Abstract :
CodeTEST could be connected to target system with bus or 16-Channel Pod. As common connection of 16-Channel Pod, it is agility, but complexity also. This paper provides about how to use 16-Channel Pod on system of ARM. The interface is designed to be easy to implement, minimize required signals and minimize board space. The hardware assistant instrumentation tags are inserted into source code during the building process, and without affecting the original source. The testing environment is based on non-intrusive real-time required, it could providing verification of coverage, memory allocation and trace analysis on system of ARM for developers. The accurate real-time measurements can also help developer pinpoint critical performance and quality issues. Under the connection research based on ARM, it´s easily to implement 16-Channel Pod on others system.
