WindRiver ICE 2 supports devices from 32-bitmicrocontroller devices through complex64-bit multi-core processor SoCs.Through its support of industry-leadingmicroprocessors, Wind River ICE 2 canconnect and manage devices. Wind RiverICE 2 provides support for the following:Target connection managementTarget resetDownloading software to the deviceFlash programmingStarting and stopping the deviceStepping (step one statement orinstruction into function calls and stepover or out of a function)Hardware and software breakpointsupportAccess to target registers and memoryAdvanced Run Control SupportTarget Initialization FilesWind River ICE 2 provides developerswith a library of target initialization filesfor supported SoCs and semiconductorvendor reference design platforms.Developers are able to use these targetinitialization register files to quickly bringup their hardware and move on to thenext stage in the project.Hardware DiagnosticsWind River ICE 2 features a suite ofhardware diagnostic scripts that providedevelopers with the ability to runlow-level diagnostic routines on theirsystems for the purpose of validatingaddress and data bus configuration aswell as verifying read/write memory.Hardware diagnostics include a comprehensivesuite of RAM tests, scope loops,and cyclic redundancy check (CRC) tests.Cache SupportWind River ICE 2 provides developerswith access to L1 and L2 instruction anddata cache for supported processors.This data can be accessed and viewedwhen Wind River ICE 2 is used with WindRiver Workbench On-Chip Debugging oraccessed through a rich command setwhen used with either Workbench’scommand shell, host shell, or the WindRiver On-Chip Debugging API.MMU SupportWind River ICE 2 provides memorymanagement unit (MMU) support fortranslation lookaside buffer (TLB)configuration and management whenICE 2 is used with operating systems thatrequire the MMU to be enabled, such asVxWorks 6.x, VxWorks 653, and WindRiver Linux.Synchronized Run ControlWind River ICE 2 provides simultaneousconnectivity to up to 16 cores. Whenused in this configuration, Wind RiverICE 2 can synchronously start and stopall cores or just some of them and setcross-correlated breakpoints so thatwhen a breakpoint is hit in one core itcan stop that core or all cores in thesystem.Internal Trace Buffer SupportWind River ICE 2 supports the internaltrace buffer capabilities provided onsupported processors. When used withWind River Workbench On-ChipDebugging, Wind River ICE 2 can extracttrace data and provide a visual representationin the Workbench Trace view. Thiscapability provides developers withvisibility into what code executes on thetarget.Multi-core DebuggingWind River ICE 2 was designed forcomplex multi-core debugging. Itfeatures Wind River’s JTAG servertechnology that leverages debugcapabilities of the processor andmanages multiple cores with a singleJTAG connection. This allows developersto do the following:Access a single device on the scanchain, or multiple devices simultaneously,to provide synchronous start andstop.Set breakpoints within a single core tohalt the execution of multiple cores.Establish and remove connectionswithout affecting any microprocessoror device on the scan chain.Simplified UsageWind River ICE 2 provides developerswith an LCD panel that displays an IPaddress and enables developers tobetter monitor debug status.High-Performance JTAGICE 2’s efficient use of the JTAG interfaceeliminates slow download times and runcontrol when developing with on-chipdebugging microprocessors. Hardwarelogic that caches common JTAG scanchains improves performance. Wind RiverICE 2 combines this capability with ahigh-speed Gigabit Ethernet connectionand a JTAG/EJTAG/BDM interface thatprovides support for up to 100MHz clockrates.

Remote DebuggingWind River ICE 2 offers the ability tosupport remote debugging, when yourtarget system is not located next to yourdesktop environment. With Wind RiverICE 2, your device can be locatedanywhere, as long as you can connect toit via a network. With its target consoleport, Wind River ICE 2 supports remotedebugging by allowing developers tobackhaul the serial output port of thetarget device via an Ethernet connection.ScalabilityWind River ICE 2 is a scalable solutionthat enables developers to add capabilities,such as trace support, through asimple plug-in module. Wind River ICE 2also provides a broad range of processorsupport with easy migration from oneprocessor family to another via aninterchangeable adapter located at theend of the emulator’s target connectioncable.Target Console PortWind River ICE 2 provides a targetconsole port that provides connectivity tothe serial port on the target hardwarethrough Wind River ICE 2’s Ethernetinterface. The target console portbackhauls serial traffic over the networkto the developers’ desktops and transportscommands back down to the serialinterface. With the target console port,developers are able to debug remotelyand still have access to serial communicationdata coming off the target.Boot OptionsStatic BootIn this mode, a default target driver isloaded automatically when the WindRiver ICE 2 unit is booted. Multiple targetdrivers can also be automatically loadedat boot. The whole process is controlledby a bootapps.1st file, similar to anautoexec.bat file. This file can begenerated by the Wind River ICE 2 unitor it can be edited on a host and copiedinto the flash file system.Dynamic BootDynamic boot is the default mode for theWind River ICE 2 unit. Without thebootapps.1st file, no applications areloaded. Target drivers can be loadedmanually using the Load command or byusing Wind River Workbench, whichautomatically loads the target driverrequired by the specified target in theRemote Systems Explorer view.Additional Custom RegistersThe Wind River ICE 2 unit supports 32custom register groups, with a total of960 custom registers.Wind River ICE 2 Firmware UpdateEmulationICE 2 can be updated with new firmwarevia the Firmware Update Utility in WindRiver Workbench. After the update, theunit defaults the updated firmware tostatic boot.Wind River TechnologiesJTAG ServerThe majority of CPUs available todaymake use of the JTAG scan chain to offeraccess to core components that enablecontrol and configuration of the CPU fordebugging. Access through the JTAGscan chain provides visibility and controlof internal processor resources (hardwarebreakpoints and registers) as well asexternal memory to allow users todownload code or program Flash.Wind River ICE 2, coupled with WindRiver’s JTAG Server technology, allowsdevelopers to control all the devices thatexist in the scan chain via a single tool.With a single interface, this systemeliminates the need to separate the scanchain and use precious board real estatefor additional JTAG access headers.Fewer headers also means reducedrouting complexity and increased boardyield rate.Within the scan chain, Wind River’sleading-edge tools provide the capabilityto simultaneously or individually debugcode on one or more CPUs or coresembedded within a SoC. Wind River ICE2 also supports multiple debug sessionsrunning on one or more hostssimultaneously.Wind River ICE 2 High-Performance JTAGWind River’s JTAG Accelerator technologyenables Wind River ICE 2 to incorporatemaximum scheduling efficiency, yielding100 percent use of the available JTAGscan chain communication bandwidth.Wind River ICE 2 eliminates slowdownload times and slow user responseto user-run control commands (step in,step out, and single step) whendeveloping with on-chip debuggermicroprocessors. With our new hardwarelogic that optimizes JTAG scan chaincommunications, Wind River ICE 2dramatically improves performance indevelopment.Related ProductsWind River WorkbenchWind River ICE 2 is fully compatible withWind River Workbench, the industryleadingopen and extensibledevelopment suite.
