Virtual Clone - High Performance Virtual Emulator at low cost!

 

The Virtual Clone provides the developer of application programs with the highest performance / cost ratio for inserting Probes and analyzing Traces at Breakpoints.

Thanks to our patented “Emulation by Core Externalization”, the microprocessor embedded in the SoC is in idle mode during the emulation and replaced by a software simulator (ISS) running on a PC

The Virtual Clone is available for Flip8051/251 processors.

Key Benefits

  • Low cost emulator for ASIC/ASSP Users
  • Emulation Trace & Control are directly on PC which saves up to 10,000 Gates
  • The same emulator is re-usable resulting in cost saving in case of multiple usage of the core:
    with any ASSP/SoC embedding the same µP
    In case of SoC upgrade:
    • If peripherals functions of µP are upgraded, the same emulator can be used
    • If the µP itself is upgraded, the same Virtual Clone can be used
  • High Richness of Emulation features

 

 

Product description

  • An adapter (RLink) is provided for converting JTAG signals to USB serial port of the PC.
  • Triggers for Breakpoints and Complex events:
    Unlimited Software breakpoint and Complex events
  • Several modes of execution control thanks to breakpoints: single step, C-line to line, step-into, step-over, step-out, go to address…
  • Trace memory depth is unlimited.
  • All trace modes available (expect trace on a particular access)
