ARM SIMULATOR (v4.6.10.

0) SPRS397- Aug 2007


features

Integrated with Code Composer Studio with unified loader support for both Microsoft Windows and Linux platforms Pin connect for injecting interrupts to peripherals Advanced profiling Ease of configuring the simulator through enhanced Code Composer Studio setup Full instruction set architecture for ARM11, ARM9e, Cortex M-3, and Cortex R-4 simulators Endianness (Little, Big, BE-8: byte invariant; and BE-32: word invariant) Cycle count accurate simulator (but specific for ARM968 simulator) Protocol memory compliant interfaces (but specific for Cortex M-3 and ARM968 simulator)

description ARM simulators are available with the Code Composer Studio for ARM based devices. The complete instruction set is modeled for ARM11, ARM9e, Cortex M-3, and Cortex R-4 simulators. ARM simulators support device level features such as, profiling, cycle accuracy, pin or port connect, and simulator analysis. ARM simulators have been validated for correctness. ARM968 simulator has been validated for cycle accuracy against cycle accurate simulators provided by ARM. Functional device simulators (ARM 11, Cortex M-3, and Cortex R-4) for ARM based devices model the functionality of peripherals without accounting for cycle effects. They are fast and can be used for application validation and cache analysis.
