AET capability can be used to debug complex problems as well as understand performance characteristics of user applications. AET provides the following capabilities:
- Hardware Program Breakpoints: specify addresses or address ranges that can generate events such as halting the processor or triggering the trace capture.
- Data Watchpoints: specify data variable addresses, address ranges, or data values that can generate events such as halting the processor or triggering the trace capture.
- Counters: count the occurrence of an event or cycles for performance monitoring.
- State Sequencing: allows combinations of hardware program breakpoints and data watchpoints to precisely generate events for complex sequences.
