overview

C-TAC Plus combines the two most successful ITCN technologies,
C-TAC and SystemTrace, to provide a high performance, next generation, embedded system analyzer and debugger tool.
C-TAC Plus provides simultaneous, assembly-level, Real-Time Non-Intrusive (RTNI) monitoring of processor execution and memory access activity and a console interface for processor controls.

C-TAC Plus consists of two major components:

  • Acquisition Board Set (EDAC-CP, PIM-CP)
  • LRU Interface (PAD-CP, TLS)

Systems are combined for simultaneous monitoring of multiple targets.

The Acquisition Board Set and LRU Interface components are customized to provide a turnkey solution for legacy system support. Customization for legacy systems typically includes changes to firmware and programmable logic, and do not normally require hardware modifications. Connection for the LRU under test may be made using custom circuit boards or cabling. This is also included with the C-TAC Plus system.
