13.2Diagnostics

13.2.1In-Target Probe (ITP)

The ITP connector supports the use of a tool that helps you observe and control the step-by-step execution of your program for debugging hardware and software. Debugging includes finding a hardware or software error and identifying the location and cause of the error so it can be corrected.

To maximize the development and delivery of mission-critical tools, we works with third party vendors to develop and deliver specific tools. The following vendors provide in- circuit emulation hardware and software:

American Arium* currently develops in-circuit emulation and run control tools for Intel processors.
