Embedded Performance is to provide development tool support for the RC32438 processor, the newest member of the IDT Interprise family of integrated communications processors

Together, the companies demonstrate how an intelligent debug probe complements and extends on-chip debug facilities to provide greater control and visibility of the hardware and software operation, resulting in a faster debug cycle and improving time to market. EPI's EDB source level debugger and Majic intelligent EJTAG debug probe, combined with a broad complement of debugger APIs, provides the industry's most comprehensive support for all phases of system development.

In addition to EDB, the Majic Series supports the most popular third-party debug tools, including MontaVista Linux Professional tools, GNU GDB and Wind River Tornado.

This allows developers using the IDT processor to take advantage of the intelligence of the Majic Series probes while maintaining a familiar user interface.

The Majic intelligent debug probe connects to the host-based debuggers using a 10/100Base-T Ethernet or a high-speed serial port.

When used in an Ethernet environment, it is ideal for remote debug operations and features fast code download.

In addition to supporting the newer IDT RC32438 device, the EPI EJTAG tools support all the devices within the IDT Interprise processor family, including the RC32355 and RC32351 processors targeting CPE applications, and the RC32332, RC32333 and RC32334 processors targeting gateway and Ethernet switching applications.

Other features of the Majic family include a logic analyser triggering interface, programmable JTAG clock speeds, support for adaptive clocking technology, and a long list of self-test and hardware test capabilities.
