Part Number: AM2434
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SEGGER

Tool/software:

Hi Team,

What are the requirements and setup for capturing instruction/execution traces from Cortex-A53 cores? Specifically:

What trace interfaces are available for A53 cores (ETM/PTM)?
Which debug probes support trace capture for A53 cores?
Can SEGGER J-Link be used for A53 core tracing? If not, what are the recommended alternatives?
What trace buffer/bandwidth requirements should I consider?
What software tools are needed for trace collection and analysis?"

Thanks
Manish

Hi Manish,

1. ETM interface is available for A53SS0, please refer to section 13.3.9 A53SS0 Debug in TRM for more information.

2. We have XDS560v2 Debug Probe, you can go through this link and see which debug pro fits your requirement: software-dl.ti.com/.../emu_xds560v2.html

3,4,5. Unfortunately, AM243x does not support SEGGER System View at this point, for alternatives you can refer to the link shared in point 2. You will also find other information you requested here on the product page of a particular debug probe. You can use these XDS560v2 debug probes with CCS.

Best Regards,

Meet.
