The Tessent Embedded Static Instrumentation module provides a nonintrusive mechanism for code instrumentation. Software engineers can insert watchpoints in the code that trigger messages on Tessent Embedded Analytics subsystem. This enables execution flow debug, as well as more sophisticated uses such as collecting software instrumentation trace data from operating system APIs. Embedded software can pass data to a debug host as well as causing real-time events to cross trigger with other Tessent Embedded Analytics modules.

All Tessent Embedded Analytics monitors (IPs), can be accessed via a dedicated, secure communication infrastructure. Non-intrusive debug and monitoring using an off-chip host or debugger is facilitated through USB 2, USB 3, JTAG, or Aurora interfaces. Embedded software can drive the system via an AXI interface to create a self-contained on-chip monitoring system.
