  • Abstract
    This paper briefly describes the picoArray™ architecture, and in particular the deterministic internal communication fabric. The methods that have been developed for debugging and verifying systems using devices from the picoArray family are explained. In order to maximize the computational ability of these devices, hardware debugging support has been kept to a minimum and methods and tools developed to take this into account.
