Ashling Microsystems Announces New High Performance Debug and Trace Probe for ARM devices

October 24, 2011 -- To coincide with the 2011 ARM Technology conference in Santa Clara CA, Ashling Microsystems has launched a new high performance Real Time Debug and Trace Probe for ARM™devices

The new Vitra-XD Debug Probe is the world’s highest performing Debug Probe for Embedded Development on ARM™ devices. With Trace capture rates up to 400MHz DDR and a massive 504GB on-board Trace storage memory Vitra-XD allows Extended Trace Capture (users can record time-stamped data for up to 1564 hours) and non-intrusive Software Profiling and Code-Coverage (no code instrumentation required).

Vitra-XD is used in conjunction with PathFinder-XD, Ashling’s Eclipse based C/C++ source-level debugger.

Commenting on the product release, Hugh O’Keeffe, Engineering Director of Ashling Microsystems, said “The Performance and Trace capacity of Vitra-XD are unprecedented in the Development Tools industry. We believe Vitra-XD will advance the state of the art for Software Debug and Analysis tools for complex, performance critical and safety critical applications where software reliability is of the utmost importance and cannot be compromised.”
