both angle clock and timer functions.
- Powerful C-like script command language.
- Powerful test vector generation language with embedded
loops and node grouping.
- Integrated graphical logic analyzer with zoom control,
scrolling, cursors, windows resizing, etc.
- Watch and Local Variable windows, which allow you to view
and modify local and global variables.
- Function frame window, which provides visibility to the
static local variables for each channel
- Powerful execution control including goto cursor (instruction
or script command), breakpoints, single step (instruction or script
command), step in, step over, step out, step atomic, goto time,
goto delta time, etc.
- Association of ISR script commands files with interrupts.
Script commands files can be associated with eTPU interrupts. When
the interrupt associated with a particular eTPU channel becomes
asserted the ISR script commands file associated with that channel
gets executed.
- Direct register modification. Allows register modification
within the IDE, bypassing the script file.
- Editable Memory window.
- Functional verification. Allows you to define your code
requirements in terms of pin transitions and data flow and automatically
verify your code against these requirements. This will run in batch
mode and will generate PASS/FAIL report files. Great for formal
code verification!
- Code and jump coverage analyses. Helps you meet the requirements
of DO178B by telling you how complete your test cases are.
- External logic simulation. Helps to model the external
system by instantiation of Boolean logic external to the eTPU. Thus
inputs can be driven by combinatorial logic applied to outputs.
- Integrated timers to aid performance analysis.
- Advanced simulated memory model.
- eTPU simulation. The eTPU2 Stand-Alone Simulator includes the
original eTPU simulation model.
- Compiler support. Support for the ASH WARE ETEC C Compiler Toolkit
and the Byte Craft eTPU_C Compiler.
- Trace buffers, allowing you to find source code line of
traced instruction.
Supported Hosts
- Windows XP, 2000, NT 4.0, ME, 98, and 95.
Supported Targets
