Hi,
Any suggestions for a cycle accurate simulator for Cortex-M devices other than Keil. We are currently using Keil uVision and came across some issues regarding the timing of a routine and would like to try another option.
What we are looking for is an instruction set simulator that can accurately report timing of the actual hardware.
Thanks,
HBL
Hi Rob and Alban, thanks a lot for following up on my post. I took a look at the CDS website and it seems that they provide hardware (RTL) models for SoC designs. We are looking for a software simulator similar to Keil or OVPsim (which is not cycle-accurate). Any other options?
Hi Hanni,
I see Bill from Carbon has replied with more detail. The ISSs from ARM for the Cortex-M family (in MDK and Fast Models) provide full functional accuracy but are loosely timed (LT) models. They would not give you the accurate timing that you are looking for.
Rob.
Thanks Rob, that explains why we are having trouble correctly timing some of the routines in our application.
