Internal Visibility
Internal visibility allows the observation of the internal MCU address and data bus as well as the
determination of the access source and the CPU pipe (queue) status through the external bus interface.
Internal visibility is always enabled in emulation single chip mode and emulation expanded mode. Internal
CPU and BDM accesses are made visible on the external bus interface, except those to BDM firmware and
BDM registers.
Internal reads are made visible on ADDRx/IVDx (address and read data multiplexed, see
Table 21-9 to
show the type of access. External read data are also visible on IVDx.
21.4.2.1
Access Source and Instruction Queue Status Signals
The access source (bus master) can be determined from the external bus control signals ACC[2:0] as
The CPU instruction queue status (execution-start and data-movement information) is brought out as
IQSTAT[3:0] signals. For decoding of the IQSTAT values, refer to the S12X_CPU section.
21.4.2.2
Emulation Modes Timing
A bus access lasts 1 ECLK cycle. In case of a stretched external access (emulation expanded mode), up to
an infinite amount of ECLK cycles may be added. ADDRx values will only be shown in ECLK high
phases, while ACCx, IQSTATx, and IVDx values will only be presented in ECLK low phases.
Based on this multiplex timing, ACCx are only shown in the current (first) access cycle. IQSTATx and
(for read accesses) IVDx follow in the next cycle. If the access takes more than one bus cycle, ACCx
display NULL (0x000) in the second and all following cycles of the access. IQSTATx display NULL
(0x0000) from the third until one cycle after the access to indicate continuation.
The resulting timing pattern of the external bus signals is outlined in the following tables for read, write
and interleaved read/write accesses. Three examples represent different access lengths of 1, 2, and n–1 bus
cycles. Non-shaded bold entries denote all values related to Access #0.
