visionCLICK

As a Hardware Developer, you know that the board bring-up stage is something that needs to be done every-time that new hardware is developed. You need a solution that will provide a quick and effective way to determine that your hardware is working correctly. Wind River's visionCLICK debugger is the perfect solution, by providing you with the capability to run basic tests to see if the board is "alive" through more advanced tests to check memory subsystems and peripherals on the board. visionCLICK will provide you with the ability to bring-up your board effectively and efficiently, time-after-time.

As a Firmware Developer, you are responsible for developing the BSP, the Drivers and potentially the Boot Loader - which enables the processor to bring-up your OS, load your application, and run it. So, why use "trial and error" or "burn and learn" development techniques, when these tasks can be performed much faster and more efficiently with using an On-Chip Debug emulator and debugger such as visionCLICK?

As an Application Developer, you know the frustration of having your OS crash, taking your target agent connection down with it. More often than not, upon losing connection to the target agent, your standard OS debugging tools have been rendered useless. Whether your OS has crashed and you have no way to debug your target without a target agent, you simply don't have a debug connection due to the lack of serial or Ethernet ports on the board, or you need access to certain peripherals thath are not accessible via the Ethernet and serial ports, visionCLICK provides you with access to the target via the On Chip Debug emulator when there is no target agent running or boot loader installed. Through the WIND RIVER VMI (Virtual Memory Indicator) you even have the ability to identify if you are debugging in either physical or virtual memory.
