Ashling's Emulators, Debuggers and Trace systems for Embedded Systems with ARM™ cores

Ashling's Vitra, Genia, Opella and PathFinder development tools support development on all popular ARM™ cores.

Developed with the co-operation of ARM™ Ltd., Ashling's products provide powerful, up-to-date tools for developing microprocessors and SoC's based on the latest ARM™ technology.

The full range of Ashling's development tools provide Source-Level Debugging, EmbeddedICE™ runtime control and Real-Time Trace debugging capability based on ARM™ ETM.

Product Descriptions

PathFinder Source Debugger
Powerful Source Level Debugger for ARM™, based on Ashling's uniquely powerful PathFinder user-interface and ARM™'s Remote Debug Interface (RDI 1.51). PathFinder works with the full range of Vitra, Genia and Opella Emulators and the ARM Ltd. ARMulator™ Software Simulator. Support is provided for all popular Compilers for the ARM™ architecture such as Metrowerks CWARM, GNU GCC, Microcross GNU-X, ARM ADS, ARM SDT, Hitech ARM, GreenHill.

Vitra Networked Emulator and Real-Time Trace

• Very powerful Real-Time Emulator and Trace for ARM™-core development
• Complete environment for development, debugging, optimization and testing for performance-critical ARM™ applications that need Instruction Trace and Data Trace debugging
• Trace memory available in 64K-frames to 512K-frames options (each frame is 128 bits wide)
• Extensive configurable triggers and trace, including External Trigger Out, External Trigger In and External Data Trace controls
• Remote debugging via TCP/IP
• Provides program-load, run, halt, hardware and software breakpoints, register display and modify, and Source-level Debugging
