Wind River On-Chip Debugging

Advanced JTAG Tools for Rapid Hardware and Software Debugging

Wind River standards-based on-chip debugging solutions expedite the hardware development process and support life cycle debug and analysis. With Wind River on-chip debugging, you can:

Bring up new hardware quickly—even before an operating system is available.
Ensure that the operating system and middleware run effectively on the hardware early in the development cycle.
Debug operating system and application software without a software agent.
Enhance product quality and speed time-to-market.
Improve overall development productivity by standardizing on a common Eclipse-based debug platform.
Debug even the most complex 32-bit, 64-bit, and multicore processors, using patent-pending technology.

Products

	Wind River Workbench, On-Chip Debugging Edition Based on the industry-standard Eclipse framework and patent-pending hardware diagnostic capabilities, Workbench On-Chip Debugging software combines hardware debugging with a project-based integrated development environment to reduce costs and complexity. It is designed to debug complex multicore solutions, support remote development environments, and deliver seamless integration of hardware and embedded software debug processes.
	Wind River ICE This advanced network-based emulator was designed for today's complex processor environments, including 32-bit and 64-bit single and multicore implementations. Simple enough to support the most basic debugging needs, but robust enough to debug up to eight JTAG devices in a single scan chain, Wind River ICE excels in complex system debugging and multisite development. In addition, the same emulator used in the development process can be deployed in test and manufacturing to ensure end-to-end integration.
	Wind River Probe Wind River Probe provides a high-performance JTAG debugging solution via a direct attached USB bus, using 100 percent of the JTAG bandwidth. This high-performance emulator performs common source-level debugging in a matter of seconds. As with Wind River ICE, the same technology used in development is applied in the test and manufacturing cycle.
	Wind River Trace Wind River Trace dramatically reduces debug time by providing information on the underlying cause of specified defects, even when the target is not operational. The trace solution supports internal and external buffered trace capabilities to identify key events that occur while code is running and also provides address and time-stamp information. Using Wind River Trace in a centralized Workbench development environment supports advanced trace and run control debugging and symbol browsing.

Wind River On-Chip Debugging API and Utility
Targeted to the unique needs of test and manufacturing engineers, the Wind River On-Chip Debugging Utility and API provide a simple yet robust JTAG testing solution. The utility is written in LabVIEW and includes a graphical user interface that allows fast access to the Wind River On-Chip Debugging C-Level API. Its target connection manager, upload/download capabilities, and flash programming wizard facilitate accurate hardware testing when combined with Wind River ICE or Wind River Probe. The utility also includes source code examples to help customize the solution for specific environments.

Hardware Reference Boards
Wind River offers reference development boards to expedite the evaluation and prototype of designs that closely parallel your final application. These boards are fully tested solutions with detailed schematics, board support packages (BSPs), and documentation:

Legacy Products
As Wind River continues to innovate, bringing new technologies and solutions to market, we recognize the need to support our legacy solutions that have been integrated into customers' existing development environments. Whenever possible, we will continue to sell and support these products, enabling customers to transition to new Wind River solutions on a timetable that meets the needs of their project development cycles.
