High-Performance, Multicore-Capable JTAG Debug Unit for ARM, Intel, MIPS, and PowerPC Architectures

Wind River ICE 2 is a JTAG emulator that supports the leading architectures with broad processor coverage. Wind River ICE 2 integrates with Wind River Workbench On-Chip Debugging and Wind River On-Chip Debugging API to provide a flexible debugging platform. ICE 2 can be used to debug ARM, Intel Architecture, MIPS, and PowerPC targets for a truly cost effective solution, even if you are using multiple architectures or migrating to a different architecture in the future. Using Wind River ICE 2, developers can see into the system every step of the way, from board bring-up to production and test. Your businesses can standardize on a common, smart, and powerful debugging solution throughout the development process, freeing engineering bandwidth for product innovation.
