Overview

Remote Debug using Vivado Design Suite

Xilinx Virtual Cable (XVC) is a TCP/IP-based protocol that acts like a JTAG cable and provides a means to access and debug your FPGA or SoC design without using a physical cable. 

This capability helps facilitate hardware debug for designs that:

* Have the FPGA in a hard-to-access location, where a "lab-PC" is not close by
* Do not have direct access to the FPGA pins – e.g. the JTAG pins are only accessible via a local processor interface
* Need to efficiently debug Xilinx FPGA or SoC systems deployed in the field to save on costly or impractical travel and and reduce the time it takes to debug a remotely located system

Key features

  • Have the FPGA in a hard-to-access location, where a "lab-PC" is not close by

OCP SoC instrumentation solutions involve more than just trace

On-chip analysis can effectively improve our understanding of complex embedded systems, such as Open Core Protocol (OCP)-based architectures. For OCP level systems integration, real-time performance analysis is often a priority for getting products to market quickly, and embedded instrumentation analysis that can be used with emulators, prototypes, and production silicon can provide systems information and control that go beyond simulation based analysis
