S12SDBG Operation
Arming the DBG module by setting ARM in DBGC1 allows triggering the state sequencer, storing of data
in the trace buffer and generation of breakpoints to the CPU. The DBG module is made up of four main
blocks, the comparators, control logic, the state sequencer, and the trace buffer.
in the trace buffer and generation of breakpoints to the CPU. The DBG module is made up of four main
blocks, the comparators, control logic, the state sequencer, and the trace buffer.
The comparators monitor the bus activity of the CPU. All comparators can be configured to monitor
address bus activity. Comparator A can also be configured to monitor databus activity and mask out
individual data bus bits during a compare. Comparators can be configured to use R/W and word/byte
access qualification in the comparison. A match with a comparator register value can initiate a state
sequencer transition to another state (see
address bus activity. Comparator A can also be configured to monitor databus activity and mask out
individual data bus bits during a compare. Comparators can be configured to use R/W and word/byte
access qualification in the comparison. A match with a comparator register value can initiate a state
sequencer transition to another state (see
). Either forced or tagged matches are possible. Using
a forced match, a state sequencer transition can occur immediately on a successful match of system busses
and comparator registers. Whilst tagging, at a comparator match, the instruction opcode is tagged and only
if the instruction reaches the execution stage of the instruction queue can a state sequencer transition occur.
In the case of a transition to Final State, bus tracing is triggered and/or a breakpoint can be generated.

if the instruction reaches the execution stage of the instruction queue can a state sequencer transition occur.
In the case of a transition to Final State, bus tracing is triggered and/or a breakpoint can be generated.
A state sequencer transition to final state (with associated breakpoint, if enabled) can be initiated by
writing to the TRIG bit in the DBGC1 control register.

The trace buffer is visible through a 2-byte window in the register address map and must be read out using
standard 16-bit word reads.

Comparator Modes
The DBG contains three comparators, A, B and C. Each comparator compares the system address bus with
the address stored in DBGXAH, DBGXAM, and DBGXAL. Furthermore, comparator A also compares
the data buses to the data stored in DBGADH, DBGADL and allows masking of individual data bus bits.
