Logic Analyzer
A debug system can be extended by adding a trace module or a logic analyzer. In some cases, both can be added to provide a very capable hard and software debug solution. Such a system can provide signal trace for logic analysis and protocol analysis as well as correlating power usage to the code operation.
This system extends a debug/ debug and trace system with a logic analyzer module. The extra features provided are:
- Logic analyzer
- Protocol analyzer (USB, CAN, I2C, etc.)
- Energy profiling Time correlation with debug and trace tools

Reducing the energy consumption is important for many embedded designs. Energy is the product of current, voltage and time. Each of these parameters can be influenced by the control software. Therefore software developers have to constantly attempt to find the optimum for these three parameters in respect to their application. Lauterbach offers two probes to measure voltage and current over time.
