Leading-edge, real-time debug and verification tools for Xilinx FPGAs enabling on-chip debug at or near operating system speed
The complexity of today\’s state-of-the-art FPGAs make it nearly impossible to debug designs using traditional logic analysis methods. Flip-chip and ball grid array packaging don’t have exposed leads for physical probing. Xilinx has the solution: ChipScope Pro.
ChipScope Pro inserts logic analyzer, bus analyzer, and Virtual I/O low-profile software cores into your design. These cores allow you to view all the internal signals and nodes within your FPGA, including the IBM CoreConnect Processor Local Bus or On-Chip Peripheral Bus supporting the IBM PowerPC 405 inside the industry-leading Virtex-II Pro FGPA. Signals are captured at or near operating system speed and brought out through the programming interface, freeing up pins for your design, not debug. Captured signals can then be analyzed through the ChipScope Pro Logic Analyzer.
ChipScope Pro also links internal FPGA debug to your Agilent bench test equipment with our new ATC2 core. This synchronizes ChipScope Pro to Agilent\’s new FPGA Dynamic Probe. This unique partnership between Xilinx and Agilent gives you deeper trace memory, faster clock speeds, more trigger options, all using fewer pins on the FPGA.
* Debug any signal inside your FPGA, including embedded processor busses
* Insert low-profile, configurable cores using Core Generator during design, or after synthesis using Core Inserter
* Minimum pin impact for debug, letting you free up pins for the rest of your design
* Debug on Windows, Linux or Solaris platforms including free Evalution version for Windows and Linux
* Debug your FPGA while it\’s on the board, operating with the rest of the system, at or near operating speed
* Leveraging FPGA reprogrammability, identify problems and change your design in minutes or hours, not weeks or months as in traditional ASIC design
* Built-in software logic analyzer helps identify and debug problems, including advanced triggering, filter, and display options
* Change probe points with no re-synthesis required using ISE FPGA Editor, a capability not found in any competing FPGA tool
* Optional link to Agilent Technologies logic analyzers using our ATC2 core and Agilent\’s FPGA Dynamic Probe, for more robust debug, including cross-correlating signals from inside the FPGA to elsewhere on the board
