Emulation Modules
Emulation Control Interface
The emulation control interface is
accessed from the power up screen of
the Agilent 16700 Series system. The
interface is included with the Agilent
E5901A/B emulation modules.
Designed for hardware engineers,
this graphical user interface provides
the following features:
• Control over processor execution:
run/break/reset/step.
• Register display/modification.
• Memory display/modification in
various formats including disas-
sembly for code visualization.
Memory modification or memory
block fill can be done to check
processor memory access or to
reinitialize memory areas.
• Multiple breakpoint configuration:
hardware, software, and processor
internal breakpoint registers.
• Code download to the target.
• Command scripts to reproduce
test sequences.
• The ability to trigger a measure-
ment module on a processor break
or to receive a trigger from the
logic analysis system’s measure-
ment modules.
Integrated Debugger Support
When the hardware turn-on phase is
completed, the same Agilent emula-
tion module can be connected to
high-level debuggers for C or C++
software development.
You can achieve the functionality of
a full-featured emulator by using a
third-party debugger to drive the
installed Agilent emulation module.
This gives you complete microproces-
sor execution control (run control).
