Arm flags latest CoreSight IP as 'future of debug and trace'

By Graham Prophet , Mar. 10, 2017 – 

Arm has posted initial information on CoreSight SoC-600, its next-generation debug and trace solution. This new technology offers debug and trace over functional interfaces such as USB, PCIe or wireless, reducing the need for hardware debug probes while increasing data throughput.

Historically, Arm comments, SoC debug and trace has depended on dedicated and standardized external interfaces to provide device access to external debuggers, most notably via JTAG (IEEE-1149.1) and Serial Wire Debug. But relying on these interfaces limits the availability and accessibility of debug features to the early stages of the product lifecycle, as these connections are rarely accessible in finished products.
