Debugger Types

This section describes the types of SOFTUNE Workbench debuggers.

Type of debugger

SOFTUNE Workbench integrates three types of debugger: a simulator debugger, emulator debugger, and

monitor debugger. Any one can be selected depending on the requirement.

Simulator Debugger

The simulator debugger simulates the MCU operations (executing instructions, memory space, I/O ports,

interrupts, reset, etc.) with software to evaluate a program.

It is used for evaluating an uncompleted system and operation of individual units, etc.

Emulator Debugger

The emulator debugger is software to evaluate a program by controlling an Emulator from a host through a

communications line (RS-232C, LAN, USB).

Before using this debugger, the emulator must be initialized.

Monitor Debugger

The monitor debugger evaluates a program by putting it into an evaluation system and by communicating

with a host. An RS-232C interface and an area for the debug program are required within the evaluation

system.
