Abstract :
This paper describes a microprocessor-based circuit model which facilitates debugging and maintenance of the microprocessor-based circuit. A speed-adjustable mechanism was implemented which enables the microprocessor to execute instructions under either single-step mode or speed-adjustable mode. Through this mechanism, data of a malfunctional circuit can be fetched and compared to reference data
