New products to receive literature  fill in request

 

If you are using the GNU GCC compiler you must be interested in this latest tool to simplify and speed up debugging your code.  The Abatron bdiGDB 3000  uses a powerful 10/100 Ethernet connection to your PC for high speed downloads and GDB GNU control via the BDM/JTAG interface to help develop your application. 

 

It is available for the following CPUs:  ARM7/9TDMI, ARM 11, ARM CORTEX-A8 (TI OMAP3430), XScale, 
  Power PC: 4xx,  5xx,   6xx,  7xx,  74xx,  744x, 745x,   8xx,   82xx,  83xx,   85xx,  8641(D), 
  MPC5121, 5200, 55xx, MGT5xxx  as well as the Xilinx Virtex-II Pro & Virtex-4 with up to 4 PPC405 cores.
  Coldfire and MIPS32/64.   The 683xx,  CPU32,  CPU32+ and  MCORE will operate with the BDI2000
 

Because it uses the BDM/JTAG interface to communicate with the target it does not take up the serial interface frequently used by GDB monitors nor does it require the expensive chip connectors needed by ICE.

The BDI3000s Ethernet interface gives it very fast download speed of 1.5MBytes/sec without the target system requiring a debugged Ethernet port and supporting software.

Using GDB and the Abatron BDI3000 you can set breakpoints, single step execution, examine and set memory locations and registers.

bdiGDB can disassemble machine code or be used to debug C, C++, JAVA, Pascal and Fortran

Major features that bdiGDB  adds to GDB are

  • It will support the CPUs internal break registers for debugging code running in ROM or flash. 
  • If you are developing a Linux Kernel then it will work with MMU (memory management units).
  • Also included is the ability to debug in, and to program, "on chip" flash areas and most popular off chip flash devices as part of the GNU debugging strategy (GDB normally assumes all memory is RAM).
  • To see the flash devices supported click on this link 
  • Support for concurrent debugging of multiple CPUs on the same JTAG chain ( ARM, XScale, Xilinx & PPC4xx )
  • Quantities held in stock for immediate delivery.

Windows 95/98, 2000, ME, NT, XP, Vista, Unix and Linux hosts are all supported.
