LG480 PATTERN GENERATOR LOGIC ANALYSER Products List  
 

Integrated Development Tool
For processor based systems on
FPGA / CPLD platforms

 
Features & Hardware
LG480 Embedded debug Tools operate under Mocrosoft Windows™ and brings together a wide combination of Logic Analyzer and Pattern Generator configuration's enabling design engineers to design and debug an entire digital/embedded system onto a FPGA or CPLD.

The LG480-48 I/O channels can simulataneously output tets vectors capture the digital response in real time. Special SOC-Disassembly pods are available for 8 and 16 bit embedded controllers. SOC adaptor is available to probe standard FPGA/CPLD logic's.

Record data from your system in real time and analyze this data by using your symbolic addresses and High Level Languages Source Code.
 
100Mhz & 128K Memory
For general purpose logic analysis, configure LG480 to 25Mhz on all 48 channels or 100Mhz for high speed critical applications.

If debugging of your application requires very large memory, LG480 offers you 128K memory as standard. But don't waste time for waiting until these large amount of data is displayed if you don't need it. Just reduce the memory depth with a mouse click and save time.
 
Easy to Use Interface
LG480 operates under Microsoft Windows™ 95/98 or Windows NT/2000/XP.

All datat and setup displays offer an intutive setting of parameters and powerful data analysis.
     
Reconfigurable Design Board
A univdersal FPGA/CPLD development breadboard is supplied as an integral part of LG480 to verify system design, adopting a 'burn & learn' verification methodology. The onboard JTAG port connects to user PC to download designs. A variety of connectors and peripherals offers maximum flexibility.
 
Configure the System to meet Your Needs
To meet the needs of your design, configure LG480 as 48 channel Logic Analyzer, or as 48 channels of PatternGenerator, or a combination of Logic Analyzer & Pattern Generator.
 
SOC Adapter
The SOC adaption is a simple way of analyzing internal nodes in FPGAs or ASICSs.
By integration of a Logic Analyzer, Pattern Generator and a scanner module, up to 1024 channels dcan be traced inside a silicon system.
The SOC adaption is scalable up to 32 multiplexed signals.
 
48 Channels of Logic Analysis
The LG480 features 48 channels of Logic analysis with disassembly support for most popular 8 bit and 16 bit embedded controllers with 128K deep trace buffer.

All debugging and trace information can be displayed at assembler level, numeric, waveform or as ‘C’ trace. A unique single probe connection allows collection’s in State or Timing mode.
 
48 Channels of Pattern Generation
The LG480 Pattern generator provides 48 fully programmable data stimulus for active testing of your system.

Pattern data can be easily generated by either directly importing Logic Analyzer traces or by using a variety of built in Pattern generation menu options.

Simulator Outputs in ASCII format may also be imported.
 
Reduce Learning Time
The Trigger Sequence dialog box defines the sequence of occur-rence of the defined trigger events. Up to 4 levels of Trigger sequence can be programmed in an easy to understand If…then… ButIf... Format. An 64K event counter/ delay is also available.
 
Symbolic Debugging
A variety of Symbol convreors is available including a standard LG480 format. The number of Symbols is unlimited. The Trigger Word Dialog Box includes a Sumbol browser for comfortable Symbolic Triggering.Convertor for Xilinx is also included to facilitate mapping and selection of physical channels.
 
Trigger on a Source Code Line
To make debugging even more comfortable, the HLL-Manager has a built-in Trigger window.This trigger window allows setting Trigger Points to a specific Source Code Line. No moer manual Trigger SetUps are required. After loading a suitable Setup, the Triggerword is set directly to the Source Code Line and a recording is started.
 
Powerful Triggering Sequence
 
The squence dialog box defines the sequence of occurrence of the trigger events defined in the Trigger Dialog Box. Up to 4 levels of Trigger sequence can be programmed in an easy to understand If...then...ButtIf...Format. A 64K event counter/delayfor the first level of Trigger sequence.
 
Waveform View
 
This screen shows up to 32 channels and lets you assign names to physical channel, rename signals and group signals into busses. The window also lets you zoom in on an area of interest. Markers and Cursors are provided to show the value at the specific time location.
 
Numeric View
 
In this view, the channels are grouped and displayed as numeric values namely hex, decimal, octal and binary.
 
Poweful Disassemblers
LG480 Disassemblers support most of today's 8/16 Embedded Control and High Performance Micro Processor families. All Disassemblers are developed to meet the requirements of the "Flexible Adaption Concept" and to generate as much information as possible. Pipelined processor activity and non-executed instructions as well as jumops are detected and marked in the disassembler listing. The SOC-Disassembly Pod can also be effectively used to capture real time timing waveforms.
 
High Level Language Debugging
The High Level Language manager correletaes rec orded procedure data to High Level Source Code. The HLL Manager is am independent Windows program and communicates with the Logic Analyzer unsing the software interface of the system. Setting the cursor to a recorded processor address in one of the data views like Timing, List or Disassembler causes the HLL-Manager to displaythe corresponding Source Code Line.
This new technology enables engineers to view broad-level design and then debug an entire digital system - i8ncluding embedded microprocessor cores and the software that runs on them - into an FPGA/CPLD.
 
Pattern Generator
As the compexlity of digital circuits increarses continuously, the cost of device testing has also increased sharply. The increasing complexity of testing has shifted more and more of the testing responsibility towards the design engineers. LG480 with biult in Pattern genetator and Analyzer forms a virtual ATE system. The user prototype of the system accepts simulationoutput and generates commands to configure the pattern generator and logic analyzer. The DUT (Device Under Test) receives stimilus from the pattern generator and generates output response to the Logic Analyzer. The actual response captured by the Logic Analyzer can be fed into simulation software for further processing.The simulation system vcan display a graphical comparison of the expected output waveforms (from the simulation) and the actual waveforms from logic analyzer.

SOC Adaptors
 
The adapterfor SOC Trace enables trace of internal signals in FPGA and ASIC devices. The trace data are sampled inside the chip and send-out on multiplexed channels. The multiplexer is controlled by LG480. If all channels are inside one 32 bit block, the logic analysis can run at full speed. If signals out of two groups is to be sampled at the same time, the sample rate is halved. Maximum of 1024 characters can be traced by the scanner mode. The scanner module has upto 1024 signal inputs for customer usage, 2 contrrol lines for programming, one clock input for the scanner clock, one reference clock output, a synchronization signaland uptp 32 multiplexed trace signals. The scanner module can be written in VHDL/ABEL. Signals of an embedded processor core can also be traced.
